Default My Arms Design Full Bodykit & Eyelids!!

My Arms Design bodykit is being installed as I type. I actually dropped off my car yesterday and the kit is already on and has been sanded and primered...it will be painted tomorrow along with my eyelids and will be ready for me to pick Saturday afternoon!!! I saw the kit on their a few days ago as they were test fitting it and making adjustments...it looked GREAT, even wihtout it being painted!!! I love the kit!! I will post pics this weekend or early next week.

I also ordered my aluminum dash trim kit and a carbon fiber sports bra for the car. Next is RMM grill and RMM spoiler!!! Then sway and thrust bars and then some RIMS!!!!

Nice choice on the kit! Just make sure you put some rims that "fit" in terms of quality!

Okay, got the car back on Sunday instead of Saturday and since today was a nice day...I wiped it down and took a few pics!! I love the kit...it looks great!! And I love the eyelids!!! Kind of like the one on the front page of Super Street and kind of like Tom's eyelids...but I personally like mine much better!!!

Default Nice

Hey Looks good. I have the same lip I just put it on the other day. My question is, in person it's a little low at stock height. I'm planning on lowering my car this weekend with HR springs. I have a few questions:

1. what springs did you use to lower your car?
2. what size are the wheels and size of the tires?
3. was the front modified at all?
4. can you get me a side view picture of the front lip?

thanks and once again it looks great.

Hey pinktri...take a look at the second picture I posted...you can see how low it is. I have H&R stage 2 springs and my wheels and tires are actually the stock 17" size. The front end does scrape if Im not careful...but sometimes I just cant help it. I am planning on getting 19s and that should raise the car a little and maybe it will not scrape as much anymore. And the front was not modified. I will try to get a close up picture of the side view for you soon...just gonna be a little busy but I will do it by this weekend!!

Default thanks

thanks for the info. My car is getting lowered this saturday with 18 inch rims too. If you can get me some side pics that would be helpful. I wanted a side view of your car so I can see the wheel gap and the front bumper. do you think if I uninstall the lip will there be any scratches or anything like that on the bumper? Was thinking about taking it off. Like I said b4, looks good and try to post the pics for me. thanks

No kidding, that is one of thenicest IS 300's I've ever seen. Keep up that work. All you need now is that set of rims, and a FAT INTERCOOLER in the front.
