Default new IS300

what up everyone ..... im a new member and i wanted some advice. im purchasing a new IS300 in black this week sometime and i wanted to put a mean looking body kit on the car. I want to know if anyone has any suggestions and if it is smarter to have the lexus dealership paint the kit for me or if i should take it to an after market place and have it painted ?????

it all depends on how experienced your dealer's body shop or any one shop that you decide to have them work on your IS. on aero kit, installing is just as important as a good apint job. this is esp true if the kit is fiberglass material...ask around for references, that is the best way to go.

i work for the largest lex dealer in the western US, and we have one of the largest toyota, lexus, I-car gold class certified body shop in the country. but the body shop manager is very reluctant to handle fiberglass kit as they require more effort for best result...even for an employee's car.
