Bodykits
I need to find a bodykit that makes down force. I was thinking about decking my IS300 with a C-West body kit and the C-west GT carbon fiber Spolier. Can i get some ideals?

The only reason that I can imagine that you'd need downforce for is track racing. Every other type of racing doesn't produce the speeds you need in order to utilize any additional down force. In order to get a useful amount of down force you would have to have a car designed for down force.

No body kit is going to give you down force. I had a C-West kit and it flexes a lot. I had an authentic one so I'm sure a replica will be worse. If you want down force get a 2"-3 front splitter and or front canards and a rear wing.

lol. Since people are obviously referencing this material in some fashion:
The C-West kit is over played! Almost every newbie to this car seems to comment about this kit but there are ten other kits that are more functional and a better fit for the car. Shop Around!!
