Default Rear body kit
Is there a rear kit for the IS250 AWD that does not require you to remove the rear bumper--i am kind of afraid of doing that. The GFX is a major undertaking with cutting and all sorts of stuff.

If you are afraid of cutting it, just take the tabs off and screw the ends in and make the sure the double side tape holds well. I cut holes in mine

I'm not positive but I think most (if not all) aftermarket rear lip (beside the lexus GFX) doesn't require cutting unless u want to modify it.

no kit for the 2is requires cutting. you'll get plenty of testimonials from people who just tape the gfx rear lip on with double sided tape and have never experienced any sorts of problems with it. ever.

But do you NEED to remove the bumper?
