Default ISF Bumpers conversion in progress

Hello everyone!
New member here. I recently bought a 2006 IS250 and decided to customize it. I'm going with the ISF bumpers (stock side rockers) and Ultrasonic Blue paint.
Here is a picture of the vehicle the way I bought it, and as you can tell it belonged to a girl. I'm replacing the rims with a set of Vossen CV3 graphite 20". I'm also planning on adding custom mufflers that resemble the ones in the ISS Forged system.
The car is in the shop at the moment and should be out in about two weeks.

Here are some pics of the work done so far.

Welcome to CL. It's gonna look nice. Try getting a roof spoiler if you're interested. It's on eBay. Since it's at the shop. Have you seen this? https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...Isf+conversion

Awesome!
So you are going with the authentic ISF front bumper as well; IE - you are doing the fenders and side skirts as well? I looked into this a while back and those parts were so expensive I shyed away.

Interesting link. Seems like a cheap alternative to SEWELL Lexus . I didn't see any member pictures on that link that have pulled the trigger on that kit.

I wondered if you ended up selling your IS3 and getting into a 2nd Gen IS. Congrats!

Yes I bought a roof spoiler from eBay, it fits perfect it just needs a little smoothing because the surface looks like orange Peel but its not an issue.

I'm leaving the stock fenders and side skirts because they are too expensive, I was also thinking of doing a headlight conversion but I think $1500 is way too much for headlights.
