Default UCF21 cheap aero?

I'm not trying to spend $3,000 on some kit thats just gonna get beat up. I see that ebay has some really cheap (and probably poor fitting) kits for the ucf10, but where are they for mine?

I'm not scared of work to make it fit. Any suggestions besides make my own from scratch?

many ppl moving into the vip scene coz the cars itself are getting cheaper. Too bad the parts arent, gotta pay to play

I'm not really moving to that scene. But I figure if I got the car, might as well kinda play the part a bit. So long as it doesn't take away from my true passion:

Agreed. I think version select might be your best bet. If i remember its like 1k range for a full kit. Thats probably about as cheap as youre gonna get

I looked at the VS stuff and decided I'll probably just scrap this idea completely.

But I did manage to pick up some ez street's and trying to get some bmw style 95 wheels from my buddy. So stock body and kinda low will work.

Thanks. But if anyone does stumble onto something feel free to post it for everyone else.

Your right. Lexus and cheap don't mix. Very great quality for sure. Very few would claim otherwise.

But why not inexpensive? Hell the car is over 14 years old and only worth an average of about 9k. You can get a decent looking kit for the ucf10 for $700... Why not the 21?

Try upgarage. I got my genuine Wald kit for $500 shipped to my door. Had to cut each piece in 2 but only took a day to put back together (fiberglass).
I personally hate the fact that they waaaay overprice kits for these cars. Makes me wanna rock fake **** just to stick it to'em.
You could always go custom like romeo291.
