The extrovert of the entire Lexus lineup, the IS-F isn't light on visual or actual horsepower. Japan's Wald Tuning hasn't let that fact get in their way of releasing the Sports Line Black Bison bodykit. Wald's setup adds some visual aggression through an increase in the number of strakes and vents, as well as a trunklid spoiler. Doubtless, this get-up will add weight, possibly offering contradictory real-world performance from a vehicle that certainly looks like it should be fast. The amped-up visuals also help distract from the controversial fender gills, and the Black Bison package for the IS-F manages tack-on without being overly tacky. Well, maybe just a little tacky.

I wouldn't call it "TUNED" it's a cheap looking body kit, it doesn't move me at all.

I agree Smoke, look too "ricey" !! Almost like it belongs on the Fast and Furious Tokyo movie...

It's a kid's body kit on an adult car.

I agree, I don't think that will go over to well with the crowd that would purchase this car.

Yeah, I don't like it either. At one time I thought a raised rear spoiler might look good but now I think I'm pretty happy with the trunk deck one.
