Default Tom's 09 Body Kit

Hey everyone,

I've currently got the previous Tom's rear lip installed on my IS250 but having just spoken to my Tom's distributor. He says that the new Tom's rear lip for the 09 IS250 will fit the older IS250's but just need slight trimming underneath.

The 09 rear lip looks like this:



I wanted to know if i go for this, do I have to change the exhaust to a quad exhaust or can I simply just put twin adaptors/tips on each end to give the quad look?

Thanks

I guess that's good news for all those who want the Tom's quad exhaust on their 2IS's. Thanks for sharing the info.

you should check with the distributor and ask them if the rear lip will come to fit the Quad pipe
because I know Wald Quad Pipe does not fit the Wald Rear lip,,you need to modify a little bit to make it fit, so it might be the same..Toms rear might come to just fit the single tip on each side

Any chance you might know of any Tom's distributor in Texas do ya? I've got an 09 350 and am looking for a Tom's is45 bodykit. If not, can you give me contact info to the one you're using? I appreciate it!
