Okay, Last piece of the puzzle before all the pieces go to paint
Rear Roof Spoiler
Package shows from "Ameba Wings"
They call it the C TYPE Roof Spoiler
Very nice quality ABS Plastic material Made in Taiwan.
Part number embossed on underside read " DG-8426R "
And it looks 3IS may share roof spoiler like RC as you can see they way they marked it.
Found on ebay, probably first one here in the States I believe because it didn't show couple of days before when I searched Same style wing I've seen on 2IS that I'ved loved for a while. Actually was gonna buy a 2IS version and prayed it fit but after measuring knew it was not going to happen.
Extremely happy with this purchase
For those interested in purchasing same one, here is link to same one from different seller on ebay

Here's some test fit mockups

picked up some ijdmtoys 2500k Yellow fogs
edit: *actually don't get these (they are too bright and do not clip into bumper good enough, Go with Winjet or Spyder Brand instead or go OEM JDM
Link to some different brands fog lights for fsport bumper on ebay to purchase
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-5...e%26_sacat%3D0
me being curious, took them all apart to see how they are built
and the wheels finally
popped some Nutsert to the bottom of the bumper so that my new skipper Front lip bolts on sturdy and easy to remove rather than the supplied Nut and bolt from Skipper.
(If you are interested in the Rivet tool I am using in the photos, It is a Astro 1427 Hand Rivet Nut Kit http://amzn.to/2tsra9i )
the test fit.
Off to paint now.

great wheel choice. love your built. i think the step lip wil be easier to clean... i didnt get the step lip and i kinda feel the pain and run my fingers thru each spoke to clean the lip. nice choice in the black and with with matching chrome centers. i got mine in bronze with red caps.

I'm guessing these should be the newest version of the ijdmtoys fog lights, what's your opinion on the quality and craftsmanship of these? Those wheels though.. they look so great, I can't wait to see how they look on your car. Great job! Keep it up and keep us posted on those fogs
