Would an l-sportline front and rear bumper look alright with no sideskirts? How much lower than stock bumpes would it sit?

 

Why would you want to do that ?? If you are not going to put on aftermarket sides then you should just go with the front bumper.

 

The line wouldn't continue from the side. I'd rather do just front.

 

is the front, skirt and rear kit self installable with standard tools? (nuts and bolts? is glue needed?) Is the OEM front, skirt (maybe dont even have skirts OEM) and rear difficult to remove? (rivets, screws, nuts and bolts, glue, which?)

No kit fits perfect...have a body shop do the install....one that has done body kits before

 

No, the line from the bumpers won't match the sides. I tried to do the front and the sides alone, but the rear looked funny. If you can't do them all, don't do it. Now you can mix and match kits, as long as they line up.

 

Would my car scrape alot if I put the l-sportline kit on and then did the H&R springs, or how much lower than stock would I be???

 

I have 20's, and the win kit and only 1" lowered with the eibachs....if I went any lower I couldn't drive anywhere...

 

Well to answer all of your questions.
IMO the kit would look funny with out the side skirts.
The front skirt is about a half an inch lower than the stock bumper.
The l-sportline kit is supposed to be a direct bolt on kit, no molding is required.
The instruction says you can do it your self, but I wouldn't recommend it for 2 reasons.
1st the front bumper has about 40 plus screws to take off and put back on.
2nd the rear bumper has about 30 plus screws to take off and put back on also.
On my kit the front and rear line up pretty close to the stock lines but the side skirts needed a little modification.
BTW I have 20's and its lowered about an 1 1/4.
good luck in your decision.

 

Genius - you're car will be lower but if you angle up and down driveways, you shouldn't rub...the Lsportline bumper has a slight upward angle in the front to help avoid scrapes (unlike the Win kit which is straight and the Win kit also sits lower than the Lsportline in general)

With the two together (H&R and Lsportline), I think you'll be 2" lower than stock...maybe 2.25"...but it's not just about the lowering...it's also about the design of the front bumper...

Are you selling your GS300? (I was just reading your .sig)

 

Yeah I am selling my 300, but I am looking to get a GS400 very, very soon!

 

Does anyone have any pics of cars with L-sportline kit? I don't think I saw any in the Gallery.

 

I personally think its the coolest looking kit out there.. very sleek

 

btw, does anyone know who has the best prices on this kit?

 

I was in the Group Buy effort to get the L-Sportline roof spoiler. It didn't fit well. Today, I still have the spoiler in the garage. Don't recommend their product at all......
