No offence TOM'S is offical modification company of TOYOTA... and it does fit like the OEM kit...

i know it is, and i know it fits nice, i just got used to seeing the oem kit on mine and every other kit i see is 'different'. they're not ugly or anything, just not my taste. and i guess in my mind, anything that isn't directly linked to lexus is considered aftermarket =)

on a side note, what about TRD? aren't they the official modders of Toyota? or are they both?

and does have anyone have any TRC pics? i really want to see them, i couldn't even find anything with a google search.

This is the first body kit I would SERIOUSLY consider buying. Very "Lexus-like" and tastefully done.

I like both kits, I love the TRC front and sides, just wish they had a rear that didn't have the quad exhauts.

The Tom's is nice also, fairly understated - the rear is really nice.

I like the sides and the rear a lot, I still love the Fabulous front lip tho. Think that would be the best combo.
