i think they got the right concept/idea going but overdid it a bit on those vents. i think it'd look good or at least attract a lot of attention at first but down a couple years, it'd be "eh" at best.

It's closer to becoming a "ricer" kit. Seriously too much tack on BS like you would see on 10yr old honda's.

Most of the IS-F owners on this forum have great taste, and who would ruin the refined look of the IS-F. In this case less is more. As is the nonfunctional side vents added some flare, but no purpose, so that the car could stand out.

I wish the vents were functional

What side vents are you talking about? The one that is currently on the IS-F stock? Cuz those are functional...they let the hot air out of the engine bay out through the side vents on the IS-F.

The kit should just go on a Civic, not the ISF.

There's no way that you can compare the Black Series to this.

The Wald Kit has a more aggresive front and rear with too much going on. Sorry, i don't see it.

i dont see a roof spoiler...are you talking about the trunk spoiler? lol i think the trunk spoiler is bad...but in those pics it is definitely the least offensive mod

Just doesn't work!! There is no flow to the kit .. no consistent lines and too many conflicting characteristics.. Some have called the stock ISF flashy when compared to its Euro counterparts and this may be true to a certain degree, but this kit overshoots the line between good taste and ugly by a mile..
