IS-F bumper looks great. What modifaction did you have to do in order to make the bumper fit? Can't wait to see the finished product as well. What exhaust are you planning on running?

Awesome turnout for the car meet. Love the NSX's

Always great places to eat at Milpitas Square. My fav has to be e-Noodle so far.

i believe in the original thread it was stated that the bumper fits right on without any modification required

That car meet looks awesome. Love the M3, NSX, tC and SIs. Who's vinyled IS is that? I've never seen it on CL before. Thanks for sharing the photos.
that matte white with SHARPY all over the place is UV's car
it used to be MATTE BLACK with WHITE ROOF couple weeks ago

I believe he is waiting to put all his goodies and receive all his sponsorships before a sick a$$ photoshoot

OP,

car came out great~~you just need side skirt, and front lip to compliment your aggressive REAR IS-F bumper

I'm surprised how well that mod turned out. Looks really good. I agree with another poster that an HKS Hi-Power exhaust would fill that exhaust hole up very nicely.

Nice meet pics too.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I'm planning to just save up for the IS-F Quad tips and just slicing off the oem tip to make it look clean. I don't want to have to fiddle around with tabs like dremeling them off or doing more custom work. My goal is to have everything close to oem as possible minus wheels/drop. (Wheels will hopefully come soon ) And yes, the crazy vinyl'ed car is UV's ISX50, I don't even know what model it is anymore lol. It's drawn on by sharpie ... Straight up CRAZY concentration he has hahaha

I wish I could tell you concrete numbers for all the pricing but I don't know them I got into an accident so I had insurance just take care of the bill But my guesstimate would be somewhere around 500 for the bumper and another 500-600 for paint. The price difference between the oem ISX50 bumper and the is-f is minuscule so it wasn't a problem doing that.
