it'd look alright from the rear point of view, but it would require something similar up front. im a big fan of the AC lip alone because its subtle yet still shows nicely on the F. the rear of the WALD is amazing, but personally its suppose to all go together, no matter how busy it makes the front look. props to you if you're goin for that look!

HELL YES!!! AC front + Wald looks amazing! (yes, this is a isx50, but it would look even better on an IS-F since the AC lip looks better on the F)

Not sure....if you plan on painting the WALD rear that it might look ok. Otherwise you'd have CF only in the back which might look a bit strange. Also, the AC lip is pretty subtle, but the WALD rear is pretty wild. Just some things to consider.

^ BTW - That x50 is sick!!

^GiantsFan: Your picture has no relevance here, OP was asking about the WALD IS-F rear and the AC front - your picture shows a typical slamed ISx50 that is un-driveable?

OP: No way I would mix a AC front with a WALD REAR....

WALD screams LOOK at me wild type status while the AC front lip is a subtle clean piece. IF you use those two pieces the rest of your better back it up with the right look meaning proper sideskirts, drop, and aggressive color scheme. Otherwise it will look half-a$$ like many of the other cars that "try"....but FAIL.

As much as I rarely agree with Rick , I agree that the IS is lame....and agree with the rest of his post.

Never been a fan of the Wald set up.

either go wald or ac, but not both imo

and that isx50 is bagged, so it is drivable and i wouldnt quite call it lame. alot of hard work goes into everyones cars to mod them to their own style.

oops... I thought he meant Wald sides my bad...

Oh, and I'm not a fan of the slammed look either... Flush - no camber - with a medium drop is what I think looks best (like H&R for the isx50)
