What is behind your grill?? And, where did you get that grill!

Many IS-F users on here has these universal splitters. Easy DIY installation, don't forget to pick up some bolts and screws.

How about building a lip from a material that can take the abuse?

Urethane would but its heavier and would eventually sag. But it also looks like complete crap after you scrape it.

Those are ISS Forged scoops, I'm pretty sure. They've been out of production for a few years.

Did any F owners purchase this? wondering about the fitment and whether these pictures are the actual pictures of the unit, since it says it's universal and supposed with fit other cars too

I managed to grab the last Lexon replica lip from NextMod in Canada.. came to $310Cdn shipped! Thats a pretty cheap lip in my mind...

Edit: Looking at the link above it looks like Nextmod may have more.. mine was $240Cdn plus shipping, might be worth calling them first.
