Default ** IS Body Kit **

Gathering a census on this body kit, I want some opinions before I offer it.

It comes painted,primered, or if your in So Cal installed.

Thats different...but NICE!! The only thing that about it is the bottom grill, the one with the Lexus badge, it just looks like the actual stock grill was moved down below. That's what it looks like, can't really see that part very well. Other than that, its NICE!!!

Yeah, that's what I was debating. At least take off the "L" on the grille??

If it was reversed It would have a different effect.

yea, it would have a different effect if it were reversed. I like it the way it is, but the "L" does need to come off. Also, the bottom grill needs to be silver like the top to match, that would make it look even better!

Makes the IS look a little like a Pontiac if you ask me...

Who makes that kit?

We can definetly change the front, it's made by a local company right here in So Cal.

Mesh the bottom instead, use a JDM Altezza grille

What does the rear look like? I like the kit, just drop the JDM grill and take the L off, I think it would look better with the stock 2002 grill, it would match the bottom grill better.
