All IS300's in the US came with HIDs, unless the previous owner hacked it up or swapped for JDM non-HID housings.

So you don't need a kit. Just bulbs. D2R are the type you need.

yes, you will need a kit for the fogs - they are pretty cheap everywhere. Depending on the year of your car, you have to get the right size/type, here:

2001 - 2002 = 9006 (2003+ = H3-55w)
