Im in a search for lip kits for my 2010 IS and let me tell you, sometimes i wish i had the 08 model only because there aren't many options out for the 09+ as of yet. before buying the car i was so eager to get the INGS+ kit because at that point in time i thought it was the nicest kit. After buying the car i found out that there was a front face change.. Then i saw the Vertex kit, which WAS my number pick until i saw the WALD kit the other day. The only thing is the rear is so ugly and to me it doesn't suit with the front and sides.

Im thinking of doing either a full vertex and call it a day, or get the wald front and sides and vertex rear. not sure if that will flow well tho.....

here is the picture the turned me towards the wald and made it an option...anyone have an idea of how much these shark fenders are running...just curious..

I must be the only one who likes the 06-08 Wald front lip better haha. Less is more for me I guess. I'm tempted to pick up the Wald front lip, but that would make me at least the third TP in the Bay Area with it.
i think i might be the first to have it here in washington if i do get it

I gotta be honest, I like the 06-08 better.

The 09 look is just too much

I like the 06-08 better. Less busy. Sometimes less is more.
