and worse yet,expensive parts come low quality for no reason,the guy says in the thread the body shop tech said it was very good quality.It looks really good on his gs in the pics,very good fitment as well. I guess if it makes you feel good to spend more $ have at it,I prefer saving myself

Hey, watch out. That's my car with the cheap duraflex kit by Extreme Dimensions.
I've done the expensive poly eurethane kits in the past. They are best for long lasting flexibility but usually require extra effort by techs to install....in my experience. This kit came out the box and fit right on. The techs who installed it have done all my work and they were very happy with this one because it was so easy. It's also very light weight and is durable. I have knicked it several times and it's holding up well. So well that I will buy from Extreme Dimensions agains without hesitation.
I read the forums and lots of people have had issues with the expensive kits. Comments like yours are so misleading.

there are a million guys like that in the supra world that think if its not from japan its crap,guys fiberglass and poly are not rocket science.A ton of guys payed top $ for jap supra aero parts and got ripped as well,some smaller American companies either splashed there designs and made them 3x better for 3x less $ or made their own designs for 3x cheaper. the choices for this gs are very limited and mostly expensive.
You can get full bumpers for the supra that are way nicer and higher quality than the lips offered for the gs,for less $ than the lips cost,the biggest diff is they are produced and sold here in the states!

The aftermarket world for the Supra and GS are not the same. Supra parts should be 10x less then what GS parts cost. How many people purchase a GS and do the things that we all enjoy?
Heck look at most of my threads were I wanted to add performance and many thought I was crazy I know what I had to pay for most of the parts on my car and I can buy them for a fraction of the cost if I had a different car. But we dont have that different car so either you pay to play or take your chances.
Ice350 - I could of sworn that you had to take your car back to have them fix the front lip? Seems to me that it wasnt so easy to install or they would have figured it out the first time. Installing a gfx on this car doesnt get any easier. I installed all my parts and had no issues.
Yes you can get an expensive kit and fitment may not be perfect. Rominl mentioned this with his JobDesign. IMO it looks the best but your paying for the name. To my knowledge this is the only aftermarket that I have read of that had fitment issues.
At the end of the day with the GS you get what you pay for. The time and material with less demand is going to cost us more. Welcome to the world of modifying a Lexus IMO. My IS350 was the same way.

Thats a good reason to not mod much,the car is a luxury car after all,Im doing a front lip and wheels,and gutting the cats for better response in the 460 and done. You are right demand has much to do with it,but there are far fewer supras around than Gs cars,its not like im talking about civic parts.
I really like your lip,If it were sent to modelista or a similiar company here,they could make a splash of it and make a thicker higher quality part for 3x less $
