version select kit or what should i do?
http://www.i-m-racing.com/lexussc300400.html
i was rear ended yesterday and my rear bumper and jic rear valence are gone/demolished )i got pictures, maybe i'll post later
). and to be honest, i'm not sure what i want to do now.
i could get another 96 and below rear bumper and buy the jic rear valence and simply replace it to how it was but now i'm thinking for something more simple (not as many parts). The origin rear bumper looks like it might work with the JIC kit and it's an entire rear bumper. Also, the version select rear bumper is a full rear bumper, but it doesn't look like it wraps around, anyone know? The Version kit also says something about FRP, anyone know if it's any good?
hell, i may just use the money and sell the rest of the kit all together to someone local, how much do a 97+ front bumper, side skirts, and the things about the side skirts go for? (i already have the fog lights and chrome grill).
Or if I do go for the JIC rear valence again (like how it was), does JIC sell the rear valence separately or will insurance need to purchase an entire new kit?
sorry for so many questions, the insurance people should be coming out to my house this week and i'd like to get an idea on what i should do.

ok, i finally found your post on the version select kit. but i also found a post where the guy says it fits nearly perfect. but if the ground clearance is worse than JIC then I'm going to have to stay away.
how does the (version select) rear bumper compare in size with the oem 97+ rear bumper though? does it have the rocker moldings or does a person need the 97+ moldings?
thanks again

hehe, yeah... that's what i'm thinking now... 97+ conversion if it doesn't cost me too much out of pocket
anyone know if there is a rear lip spoiler that will fit the 97+ rear bumper?
