Default What would YOU like to see made for the IS-F?

Since it is pretty inactive in here nowadays, let's discuss about what kind of aftermarket goods you would like to see made for the IS-F, whether it be aero, performance, brakes, lighting, or even F sports or F custom parts made by enthusiasts for enthusiasts. Hopefully some companies frequent this part of CL and will get some ideas, I see so many F owners starving for new parts but nobody really delivering the goods!

I myself would like to see a widebody aero kit, maybe even see production version of the FiveAxis widebody, some more grill options and definitely more ways to let the F's bring more power to the ground.

I also want to see some company reproduce the 09 IS side mirror turn signals, maybe some of the F owners would like to look apart from the typical F crowd with this upgrade.

etc...etc...
