Question Need a body kit/front and rear bumper for my 1998 Lexus es300

Just wanted to know if anyone has anywhere i can get a front bumper or rear bumper or body kit for my 1998 lexus es300. i know they're hard to come by these days, and the only ones i can seem to find on the internet are the duraflex evo ( https://www.andysautosport.com/produ...s__110582.html ) and a toyota windom style lip. Further, any exterior cosmetic part recommendations would be appreciated

I do not know of any 'body kits' for that generation ES personally....and if memory serves, the car already sits pretty low to the ground in stock form....should you install said body kit, just remember for steep driveways & large speed bumps & the like....it maybe more of an aggravation than anything else. I had a friend with a 2001 Honda Prelude that added a body kit (not lowered, also low to the ground) & after a couple of months...it was all chewed to crap due to the reasons I mentioned above. He told me that was the worst thing he could have done to the car (to each their own).

Having trouble finding a front & rear bumper....I would try auto wreckers considering the age of the car.

As for 'exterior cosmetic' recommendations....tinted windows; quality LED bulbs front / rear & interior (including fogs if equipped....you will be very surprised to find out just how many bulbs are on the vehicle with the owners manual lol). The doors are frameless so side window deflectors might be out of the question, unless they make them in Japan like they do for older Subaru's with frameless windows.

Let's not forget nice wheels / tire combo.

Good luck & let us know how you make out.

I've looked for awhile as well ,and was really only able to find the Duraflex Kit. If you look deep into some old forum posts, you will find pictures of other kits that had to be ordered / bought in Japan.
