While just the other day we were telling you about the bright green drop top IS C by Fox Marketing, today we have another tuner treat for you with another customized IS C for SEMA. The aftermarket parts manufacturer VIP Auto Salon and the Japanese car enthusiast website JTuned.com have come up with what they call the Matador Red IS C and is just as unique as the last one we showed you. Setting it apart form the rest of the crowd of Lexus IS->ke500 convertibles at the show will be a carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber trunk spoiler, high performance exhaust and a set of custom wheels and tires to round out the tuner transformation. So what would it cost to park one of these Matador Red IS C's in your driveway, roughly $15,000 over the sticker price, and you can't be in any hurry because it will take the craftsmen a month and a half of hard labor to get the job done.
Press release after the jump.
