Hey watch it now thats the same body kit that I have. Either the digital camera is crappy or this has been photoshopped. The rims i think. Look at the rear of the side skirts...they are straight....way too straight.

It's alright. The rims are far too ghetto for my taste and I'm not a huge fan of the chromed mirror covers (except maybe on a black RX)... I've seen body kits I like more too... I'm not saying it's all bad - it's pretty slick really. Just a few things I don't like, and I've seen RX's I like much better than that one.

is that in japan? that kit is is for rice rockets. not a luxury car. i mean its not bad, but i wouldnt go with that kit for a lexus. other than that, he should clear his side markers and headlight signals. then the car will look real clean. but yea ld'1s r tight. i think lowenhart br5's r better. which i want. or traffic star dtms. most rx's with kits have those side blinkers, i wouldnt mind gettin them. i think u can get em from japan?

silversport,

I agree with pretty much everything you said for the most part... I don't know if the kit is ricey, but it's too boxey for my taste - looks like that new toyota cube van j/k

For whatever reason, I like the front air dams and rear skirts and DEFINATELY spoilers on a RX, but I just don't like sideskirts - makes it look too minivan.

That second RX pic that you posted is tight - it's one of my faves.

I don't like the side blinker either though actually now that I'm looking at it again - it looks like a pimple or blemish on the side of the RX - it's still a nice looking RX, but screws with the look just a little bit and I like it better without it!

leebro3 and MCV20 are my favorite hooked up RXs in the forum - I don't like everything about either one of them, but they've got some great things going on.

I really like this one too:

CK,

That pic is 100% Auto Couture. The best
price I could find on the grille alone is $429.

Beautiful, but pricey.

Daddy - from what' I've seen of them, AutoCouture is the creme de la creme - nice stuff... Pricey, but you get what you pay for... The only thing I'd change about that one is the grill though, so it's funny you mentioned that part of it. I REALLY like the look of the Tom's grill. Thanks for the tip though - didn't realize it was a pic straight from them - should've figured it out by the professional looking photo shot with the sweet background and all.

Originally I tried to get that Auto Coture kit but I kept calling and no one spoke english...strange. Finnally I gave up and settled on Erebuni.

P.S.-Thats not my kit, its the other Erebuni kit. Mine is VERY similiar though. Glad to see my kit is such a hit on this site
