The big modification would around the headlight area but the basic 2IS headlight shape is there. Hell if you look closely where the 3IS LED strip is it resembles the basic shape that the 2IS headlight has so some careful measuring a steady hand and a dremel will do the trick. Once you have that done the rest should be simple.


Also to the OP, I'm not a fan of the 3IS but I have to admit that bumper looks great on your car.
sorry bruh, I must have missed the thread of you already doing this so easily with your dremel...

I'm not going to get the fog lights with this bumper.. as weird as it is, I actually prefer this bumper without the JDM fog lights

Is this bodyshop good at extending the F Sport front to match the width of an ISF?
Absolutely, they can do that too. Just give them a call or go down there with your car and show them what exactly you want done and they'll give you a quote and time frame.

Your body shop did a very very good job, kudo's for taking a risk, it could have easily turned out bad.
