Default DOWNFORCE kit for the IS-F

After nearly 2 months of development, I finally received my car. Then right after that I headed to AZ for business so now I was here in AZ with no camera but my iPhone4! So I decided to take pictures because I know alot of people have been asking how it turned out. So here they are, don't know if it is too many or not, but better safe than sorry. Remember, don't judge, this is from an iPhone4 .









Picture was extra-sharpened to show quality of carbon.























Reminder, this is a one-off kit for the time being, so if you would like parts, go ahead and shoot me a pm and can I forward you straight to Downforce and I'm sure they'll hook you up.

If you go to Downforce, just tell them you know "ViperVern".

Hope you guys enjoyed!

I live in Valencia/Castaic but travel throughout SoCal from Fullerton to LA to even SD sometimes. But I also travel to AZ as well.

Nice - very nice. The carbon fiber pieces look well made and complement the ISF's design without drawing too much attention.

And I love those wheels.

Car looks great. Although I think the mesh on the back should be black.

Looks badass man! Great look!
I still prefer an even tint for all windows, so that would be my only, nit-picky item.

Looks well made and seems to flow nicely however I'm not a big fan of the mesh in the back. Nice job overall though

I think since its the first verison, based on our feedback I am sure they will incorporate changes if the demand is there.

Thanks man! And I would agree, it's a great design.

It is black, i think it was the lighting.

To my surprise, it actually wasn't that bad.

Yeah, i'd agree, but I thought it might help me with cops in CA and make it look like there's no tint in front.

Yeah, all credit goes to Downforce.

Thanks man. I really like the quality because no fiberglass was used and all carbon and used high quality gel coat to keep the carbon together. It's very nice. And a plus is that it won't turn yellow.
