Do you have any details on this conversion. How much work is involved? Wondering if I could make it work with the wider IS-F front fenders?

Very nice! Super nice conversion plus the fender too. Is this wrap, plastic dip or paint?

I just happen to have a new aimgain full rear if you're looking to complete your set
Thanks. Yea theyre Aimgain fenders. I saw you had that for sale in the classifieds. Id much rather take that Aimgain rear spoiler you've got for sale instead!

Theres a lot of cutting and measuring involved in this conversion. I don't thing it would be much harder to make work with an ISF over a regular 2is

666, what shop painted your car and how much was it? Based on your pictures, they do a really good job. I'm thinking about doing a color change on my IS350 as well. Thanks a lot.

Im a painter at a shop in AZ. So I did all the paint and body work myself. But I can tell you it was about $2000 in materials to do it.
