If you switched out the wheels put smaller exhausts and de-****ted the interior it might look ok.

Hmm good find. Actually I kinda like the custom body kit, since there doesn't appear to be too many out there for the ES, and ya gotta admit, this is definately a different look. Would definately change out the exhaust with maybe different tips and the wheels would have to get diferent/bigger. The setcovers/steering wheel cover, bye bye!!! Overall, I like it,, I'd rock it, but not for the money he is asking.

Hopefully the "restrengthened" phrase refers to the custom fitment of the kit and not the car itself having been in an accident.

Not my cup of tea. But it looks ok. Definitely not worth the money he's looking for though. Looks like a Kit off a camry. Cant remember which one though.

It's a shame what people would do to an es. The sad part is that i would actually like the exterior of the first car if it were eight years ago. Man i was such a ricer .

I am wondering how the lambo doors close on the es..with the frameless windows? I'd have to say it looks interesting...like craziness..
