Default 93 sc300 body kit

Id like to buy a kit for this car. Does anyone know of a kit brand that it is reasonably priced, but most important. Fits nicely without a body shop doing too much modifications?

Hi , look around here https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...ck-thread.html

Most ppl will say go with a Japan company like T & E Vertex or JIc Magic, that are really good but if you are like me and see that your toyota was less then $3,000 why spend the same on fiberglass.

You can go with some Replica, ED , Vis and AIT make affordable kits. also Shine auto. They from what i have seen looking around are hit or miss some are good fitment some need some work others are jacked up from the get go. So this will be Luck of the draw.

then theres lip kits mostly from ebay, easy too DIY to install.

So ultimately it comes out to you and your budget and what look you want.

im thinking the way of 92 front lip with 97+ side skirts. oem looks like 1100 w/o shipping, or 500 on replica ebay(for the diy). could be cheaper in the right region on craigs or a lucky junk yard pull.

the 3 pic set in black(forest green??) is what ill be after. i think it adds a bit of uniqueness since so many that really know what car they own go for the 97+ or pure aftermarket look. the 92 bumper give it that 'granpa' look, but in the right styling i think it keeps a clean look while not been flashy.

Default careful where u shop.

I ordered a 4 piece set from CarID, not really good. The high beam slots had to be filled in, some work has to be done in the low beam area too and fitting them is some work too.

what prices are you looking at? you can get a 92 bumper with lip for like 100-200 on craigslist and members here, 97+ skirts for 200-300 as well. those are some jacked up prices you stated lol.

Brand new OEM 97+ kit goes for around $1900. If you don't mind someones used stuff go for it, but new stuff is always nice.

I remember when I was new to the forum and didn't nkow any better...the memories. SHINE for the win 1200 for the kit, incredible fitmet, the fog inserts give it instant 97+ cred, takes paint well and gives the impression of a 1" drop. Look into it

going with a wise front lip with sides and a rear looks pretty good as well. its prolly your cheapest option as well. fitment on the wise lip is good based on what i have heard. most ppl dont go the lip kit option as well so it would definitely help your car stand out from the rest of the crowd
