Nup.. Its way too much.. Seen plenty of them here, and they always bottom out and look like crap from all of the banging around they get..When going over bumps and the like, they make the car look overly stiff and boxy... Just something subtle like George's kit is the way to go...

Maybe if it was a little higher with the kit. If I had the kit i would just drop it a 1.0 or 1.75.

Oh I definately agree that the drop is way too much.. But like I said, you see these kits everywhere here in Japan, and everyone that I have been with have always commented on the boxyness and stiffness of it.. It just looks unatural when you see it driving down the street.. I think each to your own, but when does comfort and practicality take over pure synthetic looks?.. I dont want to go down the road like others who say, that we drive a Lexus and so you should keep it all stock. But I do agree to the point of what is over the top and unpractical. Or what is tastefull and refined... I prefer my ES to look sporty, but still remain a luxury vehicle... Just my thing I guess?

the only reason that kit looks good is because the car is slammed... it wouldnt look right if it was only a 1inch drop or something

the problem with that pic is it's a super clean kit on a super boring car. the car is white, the kit is clean, and the wheels are subtle. if the car was any more boring id fall asleep looking at it.

SOOOOO....

change the color, put a little accent to the kit with a custom hood or something, and go a little wilder with the wheels and KA-BOOM, you got a tight little ES.
