no its not direct bolt on if it is then i would of had it done already. You have to drill holes and cut part of the bumper and i dont want to do it wrong and have it all jacked up and have to get a new bumper and shiet....I am also picky about if its on straight or not and stuff like that i might just pay lexus to do it for me hummm wonder how much they charge???

I would talk to SCSHINOBI before you do that

If you have directions and its a real JDM kit, then it should be easy and I could help in that field.
Do you have a dremel or a similar tool. Get something that will cut the bumper. Just do it slow and not melt the plastic and you should be fine.
Probably the part your cutting off the bumper isnt gonna be seen, since the kit might cover that area
If its more technical than that, go to a body shop.

I did my own as well, I had to cut up the bumper, where the exhaust pipe came out. I also had to drill some holes in the front/rear bumpers for the lip kit and 3m tape ftw.

I can help, if needed
