Default LSportline Body Kit and VIP Wheels

Does any one know where I can purchase an LSportline front and rear bumper only? Price for the pair? New or Used? Also I am looking for a set of used VIP style wheels, prefer a 8.5 front and 10 rear in staggared form. Thanks for any info.

Check the classifieds, those parts come up sometimes but L-Sportline is discontinued so it can be tough to come by so if you see a deal jump on it quick.

Lsportline isnt regarded as a "vip" kit as far as i know.

I would go for something else if you want to go that route.

i always regarded l-sportline as well, more sporty/conservative.

As mentioned, only way to get L-Sportline stuff now is to check the classified ads, since they are no longer in production. A buddy of mine is selling just the rear bumper and side skirts. Don't know if that helps, since you're looking for front and rear, hopefully someone else is selling either the whole kit or you'll have to piece it together.

Your right, I just think it is the cleanest kit. I was thinking of the a Vertex front and sides with the Lsportline rear. I really like the Lowenhart series wheels too and will just purchase other parts until i can find something in my price range.

Default lowenharts

hey socal syko, i gots some 20 x 8.5 front and 20x10 rear lowenhart chrome ld1's that you can see on my old nissan gloria (infiniti M) from japan at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/425467

i was thinking about possibly selling them. I originally paid over 5,500$ in japan (it would have cost like 6,500) in the states, and i just put brand new tires on this past summer and they only have about 2K miles on them. i took them off for the winter and now they are just sitting in my closet collecting dust. they fit perfect on my 99 gs400 and are definitely VIP, trust me. they have a pretty deep offset in the rear and a smaller one in the front. these rims make my gs400 feel so nice to drive, not only do they make it feel so much safer at high speeds (like over 85) but even turning feels more secure with these low pro tires on them. the tires are potenza pole position all weather size 235 35 20 front and 275 30 20 rear i think. let me know if you would be interested, and if so what you feel they would be worth to you. they are used obviously but when clean they can still pass for almost new. i have the proper wheel hub rings and a locking set of lugs as well. they were only used for 3 years roughly 5 months each year (summer time). they have never seen salt or wintry conditions. these rims attract lots of attention...!!

But seriously... the L-Sportline kit is clean.

Almost did this kit myself, but went with Explosion for a
slightly different look.
