I have the body (minus the rear bumper, not trying to go super copycat). It's an IS250 6MT. Let me know what you think! (Yes I know, better fitting wheels)

Looks nice, your M5 is sexy too. Im going to black out the roof like the Beast and do something with the front grill. The rear has too much going on with badges, so gonna look into doing something but I want to keep the ISF clean and simple. Window tint and a radar detector will be first mod, bummer I xant go fast anymore.

I'll post pics of it when I get it back, cage, custom hood and custom front bumper in it.

Good call though, coils, Wald rear diffuser, black roof, and a front lip on the F is always good route. Oh yeah, and a radar detector is necessary ha. The V8 is still fast, I thought at least?

Clean look! I've never seen the F fender debadged , and it looks really good. Were you going to keep the rear as is or add something to it?
