Default ISF Conversion on my 2009 IS...here comes the hate!

Why wont the ebay ISF front bumper conversion work on a 2009 to 2012, does anyone know why 2006 to 2008 is the only conversion available.

It probably has something to do with the bezel surrounding the grill area. If you can get the 06-08 bezel, it should fit

You'd just need to get some of the 06-08 parts, like the grill, grill surround, etc.

Thanks guys...i just wish I can get some feedback for someone whom successfully completed this conversion. Problem is, I just don't like lip kits. or duraflex or fiberglass.

The front bumper conversion I got came with the upper and lower grill. You should only need to get the outer grill bezel.

Thanks ED...I called them and they didn't seem to know much, but i compared my grill and bumper to an 2007 IS, and the grill of my 2009 has a curvature on some sort at the bottom[IMG]2009 grill.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]2008 grill.jpg[/IMG]

No worries, if we had something I'd offer it. Just trying to help out. Goodluck with the conversion!
