I have seen the GS in person and that looks real nice. I haven't seen the IS yet, I think they were showing it at HIN.

We're still waiting on the mold to be finished. They were tweeking the final production version....did something about the foglight openings and lowered it another inch.

I don't want to mis-represent, but Roger estimated the kit would be ready mid June. I'm crossing my fingers because the kit is holding up me finishing the project.

I like the idea of losing the damn reflectors on the rear bumper but I'm not giving up my park assist

I've seen this kit in person and I do like it. It is a subtle kit that definitely adds to the clean lines and curves of the IS rather than breaking it up or bulging it out. At first glance it almost looks stock but if you see it next to a stock one you can definitely appreciate the subtle lines in the kit that compliment the IS. If you look closely at the front kit you see the line from the hood down the side of the grill extended to the bumper and on the lower grill the lines extend upward, nice touch.

I like the sound of the M45 !! Almost G sounding... Man Infiniti makes good exhaust notes. OEM and even better for aftermarket!

Someone needs to design an exhaust that gives a G35 like sound.

That kit is very nice and subtle definately something that I would consider. Does any body know how much it costs ??. I also think it looks better than the kit that Lexus sells.
