Default Body Kits IS300 opinion?

hi guys, i would like your guys' opinions on which body kit i should get.

i was looking at this website (since i live in walnut, CA):
http://www.visracing.com/newcatalog/.../Full-Kit-2315

which one would look the best on my 2002 IS300?? if any of you have pictures that show the side/front/back of the car with body kits please share them! or if you own a car that has a body kit please share it with me!

and if i order a body kit, does it come with the spoiler?

thanks. (if you guys know anywhere else i can get parts for cheaper around Walnut, CA please let me know!)

It just depends on your style. Some people prefer JDM kinds, hellaflush, or just for performance.

Its a lot cheaper and easier to just add lips on the existing oem bumpers...A lot fo aftermarket bodykits have fitment issue that will acquire some tweaking..And Aftermarket Fiberglass bodykits can chip and crack relatively easy... It all depends on what style your going for..

i bought a kit from a place off ebay. one of those duraflex bumpers, terrible idea. it already cracked not to mention fitment was a monster. get a lip and get it painted POLYURETHANE no fiberglass no "partial" fiber glass it sucks I went cheap and wish i just did a stock bumper with a lip kit. My two cents homie.
