Here are pics of the IMPUL kit from burtman indusries installed.The parts are first class and my painter loved the quality.the pieces fit exactly to the origianal mounting points. took a total of five hours to remove then install.the parts fit perfectly over the "usa" bumpers.no cutting, no forcing.Next step is to custom build a top grill with a wire mesh, do a bottom grill, get FX 20 wheels and tires, and get some type of film or coating over the front bumper.any thoughts on chrome FX wheels or the non-chrome?is anyone aware of a "curb radar warning system" ? that I could mount up front to warn when I am to close to a curb?

I'd have to see a photoshop of the FX wheels in chrome on the car, but my first inclination is to say stick with the non-chrome FX 20s on a light colored car like yours.

That Impul kit is how the F50 should have come from the factory.

No, the bumpers fit exactly over the additional piece of styrafom that is on the usa cars.

wow that is pricey but very nice.

Impul really did a good job with the g50.

I wish you decided on some wheels that were more special. The oem 20" does not do your car justice IMO. it would be VIPCAR cover page material with the right wheels.

did you lower the car ? what did u do to lower it ?

dont you mean the f50, the 02 body style is f50

thanks. it has the 18's on it right now. havent bought the 20s yet. my work just doesnt allow me to have any blink. I have my own company. I work with the frail elderly.

did you lower the car ? what did u do to lower it ? well here is the dark secret. I lowered it w/ swift springs front and back BUT put the factory spring back in the rear. I was bottoming out to often.so the look is perfect and I have no complaint no about the ride
