Smile Fabulous Front Lip

Hey everyone, installed my Fabulous Front lip I got last night! What do you guys think? Also what side and rear would flow really well with the Fab front? Thanks!

Looks pretty good. Is that an authentic or replica lip?

No I wouldent dare use 3M tape haha. I took the stock lip off and slid this one into place. The lip had tabs exactly where the stock bolts were so we just used the same bolts.

I bought it from a member here on the classifieds, but I believe he bought it on ebay.

Looks clean. I'd suggest Vertex sides and rear. Most subtle to flow with that subtle lip.

I've just seen your build on your IS250 and your front bumper looks great!
What did you use to build it and How much have you spend on it ??
