No, it will replace the stock bumpers. You will need the fittings on the factory bumpers and will use that for the RMM front and rear bumpers.

So installation is the exact way as the factory OEM bumpers.

The side skirts fit perfectly over the factory ones. The holes are already there from prior installation and should be a breeze.

Just FYI, the Lexus dealerships in the past used to sell Rod Millen Edition cars (at least in SoCal) as dealer options. This is because of the perfect fitment and you don't lose the foam bumper absorbers unlike some other bumper kits.

The materials used are the same as OEM parts and they are polyurethane (not fiberglass or plastic).

I have some but the car isn't lowered in the pics.

The fitment is perfect with no spacers or hub centric rings needed. Did not rub at all and you can slam the car all the way without worrying about rubbing.

I had someone PM me and he is picking up the wheels tonight though.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was wondering if YOU would need stock alpine silver bumpers. I am real interested in the kit. could you post some closeups of the sideskirts too?

Thanks!

Sold the car and put the stock bumpers back on.

I don't need them...

I can take picture of side skirts but probably not till end of the week since I need to pick up my truck in Cerritos (the kit is there right now)

The sides are perfect shape with no scratches etc.

You can do a search here on the forums as numerous GS owners use these sides.

There are a few people wanting to buy the kit including a few from out of state and out of country as well.

Let me know....right now to be fair I am doing it as first come first serve.

For the crazy low price I listed I know these parts won't last.

My loss is your gain.

Looks like RMM is pending sale.
Received deposit from local buyer and he will try to pick up this weekend.
If buyer flakes on me I have a list of those who inquired and I will update this post and PM as well.

Thanks....

Thanks....I figured sell at the right price if you want them to move.

When you sell used after market parts you know you won't get back what you paid for unfortunately.
