wise sports is another one (sorry I dont have pics but go to memoryfab.com to see pics)

None of those kits will fit without modification. The JDM bumpers that these lip kits are made for, are shorter. Might as well get a full body kit. :shrug:

The wise kits are a little too sporty for me. I figured the bumpers were different but I really wasn't looking to get a full bumper. Any idea how much modification is required for a US bumper.

If I were to get a full bumper which one has not been overly done

To my knowledge there are only 4 Q's (F50) in the states with kits
-1 with the junction Produce kit in Hawaii
-1 Mode Parfume kit in Hawaii (not on the car yet)
-2 Impul kits in Cali

Basicially, any kit you get will be exclusive lol.

As for the kit lips, the bumper lips will need to be extended a couple inches on each side and the center portion will need to be modified as well since the USDM bumpers and the JDM bumpers are a different design in the center. Good luck, cant wait to see what you choose at the end :biggthumpup:

widebody Q is right, any body kit that is actually on a F50 is a very rare thing here in the states. We cant count the countless bodykits I have imagined on my car lol.

i was gonna jump in and say that you should keep stock bumpers and slam that shit. but ya beat me to it.
honestly after fitting my kit and exhaust im looking at an extra 2.5-3.5 inches the whole way around the car except the side skirts which lower around 2 inches tops. and i dont know if youre aware of this, but even if u got a full body kit(except impul), your gonna have to do modifications to the factory bumper reinforcements to fit the kits over. so whether you get a lip kit or full body, your gonna have to modify something. my honest opinion though, is that none of those lip kits are worth the time. it doesnt say where u live, but im guessing US. and if thats true sourcing the front and rear jdm bumpers and the lip kit isnt worth it you could just buy a full body kit or put the money into suspension. just my .02 whatever you do, post pics :biggthumpup:

Yes, this lip kit works on for the USDM 05+ q45's.


In order for it to work, you need the
05-06 bumper $400
05-06 grill $425
05-06 Hood $620
05-06 Hood Chrome garnish $80
05-06 Headlights $2600 (the headlights are not needed since the shape is exactly the same but it will look stupid with the 02-04 lights)

For the rear, you will need
05-06 Bumper $450
05-06 tail's $600
05-06 trunk $600 (?)
05-06 inner trunk lights $150(?)

Those are all prices without shipping from the dealer. You wont find any thing in junk yards because only apprx. 1500 Q's sold from 05-06 together. I was real close to doing the 05 front end but didnt go through with it.


The whole rear end is different. The trunk is shorter and the bumper is longer and shaped differently. You need to do a full front end or rear end conversion, you can't just swap what ever you want because it wont fit without the other parts.

the reason i want a lip kit is so i dont have to take anything apart. i told myself i would not tear into the car. the only thing i want to take apart is the suspension.

looks like version select is making a lip kit for the f50. i know all of you guys frown upon copies, and so do i, but i dont see the point in spending good money then end up hacking up the lip. i rather spend a little and make it fit.
