The leds can be bought from v-leds.com. they are simple plug n play bulbs. The dome, drl, and parking lights are simple to install. The mirror puddles are a little tricky if youve never done it. If you decide to do any of them i can point you in the right direction.
imho I think the red puddle lights on mrm would get washed out and be dim, you might want to go white. Dome would be fine.

Update to Lip Kits:
Here are the companies that i have contacted about any lip/kit.
Five-Axis
Wald
Branew
TRD built IS350C
0-60 built IS350C
I got only one response from Wald, they mentioned that there is not a high enough demand to go forward with a vert program. that sucks! I should see if they want to make a one off set? i doubt it though.

yea.. i contacted wald a few months back also.. same response.. not enough interest for them to make a kit for the ISC..
Branew has a computer rendered drawing on their japan website.. but nothing has been brought to the table yet. if they do decide to proceed with the ISC kit.. it at least 3 months out.. and thats IF they start now.
Vertex will be making a kit BUT it is still going to be a while before anything hits the market. My guys are keeping close contact with VertexUSA so if i hear anything ill let you know.
Five-Axis is the company who built the kit for the TRD ISC.. but they have already stated that the kit is a ONE OFF. Maybe they will put a different design into production.. You can contact Troy for more info...
0-60 ISC is running a INGS+ front lip i think...

i noticed the kit on the branew site. im not willing to pay that much for that kit.
i have a friend down here that is sponsored by vertex and im trying to get ahold of him. ill let you know if i hear anything also.
Fox Marketing and the 0-60 mag IS-C's both have the ings+1 front lip fitted. i dont know if they have skirts and rears.
as far as five axis, they didnt respond. i went to the contact us page and just emailed them from there. would the addy be troy@fiveaxis.com?

Thanks to Joe Z for pointing me in the right direction. heres an email that i just got from Clark over at VIP AutoSalon. they are producing their lip kit that debut in SEMA on their flat MRM IS-C.
Thank you very much for your inquiry. We are currently in the process of developing that lip kit for production.
What we do currently have available to order is the Branew package. Please refer to the bellow link.

ok.. small update... my guys got off the phone with Branew JP... they are planning on producing the lip kit for the ISC... here are the estimated pricing i was given... a little over 3 grand for FRP... a little under 10 grand for full CF. Pricing that was given was including shipping to CA. so actual retail pricing may be a little less.

^^After review of the Branew kit, i think ill pass on it and wait for something else.
On another note: I didnt have an iPod until the other day and tested the functionality of the iPod intergration in the vert. Now, ive never had that before so i think this is exceptional. I know there are alot of other threads out there that mention how the iPod feature in their car sucks. here is what i see. when i pressed menu, I have tabs at the top that lets me pic my playlists and whatnot. I also have control via steering wheel. Pics from my MyTouch. does anyone else know if the 4 door navs look like this or is this brand new features?

i think people are reffering to that they cant jump to a song that begins with... lets say T.. they have to scroll 5 at a time until the they get to the T section. Personally i think it works fine.
