    looks good to me.

    what don't you like about it? any of the premium cars (including ix's) came with the stock, the cheap stripper models came with the standard lip instead. BMW went cheaper on later ix's and stripped all the nicer parts out of them (sport seats, spoilers, etc). to bring the costs down.

              I find it drops too low in the front so that when you see the car in profile, it looks kind of unbalanced with the rockers having so much more ground clearance than the front of the car.
              Same love-hate relationship here
              Then again it does look a lot better on the ix, IMHO, because of the side skirts

                        Yup, i hate the IS lip. even with the IS side skirts it is still to low. I would like to see one half the height.

                          I like the front lip on those! My favorite though is the early model IS/ES valance.
