That is an IS-F front bumper WITH an aftermarket lip. Get a conversion bumper cover for your model yr and it'll mount up fine.

The lips don't fit the conversion bumpers, they have to be modified (at least that's what heyarms had to do). Check these out http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...rsion&_sacat=0.

Ahhhh i see, thats what ive been thinking to the isf style bumper jist afraid that it might not bolt up since i had to do bumper tab relocation. My wheel set up is so aggressive that i feel like rhe front sides dont do it justice. So i was thinking of doing the front bumper, maybe some side extensions, rear side splitters and rhe s4play diffuser.

^I don't see that being an issue since all of the bumpers attach in the same place.

Hmmm im about to pull the trigger but really need help on the lip. Anyone know of who might make a lip that bolts up or anyone know of who might be able tomake it? Its the ebay isf bumper so im sure that will make it more difficult. I do have gfx sides with extensions rear with gfx.

HEY! That is my old bumper you posted. haha My buddy bought it off me.

As others said, the ISF lips dont mount up directly to that bumper. That is a ~$800 Arkym carbon fiber front lip i had hacked up and spliced back together to fit that bumper. I still miss it... lol
