the wheels are HOT!. You guys are just too infatuated with the generic 2D CAD designs of HRE and Iforged.

Boy am I glad I stalled on the body kits from Lexus and INGS... this might be the one (although from the side profile pics, the side sill kit is too subtle, if existent).

wish they had it in a different color, hard to see the details of a body kit on a black car

Best body kit yet. The wheels would be perfect if they weren't chrome and were 19's. 20's are just too ridiculous and completely useless for daily driving. I'd bend those things pulling out of my driveway...

l-tuned describes the lip spoiler as FRP.
I did a search and that stands for fiberglass reinforced plastic.

Is this material better than the old fiberglass bodykits they used in the 90's?
My past experience with fiberglass bodykit was horrible (early 90's)

I'm just curious if FRP is much improved.

yes, it's a bit better, it has more flex and can withstand some hit

but don't think of it as anything like stock bumper or urethene. it's still fiber glass after all. you hit something hard, you crack it
