Looks nice in black but I'd definitely like to see it in a different color, so at least I can see the lines of the actual kit

agree, at the most i can only see a bit on the front end.

i like how it is though, that the center part of the front bumper isn't all filled up like the sc430. this is just cgi, i wonder in the final version whether they can do this. no one has any idea what's behind those covered area of the bumper

I agree.
LS already has:

1. Big brake
2. Nice integrated exhaust cover
3. Nice stance

Maaaaaybe different wheels (and a subtle/classy kit if needed-my opinion). Their 5 star wheel pattern is not bad/ok

Otherwise, I can't wait to get my hands on this car.
