Default BigMikeIS-F 18 Month Update

Happy New Year everyone!

I was able to take some time this past weekend to have a photographer snap a few shots of the F and it's new look. The next thing I'm waiting on are wheels but I'm having a hard time getting rid of the stock ones

These are some sneak pics taken when the photographer and I first met and were waiting to head to the more fun shooting locations. Hope you enjoy these for now. Comments and constructive criticism are welcome

Nice...is that the "wrapped carbon material" I've seen shops do...or did the mirrors and rear spolier come that way?

Looks great Mike - how many miles on the car since you did the wrap? Any noticable wear and tear yet?

What a great looking IS-F. The roof and mirrors flow really well...

nicely placed CF. subtle and it flows throughout the car. from the side mirrors to the door trim and the blacked roof. great work on making the F that much better looking. i too agree, the stock rims are very nice and very difficult to get rid of- they just make the car that much more pleasing, and aftermarket rims that do that to the F are very rare to find.
