OK great ... so here is
THE GOOD: This kit looks pretty nice. It gives the car a definite more sporty look than stock. The stock in my opinion has a sporty look, especially with the spoiler, 6 spoke rims, and the paint coming in the flint mica, white or black colours. I like what they have done with the 2013 ES 350, only in those paint colours mentioned, can look pretty sporty as well.
THE BAD: This is not a sports car, not by any means. It is a cruiser, meant for a comfortable ride by an older demographic, with similar underpinnings to the Camry. I always laugh at guys who tune the s***t out of their little hondas, audis, bmws etc. Such a waste of money. That money would be better applied to the initial cost of the car to get a nicer ride.
Getting into this kit would be quite expensive I am guessing... I love love love the side skirts and rear bumper though!

The back end looks much better than the front. I like everything about the front except where the stock bumper ends and the aftermarket begins. It just sticks out to me and I can't look away.
Still, Props to you my friend!

First let me start by saying hello for the first time. I have been on this forum for several years without any involvement. I was always taken a back because it seems like all of the real mods were the 2000 or older ES. So I finally decided to take the es for what is it, a great car. since i couldnt do anything for my previous 2003 ES300, I thought it would be different on my New ES350. Sadly it seems the same remains with this new model. I noticed an actual body kit on Alibaba and EBAY in my area in upstate new york. I was wondering if anyone has any opinions on this kit. I will try to be much more active. Thanks in advance.

Hey Guys, Sorry for no updates. Iife happens and the Kit had to be placed on hold. I'm waiting for a reply from the original seller to find out if he really has the kit in stock so I can mover forward soon. working with the wife to make this happen, she's not keen to changing after only recently having the car. The other good news is I finalized the issue with the bumper hit, so hopefully soon. I cant wait. I noticed that with our vehicle its about a lot of waiting on certain, things, looking to be the first for this kit. I will continue to update.

update
What's up all. Just wanted to post another update. I contacted the seller, well at least a different seller. Not sure how many are from NY here, but i have great news!! the kit is in stock in Brooklyn NY in the sunset park area, well at least the bumper and side skirts are. the seller is asking 320 for the rear bumper . I will be going there tomorrow to personally check out the quality. I will also take pics. I hate that every picture of this kit is the generic one.
