Default Updated Test Fit of Vertex Kit Pics Inside

Hey guys, after waiting anxiously from last week after I bought this Vertex kit from Flippu (Mike), great guy by the way, it has finally came. It actually wasn't scheduled for delivery until Friday, but they called me and said that it would be delivered today and I had no problem with that.

Updated Pics of the Kit on the Car Unpainted.










I will be dropping off the car to the bodyshop on Monday so they can prep and paint the kit. I should have the car back by the end of the week, so I'll keep you guys posted.

Or maybe 'LAXUS' = Lexus with a Texan accent?

Looking forward to see how it'll look after installation.

Hey man....VERY VERY nice! Looks like you finally got it. I guess I'll have to wait another year till I have the funds to do the kit.
