kinda off topic but i must say that I'm impressed with the amount of stuff vip has for the isf's on the site
I just wish for better organized categories so I can look at what i want rather then hunting
kinda like sewell or carson's sites

So was the prototype developed in US or Japan?

i would've agreed like a two months ago.. but it actually grew on me.... i kept going back and forth from ventross to Wald/Tom's... then i decided well.. i want 'modified... but subtle'... i think we can all agree that wald/tom's isn't subtle... so then it was ventross or Lexon... it took me a little while to decide... so then i thought.. y not both... ventross front.. and lexon rear.. lol.. but yea... happy w/ the decision... saved me about $600 i think.... but no CF rear..... i guess super glossy black will do for now ........................ btw CoolBeans... love ur F...

Not a bad job with a rattle can!! As for the look, it's definitely different, I on the other hand like more of the shark fin look for the diffuser. Looks good though!!!

Looks great but I hope that paint will hold up. Glad to not see that cheap diffuser everyone has been buying.

Agreed... I love the subtle look of it. Wish it was maybe a bit more finy.. Kind of like MRxSLAYx rear lip/diffuser, s4play diffuser

Not sure, but aren't all Lexon products developed in Japan? Regardless of whether we like the looks or not, it's definitely a high quality piece. The price is not high considering the other diffusers out there.
