Yes sedan coils fit....however the spring rates are likely incorrect for the vert. You might want to talk with a vendor about going with custom rates.

I did the f-sport lowering springs and shocks.....very pleased with the results.

Sorry, but that hood is pathetic and ruins the class of the car. Where's the massive wing and the rest of the Fast and the Furious crew?

Put it on last night and am still very undecided about it, I've heard a lot of mixed reviews from friends about it, most likely this will be a trial week and it will go up for sale by this time next week.

@TQTran: welcome to the forums!!!! Honestly, IMO the hood is a little too aggressive for the car at it's present state. That's not to say it couldn't work, as it depends on what your intents are with the car.

Nice to see another ISC being modded on though. Not much out there for mods currently, so we gotta work with what we got.

edit: forgot to ask: what part of VA are you from???

Nothing new. I've barely driven it all summer.

I took my wheels off round memorial day...... wanted to do a good cleaning and polish the lips, and was bout to drive it down to Charlotte for the race. Figured it was a good time to take em off

Here it is October and I'm still running on my g-spiders LOL. Shortly I'll be putting the 19's back on......then it will be like the first day I got em !!!! Except this time it's free

LOL. I wish I could've driven it more this summer. The lex isn't my DD, and it was so hot this summer that there weren't many good opportunities to drive it. Then, Hurricane Irene came, which didn't help matters.

But, good news.....I did put my wheels on this evening

Yeah I PM'd them after seeing that they were selling their F-sport wheels. Same response They told me they sold the Lexon front lip, but honestly I'm not a big fan. It just doesn't flow right to me.

You rockin Branew sides and rear? Custom front lip? please do tell. On another note, your car is lookin real clean! Its a shame there arent more of us vert owners out there. Im shooting for my birthday (Feb) to have paint, wheels, and susp. dialed in

I think I might just give in and pick up the lexon lip and have my body guy do his magic cause I dont like the way it looks "as is"

This is what happens when you leave the boards for a while, I miss things like this. I think with a different set of wheels and a different lip, that F conversion would look way better. IF only I had MORE money!!!!!
