SUBSCRIBED!! I have been wanting to do this conversion forever, just never could wrap my head around how you would modify the front part of the fender to be short enough to incorporate the OEM hood. GL, very anxious to see your progress

No one has done this conversion before, they have all used the IS-F hood. This is the first conversion that will use the 2IS hood.

Even with these low res photos you can tell it's a really crappy paint job. Get it done properly!

I measured out the rocker panel and the length on the ISF rocker is 78.25 inches, The IS350 rocker is also 78.25 inches. Im not 100 percent sure without test fitting it but i think it will bolt on and it should line up fine. Here is the bumper with clear before wet sanding and final buff.

I think your measurements are correct. I measured my rocker panel to be 78.25 inches too, and when I went to purchase AIT side splitters; AIT told me the IS-F and 2IS were interchangeable, so im assuming the measurements are the same.
