I have just purchased a body kit for my SC400. I took it to an experienced body shop, who only deals in high end vehicles and quality work.

They said "they have installed alot of body kits and this is the worst fitting kit they have ever seen"!!!!

I wasn't expecting a great fit knowing the manufacturer wasn't the best , but this kit was off by INCHES!!!. The best fitting piece was the front bumper and that took a great deal of work to fit on(And it still fits horribly). The side skirts were not even the right length, and the area where the bolts are to be mounted was curved instead of straight. The fibreglass was the thinest and least flexible I have seen.

(I should of went with urethane, but there is still no excuse for the sale of a poor fitting product)

Just curious if anyone else has encountered problems as I have.

What kit is it? VIS?

DLEX

UMMMMM YA ! It is VIS
BIG MISTAKE, I know now.

LOL.
I knew when you said that the side skirt was wayyy off.
Join sxylxy in his court case against VIS if you can't get your money back.

You shouldve done your research before purchasing...If you had done search here at CLUBLEXUS regarding "VIS" then you would've known...It is possiblity the worst body kit out there and very POOR customer service....

No urethane kits out for SC...

sounds like this kits price evens out with other kits becuase of the money involved to get it right... sorry to hear about it! if I ever go for a kit, I think Im going to try and go with a rarer JDM kit... maybe try and get the target team pheonix kit... but I bet the time it takes to get here would drive me crazy!!!

Sorry to hear about you choice of VIS. I was probably the 1st guy to go head to head with them and win. I have two things to say to you, I said it to sxylexy cause I talked to him on the phone when he had his problem and i'll tell you the same thing. Write letters to the better buisness bureau and follow up to every single letter the ask you to respond to, you have to hit them where it hurts the most, THEIR REPUTATION (which is already crap). NUMBER 2 and I wish people would check threads before buying. NEVER BUY ANYTHING THAT EXPENSIVE IN CASH/CHECK/OR MONEY ORDER, ONLY CREDIT CARD. If you don't have one ask to use somebody else's and pay them. All you gotta do is make a dispute with your credit card company and they will go after them like crazed doggs. And VIS will listen to them cause if VISA and MASTERCARD (the only two credit cards VIS takes) gets upset with them for constant complaints, then they will revoke their rights to use their card. WHICH RESULTS IN HUGE LOSS IN PROFITS FOR PHONE ORDERS.

Sorry again to hear that you have to deal with these guys, they are jerks once they get your money. Don't give up be prepared to go into a six month fight and if you don't give up you'll get your money back trust me.

Maybe this is why VIS took the SC kit off their website?

Here is a new quote I found....

"There is hardly anything in the world that some man cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and those who buy by price alone are this man's lawful prey." - John Ruskin


Not directed towards anyone specifica but when will people learn? If you don't have the money to mod your ride correctly, then you don't have money to MOD PERIOD. Most mods aren't NOT that expensive. I know that "cost" is a relative thing but honestly, if you can afford to buy a Lexus, you should be able to afford to buy mods of the same caliber. If you can not, you are OBVIOUSLY overextending your fundage. Just drive it stock until you CAN afford the right mods.

Also, before you buy something that's relatively expensive (no matter what it is) DO SOME DAMN RESEARCH!
