First thing that would have told me it was not an F would be the severely recessed front wheels. I also like how the "S" in the fake "IS-F" rear emblem is upside down. Moron.

The most annoying things about these conversions is the badging. Take that s*** off. Nothing wrong with swapping a few pieces of that's what you like, but just debadge the car if you want... don't throw F badges on there and look fraudulent.

Oh well, his car, his money.

I stand by mine. Sorry not everyone has isf is rich. Im poor yet i find myself driving a great car. Just gotta be smart financially. Regardless what we argue, its dumb to impersonate something that the owner clearly did not have. I dont get that.

Exterior looks pretty good , wondering why he spent so much money on the exterior and did nothing at all for the interior ?

Looks like the individual who traded in the car did a pretty good job and spent a decent amount of $ on the bumpers and fenders. Agree, if you were going to spend all that money, should have spent a little more and upgraded the brakes.

I wonder, how much money he lost in the trade in with this "new" aero kit. lol

Inside wasn't that bad, just needed some TLC and elbow grease.

Also curious as to how many miles were on the car.

Still looks good. Who cares how much someone spent or didn't spend on their car?

It's most def a waste of money except the owner. Just like V6 stangs putting rear Cobra bumpers with big letters spell C O B R A knowing u have a slow V6. I would NEVER feel right rockin a badge of higher class on my car.

At the end of the day to each their own and it's their car so they do what they like. His "F" looks good but I do gotta laugh at that upside down S on the trunk. Gotta get the turned upside down lol. His paint is probably in better shape than mine lol.

Looks like he had the fog covers painted as well. I have always wanted to see what that would look like.
