Default Meanest looking body kit?

well i think im still going to get a GS even with the new body style comming out next year.

Just wondering what you all thought the meanest looking kit is for a black on black car.

Also pictures would be nice.

I have been looking at the one in the gallary but 219 pages is a lot!!!

Keep in mind Bluelex has a body kit. Kits help a lot with the appearance of the GS when you're rolling on 19"s or 20"s.
Don't forget the suspension. Car needs a nice drop to finish it off.

All in all, you're looking at spending a few bucks if you want your car to look like Bluelex's ride

Like Neo said, keep reading and you'll find all kinds of ways to go bankrupt

As far as mean body kits go? Hmmm well you can check out NYWIZKID's ride
https://www.clublexus.com/gallery/sh...cat=998&page=5

Personally not my style at all. Too "Fast & the Furious" for my taste but to each his own. Just looks like it's meant to be on a Civic or Accord.

The Rod Millen kit like the one you see on Bluelex's ride is pretty much the mildest kit you'll find. Very clean and elegant. Hard to tell just by glancing at the car if it has a kit on it. Very nice.

One step up from the Rod Millen kit would be the L-Sportline kit like the one on my car. Slight combination of clean elegance with a tiny bit of aggressiveness.

The most aggressive I'd personally go is the Veilside kit.

You can get a feel for all of these kits at:
http://www.rodmillenstore.com/gs_400/price_aero.htm


Lots of guys here also mix and match parts from different kits.
For example I think LXOGOOD has the best combination of L-Sportline, Veilside, UGO and Wings West.

The meanest bodykit is the IMC bodykit with the fender flares , hands down. Don't have a pic on me right now, trying searching the gallery. I believe it has 19x11 in front and 19x13 in rear. I am talking about meanest, not if its practical for a daily driver.

i feel alot of the body kits compromise the class of the vehicle though.

thanx, but like the others said and i agree also just wheels will look very good but a bodykit and drop it will finish off the look..my kit is sublte, which is what i wanted. there r more aggresive kits its that what u like but no matter what u choose , big $ will b spent in the process..good luck.
