the nicest kit for the IS...by far, in my opinion is the real one of the RMM one. i think its L-sportline? thats so nice...

you can see the RMM one at mvpmotor. its a great place for all cars and the owner of that site is the owner of supraforums.

the kit is very subtle but enough to notice it and say DAY-YAM.

A if you are talking about RMM body kits then you are refuring to the L-Tuned

L-sportsline sale their own body kit

By the way since someone wasn't very clear its http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/

By the way the kit they have on this page is the RMM kit not the L-tuned by RMM..

VIS and Carisma are RICER..they're both knock-off companies...buy the real thing...otherwise, sell your IS and buy a Honda Civic and do a IS300 front end conversion...

Default ricer?

That hurt my feelings. I'm pretty sure that the only picture from Vis that I put on wasn't an lexus IS300 but a toyota altezza, which is from japan, correct. The honda civic is made in ohio unless you get one from canada. The Rod Millen kit looks good, but you shouldn't knock Vis or Carisma, since they both produce some of the finest show cars in the world

RMM is a knock off company. i was saying i liked the REAL kit of the RMM knock off but i didnt know who made it.

knock offs are gay. they dont belong on lexus'. if you dont have money...dont buy it.

im sorry, i just feel strongly against knock off bull****.

this is what the real L tuned kit would look like:

I know I'm biased, but Stillen builds a wonderful body kit for the IS. It's very sleek, and subtle, just enough to show a difference in that car. IrishIS300 has one and it's registered in the photo album. Also, I do beleive we've cut the prices on those to rock bottom....may be worth checking out.

It's just under $850 for the kit. The wheels come in a set of either 17x8 or 18x8 with your chioce of Kumho, Nito, or Yokohamas for $2,300 to $2,800. Irish also bought the exhaust and some other components if I recall correctly....his car was one of the first that we did, which is why we photographed it and used it in our catalogs. Check out www.stillen.com under cars and scroll up the year, make and model you're looking for.
