Yes, that's the one...I wanted to see if anyone has one or has seen one in person. The pictures on ebay weren't the greatest

I bought it through a member who's friend was selling it here a while back but is no longer around. Then I saw it on eBay but I don't see it any longer.

Long story short, there was a guy in NY. that tracked his is250 and he custom fitted this diffuser to his car. Took him like 6hrs to get it to fit right. Then he sold the car and sold this to me. At just 50mph you can feel the differance in the rear of the car.

J250, I LOVE that silver carbon! Looks so good, and a nice contrast to the dark interior, especially that steering wheel! Reminds me of our iPhone cases

Default DIY CF Skinned Console

Check it out... a CF Kit, little bit of elbow grease (okay... a lot), a dremel and sand paper. Let me know what you think!
