I'm not feeling it. The front looks too low and out of proportion to the rest of the car, imo. And I don't like the side skirts....they are too square. The back is ok, but I'm not crazy about the grooves in the bumper. Overall, it looks a bit too rice for my taste. Just one opinion in the wind.

Actually I think I take it back, the TOM's rear is not bulky enough, it wont match the ING's bulky looking front.

IMO the INGS+ being way lower than the toms will look kind of weird. I'm voting no.

Is that the new Northrop Stealth fighter in white?

Looks GREAT!! says my chinese buddies. That car would look good near here in Monterey Park/Alhambra or in Westminster in OC, and where I live here in Ktown? It would be a sceam for CarJackers Invite.

I love the way I don't have to worry about that loud "scuff" sound when my car goes up the driveway but that front looks long and low...I can hear that grrrrrrrrkkkkk-scruff...

personally i dont think it will flow well only because the Toms kit is not as bulky as the Ings+1 kit... and it seems to be much higher
