Default Aero kit

Has anyone tried this body kit from L-Tuned Sports? It must be popular because they just raised the price $100. http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=1992

I have this kit, likewise most other members. It's known as the GFX kit.

Any pictures? It's real hard to tell what you get from the ad. Do they come already painted?

TIA

Great pix, nice cars. Tell me more! How much does it lower the body? Does it snap on or bolt on? Does it replace or add to the lip, the rockers, the diffuser? Its hard to tell from stock so I'm just wondering the difference. How much at SEWELLS? Is it worth it, I mean does add to the coolness of the car? I'm just starting to mod my DD. Being a newb, I've added tint, a K&N CAI and XM radio.

It replaces the OEM lip that is on the car now. Click link below to see how to install the front lip without cutting its very easy. ALso do a search for the rear kit install. Overall i dont think it makes the front any lower then it is now but just adds the look.. Sewell i think is selling the whole kit for 400 but only in certain colors.

Picked up the front GFX lip from the local Lexus dealer (Pohanka) for under $100. Got a K&N CAI off Ebay for $200 shipped. There are good deals out there now due to the economy.
