Hello! This is my first post, I just bought a Black 2010 LS 460 short body. I already ordered 20" Vossen VVS-CV1's in the black matte finish and am considering which body kit to add.
![](http://www.motorworldhype.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/vossen_vvs-cv1.jpg)
I am looking for a conservative styled body kit, basically what I would consider to be the way a stock car SHOULD look, not the 60 yr old man style of the factory moldings.
I have seen a few kits I like such as Tom's more conservative kit

Also this one I have seen on ebay, has anyone had any experience with either of these kits?

wow, thanks man! I just went through the whole list you gave me and I had only seen a few of the more common and expensive kits.
I think I am going to choose between the Tom's and this one here:

I think you are right about the side skirts. On the conservative kits I cant tell anything is different on the side skirts. Now I am considering the JP Sports kit also, it is really nice looking. I will prob just go with a front and rear bumper and choose the trunk spoiler I like best. I am looking for a think one like in the pic above but I want it on an upright angle, not almost horizontal to the trunk like the one ricercato one above.

OK, the final verdict is between Tom's and JP Sports body kit found here:
http://www.jp-boutique.jp/product/aero/LS460/LS460.htm
Does anyone know where to get the best price on the JP Sports kit? Or do I just order direct from the manufacturer in Japan?

Hello~ Welcome to the club.
I would invest a bit more on the wheels since you won't lose much on a set of good wheels when reselling it. No comment on Vossens from me..
The body-kit is really up to your personal preference. I personally like to mismatch parts from different manufacturers because I always see the like and dislike bodykit parts.
Since you bring up the H-Style kit here... it has my favorit spoiler (truck hood). To me it is an old-school beauty piece, but I know many doesnt like the oversize & bulky look.
Good luck with your shopping,
