I like the front lip, not sure how I feel about the rear, but at least it's different for now untill it hits the masses. Congrats on the ride!

Its not my car.... I took the picture from the port. The kit only fit on the '09. the bumper had to be drilled to be installed. I don't think the tape can hold the lip alone... but then again you guys can try it.

I was thinking the same thing, either he IS is looking like the corolla or the corolla is trying to look like the IS .

I gotta say, this kit is more noticeable compared to stock. Where as the previous kit only thing that stands out are the front spoiler.

Looks nice!

I'll say it like this.... for those who want it to look after-market and stand out, it's great. For those who want it integrated and "as one," it falters. Personally, I don't like it because it looks tacked on much like a Corolla S.
