Where did you buy this and how much? Does it make the rear look a little lower? I'm looking at either a rear lip that has a diffuser but this also looks nice.

I like the color combo on the 2 white IS. To me it looks better when the section above the exhaust tips are color matched with only the middle part painted black. It gives the bumper a better flow and you can see the lines of the diffuser a lot better.

The pic of the white IS's two toned looks nasty. I'd go with that look for sure.
I'd love to have a diffuser on my car. I scrape my exhaust though so I'm pretty sure a diffuser will just make things worse for me

He bought it from me, but that's the only 2 I had imported.

Because there is not a lot of interest, and the fitment is not 100%. Is about 95% I would say.

Maybe I can have the other manufacture to make this lip in Carbon fiber and better fitment if there is enough interest.
(Will need 25-30 people)
OR

change the design a little bit, I know some people dislike the end of the lip.






To OP.

I say blue and black. All black doesn't look good, trust me.

I've seen it.

If you guys can sort of design a new lip with that stype, but have it go around the whole bumper, im sure a few of us would jump on it!
to OP, two tone it. It'll look much better
