Default GFX Front Lip and JDM Bumper Lip?

What do you guys think about that?

I already ordered the GFX Front Lip, I was wondering if it would look good with the JDM Bumper Lip...

I don't like how the GFX rear looks, basically stock.

Anyone have the JDM Rear Kit??

True that Lexus doesn't make any other kit beside gfx. So what this kit you talk of? Don't tell me off eBay haha..

I think OP is referring to an eBay kit.

A quick google search yielded this:
Lexus IS250/350 IS JDM BUMPER LIP KIT V STYLE

It looks like a Wald-style (replica) kit to me. Unless you can show us otherwise MoeIS350 .

Something like this for the rear?



Basically if anyone can help me with finding a good TRUSTED site to order some body kits from, would be really great! =]

Don't fake the funk.

You can get the real thing from:
http://my.is/forums/f195/jp-vizage-l...-430-a-393063/

I've ordered some rotors and pads from them and they were fast and reliable.

You need some sides with the JP rear lip.

I'd say Tom's rear will be more suitable, but it costs more.

I think that JP rear lip is too agressive for the gfx front. What are you doing for the sides?

Im not big on mixed matching lips but the GFX front definately wont go well with the JP rear...you should go with full JP if you dont like GFX rear.

GFX front fits best with GFX rear.
