Default Pics of my new F mods!!

ADDED A FEW MORE PICS ON PAGE 2


Sorry for the Blackberry quality pictures, didn't have my camera at the time some of these were taken.

With rear diffuser installed:


I blacked out the front window trim and left the back just for comparison to see if I wanted to black out the whole thing, I decided to I just haven't done it yet:


This is an old pic before any mods:


Joe-Z Black intake, thanks malujerry:


Custom front grill painted Obsidian Black:


Another grill pic with the F emblem:


A pic of the diffuser so you can see how it's installed:


Black pearl F that's going to replace the silver grill emblem once my full black pearl emblem set arrives:


The grill with no emblems for the blacked out look:



Coming soon: roof spoiler with "something" you may not have seen before if my little plan works out. Full blacked out door trim, BP emblems all around, smoked LED tails...then we will see what's next.

I want to black out the inside of my headlights but I don't know how or who can do that. Any suggestions?

The diffuser I got from s4play, who is a member of this forum. There's one on ebay right now and I think you can get it from one of the sponsors too. I got the grill from another forum member who had it for sale.

The IS-F is a beautiful car! I can't wait to get my ultrasonic blue one next year.

No 3rd brake light, but that's a much cooler mod/idea than mine

Yeah I used some black tape stuff I bought off a mini cooper site that someone had linked to somewhere on this forum. I think it was 3M. I like the look but I'm having mine painted.
