I Can't Decide, GFX Kit or Not
 

I am about to purchase the Lexus IS 250 and it's coming down to crunch time. I can not decide on getting the GFX or not. Please anyone with or without leave your opinions. And pls. post pics if you can.

IMO if you want just a bit of spicy to your IS go for the GFX (I presonally like it) if you want something sexy then you should go for other kits in the market...

Definately.

You can get a painted OEM kit for about $1200.

An aftermarket body kit can run up to $4000 unpainted.


Here is a thread with links to all the body kits available for the 2IS.

I like it, especially the rear lip.

Thanks. It's just so hard to decide cause I am looking at all the pics of the IS's and some look really good without any kit at all.

^I am def. getting the rear trunk lip or did you mean the rear bumper lip looks good.

My favorite is the Fabulous front lip spoiler with the GFX sides and rear ground effects. And of course, the trunk lip spoiler.

EZ...
Put two cars side by side, the one with and the one without... it is like ISx50 vs Civic.
I did this side by side comparison at dealer and ended up the GFX is a must!

if you have $$$ to spend, go with the aftermarket one....

not even...go through the site sponsor, sewell Lexus, I got mine for 950 shipped, painted..but again I live in TX. I'd say some where around 1k shipped to you. Do keep in mind...OEM lip kit does req. ALOT of drilling, twenty something holes for the back bumper. I'd go with the aftermarket if they're just taped on.

I should add GFX kit in the list, soon.

naa looks just like stock.. the front lip is the only thing i can really notice.. get a different kit

Depends, if you leave your car stock, go for the GFX kit.

^ I think by adding rims it will look %100 better then stock not that your car dosen't look good.

17" sucks, too bad they only offer 17" in UAE. i'll be getting new rims later ;)

The front lip makes the most difference IMO. I just bought that for ~$300 and will install myself. I see other ppl here doing the same, with the DIY guide.
