I agree. Love the look of the front, not feeling the back at all

It's way too busy. Black hides all the lines so it probably would make it look better, but what would be the point of putting a kit on a black car if you can't really distinguish it or the sole intention is to hide what it actually looks like? Sorry Wald, but with this kit...back to the drawing board.

Horrible. Looks like crap. It looks like those generic aftermarket bumpers that you see on ricers that go unpainted. ha ha

I like the front - the rear is fugly. Looks like a dashboard from one of the computers on Star Trek.

I'm not sure about the whole kit, the front is very busy and has too much going on, the back is interesting with what seems to be a working diffuser, but again the massive spoiler and integrated light make it look odd in my eyes. I will be all over a very subdued version of this kit.

I think the bumper part looks better than the first Wald design. I don't like the spoiler and the reflectors should go.

They should use a concept of "Less is more". The kit doesn't derve to be on the IS-F at all.
