I would like one day to see a moulded wide body, I am not sure how I feel about the "riveted" look, it reminds me of a lifted truck.

Well I expected to click this thread and see a pic of some stanced out terrible looking F that has been robbed of all functionality.

What I actually saw was much better than expected.

I've never been a fan of Lexus's red but this car pulls it off really well with the wide body.

Saw this car in person and it looked really cheap. Not a fan at all. But different strokes for different folks.

If the wheels only sit more flush with the widebody it would have been PERFECT!! other than that the Red pulls it off very well and im happy to see a rocket bunny kit on an IS, an F none the less

My thoughts exactly. The car would look fantastic with a widebody, but in its stock shape, it doesn't look bad at all.

Just cop'd the rears off the classifieds, gonna order the fronts next here soon! In the fall when weather turns I'll get paint and start figuring wheel size in the mean time, really debating coils now due to height variations needed, was going to do tokico hts/swift.. This will be a beast since I have the full cwest kit already painted and installed!

I agree that the moulded kit would look better. I dig it though. I like how the flared the already flared fender.

That kit doesn't flow with the body of the car at all.
