Nice long list of mods. Only F-sport equipment your missing are the BBK, chassis brace and engine cover.

You need to correct your mod list for the deck spoier:

JUN-TW (Japan) Carbon Fiber Roof Deck Spoiler. It's not made in Japan. TW = Taiwan.

To the OP: Did you happen to purchase this car with the mods already installed? I seem to remember seeing a car with a nearly identical setup for sale a few weeks ago. Either way, very nice mod list so far. What's next?

my guess is that five axis sprayed the tail lights w/ a matte clearcoat.

javyLSU had the same treatment on his IS-F tail lights.

could be, but I saw on aerotech's website that they have clear matte finish film, I wonder if it would give me the same result.

^^^I may have had a little something to do with this... The tail lights have nothing more than a matte clear coat applied to them. Any body shop can do this for you - you challenge will be finding a body shop that is willing to take on small jobs such as this.

Aerotect's "frost" vinyl will give you the same effect if applied to your tail lights.
