I am about to get a gfx rear and sides but I have a 2010 and dont want to drop the 550 on the front lip yet. Do you guys think it would look stupid to have the rear and sides on without having the front? Or should I just buy the front instead of waiting to see if I can find a deal.

I would say go for it. First off you can't beat Sewell's pricing right now of $168 for each. Secondly, they are great looking effects on the IS and blend well with the other stock pieces, so on the street other drivers won't realize you didn't go all out. If they were over the top like a design by Ward, everyone would know if you left out the front. I had the same dilemma. I just got my first IS and didn't know where to start, but they seemed like to good of a price to pass up. I just put on the sides last weekend and plan on setting up the rear Friday. I'm real happy with the results so far. My F-Sport intake should be in tomorrow. If you decide to get them, throw up some pics when they are on.

well I'm gonna pick up the sides and rear for $100 each from Westminster then gonna get them painted to obsidian for $250. I am gonna get the front eventually but wanted to wait until the price went down. The reason I'm getting the sides is that I am gonna end up with the whole kit eventually so I might as well buy it now for 100 and get it painted.

Yeah I got my rear and sides from Sewell recently and had to pay extra for them to paint it obsidian. I would get the whole kit, even though the sides aren't that big of a difference, you can def tell once you install it.

personally i would go for the front first, then rear, then sides, you will notice the sides not being there sooner or later because even though it is not that much of a difference they do flare out a bit more and sooner or later it will bother you

I didn't know you had to cut the back bumper for insert the rear gfx kit. I guess I am going to purchase the gfx front then but it cost 450... I am in the same situation and I can't justify spending 400-500 on two pieces of lip. Hopefully, sewell will have these on sale since the 2006-2008 frons are like 100 bucks.

im not a big fan of the 09-10 gfx front lip.
especially at around 450+, id rather find a jdm front lip..
or if you dont care for a jdm lip, there's nextmod's rep vertex thats nice.
