Default Lexus OEM Ground Effects Pics (Before and After)

Just picked up my new Lexus IS 250 last week and had to do a few changes. Before even getting the car (since they had to find me a black on black with navigation) I ordered the illuminated scuff plates and the OEM GFX kit. I don't think I have ever before ordered parts for a car I didn't have! Anyway, thanks to everyone on here it was pretty easy to find all the info I needed on purchasing, prices, options, and mods.....so thanks.

I don't know how to add more than one picture on a post so I am just going to post the before and after pics for anyone that might be considering adding it.

Initially I was debating on whether or not to just do the front air dam or maybe just the front and back, or the whole thing, etc. It was my fiance who told me to just get the whole thing since she felt the car would look more complete doing it all since the ground effects kinda flow together.

It does not make a drastic difference, but I really like the way it looks now more than before......

I actually like it because it isn't too drastic in design. However, I can imagine how people can crave for something more elaborate.

Hopefully, Lexus will introduce a "refreshed" IS for '09 with a new body kit that is not just a bolt-on body kit. It would be nice to see the IS with a completely different front and rear bumper...

Looks great... I love my oem gfx too... It gives the car a larger stance.
