I think a rear diffuser would work well with that body kit

Thank you but that's not the same kit. The one that clinched sells seems to be for the 2012 front end.Maybe they offer two kits not sure.

This is amazing, thanks for the share. Can anyone comment about the reputability of Clinched? Can't seem to find anything online as they are based in Russia.

Never heard of them either, As you notice people here already pre-orderd the kit to be set in production. So we'll see how things go from there on overall reviews. Can't always find reputability that easy , the 2iS is getting a good loads of aftermarket revenue this upcoming years. So its a good thing but pricey

Hey guys, Waferz here. The yellow car pictured is my car and that is Lexon overfenders. I have more renders of the clinched kit I will post up. Clinched has been around for a few years and I have personally used many of their products. They are machined out of abs plastic rather than fiberglass. I've had nothing but good interactions with these guys over the years. In fact, the only issue I had with the company was that there was no IS specific kit. After bugging the owner of clinched enough he's decided to make one... and boy does it look good. The preorder is 2000 and you will have to pay shipping when the product is weighed and shipping rates are calculated. I suggest buying rubber lining and riv nuts from their site as well. 3,600 for the kit is not a bad price by any means. My Lexon flares were 3000 and are an incomplete kit. This clinched kit is the full deal. As far as the rear bumper goes, I personally hate rear bumper lips, but these guys are very open to ideas, so if you have any, they will gladly listen.

if anyone has any questions about the company or kit feel free to contact me on IG @_waferz_ or text me 3375912224

wouldnt there be complications with the isf hood if you ran is350 fender? xD

That's a good price for sure. But now sure if I really like the kit... I mean I guess I like it, but I just don't Love it yet. And I need to love something in order to consider dropping that much cash on it. I'll wait and see how it looks in person or othe members rides before I decide. But Good to know theres one more option for us out there now!
