is there a way to only change the front fenders in the x50? or would i have to change the front bumper hood ect.? this (if possible) woulf be my last mod

 

why not just get the artisan fenders?

 

i would want to do the same ! i really like the look of it

 

meh i dont like it as much... too flashy.. the is F one is perfect.

 

Does anyone know? I remember someone saying you can't just swap the fenders, but I'm not sure.

 

Some guy on here did the entire conversion including the rear bumper. I think you have to change the front end.

 

You'll need to do the bumper and side skirts to fit the fenders.

 

considering my dad owns a body shop, would our lead mechanic be able to make it work? or would i absolutely have to get the bumper/side skirts. im not really a fan of the is F bumper, and especially not the bulging hood.

 

From Sewell, i emailed them as well asking if it were possible, at least with some modification.

 

Hoods not required. The fenders will stick out further than the stock 250/350 bumper.

 

Can anyone confirm this?

 

I think the ISF is 3" longer in the nose to accomodate the 8 cylinder engine.

 

wow! looks like a lot of work! Search the forums for the guy with the white IS who has done it.

 

i dont think anyone has done the fenders, you'll be the first but that also means you'll be a pioneer. however members on this forum have done the front bumper and the back bumper.

 

I did a search of ISF conversion and found project Oreo. He did the front and side conversion and repainted the car matte white.
