the OP already posted that he's in a different country, where the IS-F is not available; and IF it were available then the difference in price would far exceed how much it would cost him to convert an IS200 to an ISF in his country

OP, props to you on your work. I am going to be on of those who shuts up and will wait to see what the final transformation results in. Please continue to update.
I'm sure everyone here respects the fine work he has accomplished on his IS200. However, some members do not agree with OP misleading people to think he is rolling in an ISF.

Don't put a sheep in in wolf's clothing unless you're ready to bite.

Agree completely.

But there is also a thing of staying in your lane. Someone tells you they've put 1,000 horses into an IS200 and I think its safe to assume that he knows what he's doing. That 1,000hp number comes across this board how many times? I was with you on that sentiment (there were a couple of comments he made that raised an eyebrow) until I saw him post what he says is his previous history. So I'm going to comment on something as trivial as badging? But yet there was not one question to OP on what engine he's about to swap into his "F" (he did say it was going to be faster than the F).

Expanding on what you said above. A wolf doesn't need to be told how to bite, it will when it's ready.

Would it be possible to post a part # list specifically for the front assembly including fenders and skirts?

If I had an F I would actually do a reverse mod. Make it look like an ISX50 and it would be one hell of a sleeper.

Is this the site you ordered your parts from? Are they reliable and how long did it take to get your parts? Im thinking about order other OEM parts but havent heard much about them. Thanks for the info.
