#1, It's different... it does change the lines of the car, but if you like bodykits in general, this isn't half bad. I personally already liked the stock look... I don't like any of the lip kits out there. But the thing is, I'm in an entirely older audience for bodykits. If I was younger, I wouldn't mind being a bit more flashy. Nevertheless, I can still appreciate when something different comes along. I'm not that impressed with any of the lip kits out there, it barely makes any difference. But maybe that's what most of the IS350 people want... something very subtle.
#2, all of the Kenstyle kits looks in that fashion. Just like Ings+1 kits all look the same on whatever car they have. Or Veilside, etc etc... Or Bomex, Or Blackwidow kits, etc etc... It looks like ED used the concept of the Kenstyle and instead of waiting for them to release an IS350 kit, they did it themselves.
#3, As my own personal preference, I like the stock look, then the factory stock lip kit, then this kit, then the rest of the aftermarket lip kits out there, and in that order.
That NGkit is not as nice as the ED kit. That wide rectangular opening.. what's the point of that? The rear on both kits look similar.

The difference is that Element took a lot of time and effort to blend the kit into the factory lines....I'm guessing that's why the angles rather than the front being smooth.
The ED kit looks more like a generic bumper molded to fit the IS. Like most have said....generic everything. I'm sure there will be other kits coming out to select from. I just want to get my Element kit on already.....

Extreme dimension kits are junk! I've had one an another car. It took manymany hours of adjusting and I actually had to create some of my own mount points to get the damn bumper to line up...
Also took an entire ROLL of sandaper to smooth out the fiberglass.
DO NOT BUY IT!
