Honestly, I chose the iForged over the HREs and I am very happy with my decision

Zach- Its the VIS hood, really good reinforced construction by the locking mechanism. I tested it at 140+mph with my old IS300 and this one with no problems. Although a few years back I did blow a fiberglass hood off my Mustang (about 15 ft in the air) with hood pins

Brandon- Seats have been great, I am back down to about a 32" waist so I can still manage to fit them

Justin, just letting you know, dallas isn't that far from louisanna, JPI does super work on 2jz's, he could make you a sweet kit.

is it the picture angle or does it seem as if your rear bumper and sideskirts have a slightly off hue shade of blue???

btw Good call on the wheels.... I think they suit your car perfectly! LOVE the lights!

You are the second person to mention JPI today! Its not far from Louisiana but its still about 9-11 hr drive from New Orleans. They are not really close but my best option at this point.

Uptown- I think I know the pic you are talking about and I saw the same thing but there is a shadow on the bumper if you look closely that is making it seem off hue.
