@sedition. That's because Lexus went full ham like the Toyota models and are over the top ridiculous to compete with the euro market. The new cars have more sharp edges than a Schick extreme.

I have the same opinion, Cars look better when you keep the oem line.

Dont mean to bash anyones thought on this thread about the RCF's bumper on an ISF, but thats actually a legit swap. and He's not the only member on here that has done this swap. here's another member by the name "PoorBong" that has the same swap in white. In my opinion i would change the bumper on the F because i think its perfect already. IMO doesnt look bad at all. enjoy.

Sorry, thanks for correcting me. but i was just going to imply that its an Aimgain bumper but with the same RCF design which if you compare both bumpers theres not much difference between them. except the lower molded lip part. so all in all its not a bad swap for guys that like the look of the RCF front on an ISF.

That's because it has the proper headlights that flow with that bumper design. The detached bull**** thing Lexus is doing with the LED strips looks absolutely hideous.

Sorry guys for posting here but I believe some mods if done right can really change the look of the car.When I desided to make mine I was very afraid at the beginning but the final result is really the best mod I did to my car.
It really made my car so unick that they did a photoshoot for a car magazine

Personally not my cup of tea, but doesn't look bad. As long as you like it that's all that matters!! Looks clean and well done...I just like the IS-F front end better.
