That one is actually tastefully done, and doesn't look like $3 bolt-on's the way most body kits do. This actually gets an "I like it" vote from me, which is very rare.

I agree with you on this, very nice. I was actually planning on doing the OEM kit, but since I have seen this, I might go with this kit.

i like it a lot!!! very subtle, and nicely put together and flow with the car sooo well! i always like it when you show people and they go "umm it looks different" but can't really figure out exactly what's different

with they had a matching roof spoiler and rear lip spoiler as well

I was on TOM's website, and I used some Yen to Dollar converter and it came out to $1,418.13. Please correct me if I'm wrong though. In Yen, the price was listed as 165,000 for the kit in ABS and painted.

very subtle, perhaps too subtle for 1500$.

i'm not saying i don't like it... it's alright but i think i just got used to the oem one... i'm not really a fan of aftermarket kits, especially for the 2IS

IMO this kit looks better than the OEM kit.(and way better than the ING kit) I like it, but the TRC looks the best.
