I keep referencing your pics to see their lines as I create mine. I know first hand what goes into making this happen. Not an easy task.

Thank you guys, I appreciate the compliments. I like the look better as well, I just wish the interior was like the 3IS

Thank you! I've been looking at BBK's but idk which one to get haha. I found a good deal on a K-Sport Front BBK Upgrade but then I'd have to repowdercoat, I was thinking of color matching my paint code when I powdercoat them.

Wow, this is amazing. The front and the back are the perfect look I am going for.

For the rear, I also see the exhaust behind. What type of exhaust is that? With the ISF type of rear lip like this, how do you make it fit with something like the F Sport exhaust? Do you have to cut it short or go back to stock exhaust?

It's actually an HKS Exhaust sitting behind the tips. However, whatever exhaust you choose and would like to use, you're going to have to modify the piping by cutting and welding it shorter.

It looks very nice. I think I have seen a similar car like yours in southern CA, may be it is yours.

For the front conversion, what parts do you need? How much are they and where can we buy those?
