Fitment, durability, materials, quality and this little thing called intellectual property.

No one is knocking on knock offs, own up to it if it is.

Hmm If you buy used then all the hard work was from the first owner ... haven't had any problems with my kit at all ... and loved the price

can't knock unless you put it on your self

There wouldn't have been an hard work if the kit was authentic in the first place. Just the work needed to make the kit sit flush and whatnot is enough evidence to warrant buying authentic parts in the beginning.

Anyway, back on topic. Let's see some Vertex Aristos!

O.K. Guys! Back on topic please. Besides I opened this thread to unite ALL Vertex Kits.

Anna, see why we consider you one of the guys.

I mean that in a good way.

Maybe ... But I had no issues with the kit when time of fitting ..

No way to know how much real effort went into the kit unless asked the original owner ..

regardless looks as if all this was posted to direct offend me and btw I saved over 1400.00 from the kit and the car looks the same as others ... like said previously , money saved , and no fitting issues .. hard to tell if you have a vertex or anything unless blown out on CL ...

thx to the flip side and Miss is300

If we did a poll and posted up 300.00 for a used kit great fitting issues , no name brand , or the amount shown from GB I'm sure if would be very obvious which majority would choose ...

Hey TAMR,

My car was at HIN in San Mateo earlier in the year. I saw your car at the SF Auto show when we were there to check on our Scion (Orange xB in the Scion booth). Looking good man. Which tail lights do you have on your car right now?

The LED ones from Carson. Made by SONAR. I just smoked them a li'l bit. Thanks for the complements.

I remember your ride because I was lusting over your kit. Now I'm also rockin' the Vertex Kit. I also remember the graffics on the side of your car.

The graphics were only put on the car for SEMA in 06 because HRE took the car. I'm not a big fan of the graphics so most of them will come off when we paint the car.

Even if you did not, can everyone please post pics of your car with the Vertex kit. I welcome other year and model Lexus cars. i.e:SC's, 1st gen GS', etc.
I will start it off. Here is mine. Enjoy!!

Sick..I love it

Here's mine, with Anteras. And before ya'll say it, I'm not gonna drop it. She's a DD, and my other lowered cars all scrub going in parking lots, over speed bumps, yadda, yadda, hahaha.
