Well I see it as convenience and ease of installation to be honest! It makes your rear diffuser more aggressive because it sticks out a little more. Or else it'll be mounted flush and you loose the aggressive look!

I agree it looks good but I'm just saying not worth the price tag when it's just a plastic cover. For $560 you get a full replacement carbon fiber rear diffuser from Seibon. It's almost $400 for a plastic cover...is just overpriced imo

The Seibon one is a replacement piece.

Worth is a rather subjective. Yes, you could buy a Fiberglass part with some Carbon Fiber over it for $160 more. You could have also bought a BMW 335i for a couple thousand more than your IS350 LOL.

We decided to make something a little different than what was available so this is not intended to be a cheap copy of another part. Our body parts are made of high quality Poly-Urethane and manufactured here in USA (Costa Mesa, CA to be specific). Our parts have never been known for being cheap, but we do have a reputation for quality and service that build value for our parts.

Totally understand where you're coming from. At the end of the day, we buy aftermarket aesthetic parts based on our bias preference of what suits the color and overall presence of our rides are!

Loving the CVTs on the 3IS. If I do get wheels this summer, I'd definitely get the CVTs. Wish I had more Benjamins right now

Looks great. My tires maybe might make it another 10k and then i'm going with the CVT's as well. Can't decide on gloss graphite or the silver to go with the Atomic Silver.

What are your specs on your wheels and tires?

Clean car, and i love the stolen products as well, good quality, looks great, and install is simple.

Word. And thanks for the compliments! You can find my specs on my profile and signature.

There are multiple picture flowing out there with CVTs on different color IS. Search for the CVTs thread!

Here's a quick sunset video of my ride. Man, I only realize how ricey and crackly it is now.. The in cabin sound is amazing tho.. I think I might add the invidia mid-pipe. Right now it's running on a straight pipe.
