Finally decided what kit!..
After hours and hours of searching the net, and looking at members rides of what type of aero kit I should purchase.....I finally decided. I decided to go with the RMM kit. I wasnt sure until I was on the freeway today, and off the side on a strip mall I saw a GS with the RMM kit, so I decided to pull off the next exit, and check it out. Just to let you know the RMM kit looks 100% better in person! So anyways, I was late to work, but well worth it. Does anyone know the best prices and where on the RMM kit? just my lil story.

I always have people tell me that the RMM is too plain, too common, yadda yadda, but I think that is the purpose of a aero package for a Lexus, it should add some aggression yet still be tasteful. And as for commonality (sp) There are about 5 GSs on the board with it, so its not that common.
I also like the way Kev cut his center bar out of the bumper and used a different grille, kinda created a different style of kit!

Also, I am told that the kit includes the factory front and rear bumper chrome trim? I not to fond of the RMM grill though, I beleive that maybe the L-sportline 430 grill would look better. The 430 grill would match the line in the front bumper with the line going across the front grill without the L logo. just my opinion. Whats the cheapest price anyone has seen this kit? How is the fitment? Should I be on the look out of Knock-offs of this kit?

u probably mean the l-tuned grill with the line in the middle with no "L" , its matter of taste i guess. but yes rmm does send oem bumper trim with thier kits 4 the front and rear bumpers. u get them in little toyota boxes..only bad part about the kit id that if u blow a fog lamp bulb u will have some fun trying 2 take it replace it, the rmm front bumper has the fog lamps screwed from behind not the front like teh stock bumper so u need 2 get 2 the screws from behind 2 remove it...try the people i mentioned above and i don't think cus i've never seen a RMM knock off kit...explosion yes but not rmm....

The explosion style kit has all the same lines/curves as the RMM, but it does not come with a spoiler. If you take it to a shop you could just have them fill the round holes, and cut out the vertical bar in the airdam, then fit your foglights to the hole. Of just leave the Explosion style front and get some round fogs.
no RMM copy exists though, that I know of.

Blue, I totally agree with you on the fog light installation on RMM bumper. I had taken down my bumper twice just to replace the fog Do you have any better way to do it?
