Thats the problem out here hardly anyone sells the bits and when you do find them you gotta pay through the nose.
very nice choices

umm, i wonder if you can get it from our vendors here in the US and then have them ship the clear bra kits over?

Like few weeks ago we where at a local car dealers whos got 2 Ferrari Enzo's stacks of Porkys, AMG's , couple of Astons .. Vanquish etc.. and passer by's where staring at my Lexus.

Wherever I drive it everyone stares at it and no one knows what it is
very true, rare isn't a bad thing

Looks good. I will say this about all Wald kits, very subtle but awesome accents to SC. Beautiful especially on black. Can't believe it cost that much for an SC! I thought it was alot in Canada? lol

Definetly needs a lowering in my opinion and the debadge in the rear will make sure nobody knows what your car is but i think its kinda bare *** imo....sorta, i dunno like somehtings missing? isnt' their an indentation from the big L badge in the rear on the trunk? how'd you remove that? Just my opinion, don't take it seriously!

what are those wheels btw? and howz the weapon R intake, i don't think anyone has that....

I got the intake from the states, but I think the bra is only as good as the fitter. So thats why I want to get the bra in the UK from someone who can also fit it. I cant even get a postage stamp on straight... so im not gonna try that.

Thing is all the cars over here are a similiar price hike ( Jags, Mercs, Astons etc).. so no matter what car I get you guys would probs think the price was crazy. The only car that might be cheaper is the TVR Tuscan S (the one from that John Travolta film Swordfish) as its the only truly British car.

" isnt' their an indentation from the big L badge in the rear on the trunk?"
"sorta, i dunno like somehtings missing?"

I had the recess filled and repainted, I think standing next to the car it looks better. The rear is quite busy. ie the trunk lid scoops up and the bumpers and sides bulge outwards. So you eye is taken away from where the badges normally live. If your not used to looking at the rear then your eye is taken away from where the badges would be. Just IMO
