did u see the rear signals? the turn signal is sick, how it goes left to right but car is completely wack, althought it has a wald kit, the hood killed it. looks like a fish outa water, too much going on

Not the exact match, but odds are very similar construction judging by the close up/shape.

The tails are nice, but the turn signals are in the wrong spot, and the other mods completely put off the one thing he did right IMO...
If he used these...then he did

The fenders and hood are repulsive.

Yeah, i said they are nice, just weird placement in the reverse portion of the lights instead of the actual turn signal portion...

I doubt that, note those are curved, the ones on the IS were NOT, they were straight/boxy construction.

I think when people put led strips on thier cars, they tend to go all out and make the whole thing look cheesey. I just think his looks good compared to everyone else whos tried putting led strips on thier cars minus the ridic hood.

I will say, however, the turn signal concept is intriguing. It's classy and conserved, yet could provide a little bit of flare during the nighttime.

That's the only positive I saw out of an otherwise riced out "boy racer" mess.

sorry, other than the wald front lip, that thing screams *rice*..... and IS 520? never heard of that one before. maybe it's the new 5.2 liter which is faster than the ISF's 4.6L... lol
