Since you have a 95, i agree. I never liked my 92 front, but it definately wasn't "horrible".

Aside of the AC kit, there really isn't anything aside of the '97 that blends in well and looks good. When you get outside the box into wilder kit's, it starts looking less like a classy lexus and more like a street racer, but that's ok as long as you dig it.

Totally agree with what Bryan said. But when you actually see the origin kit on a car it doesn't look right for some strange reason. Maybe it's the fact that it's on a white cae. or the angle. It looks alright in the pics but just doesn't do it for me. Anywho, buy that kit. It's an excellent price.

kinda turns into a honda del sol from a front view with some kits too........i've got piercings, tats, usually wear a boggan when it's cold and i do construction........classy doesn't fit me (yeah, it gets driven to work)

some of you are gonna think it's a disgrace, but i had to haul lumber in it last week lol

The price is good. But I'd rather just get the Vertex rear, sides, and maybe get the pheonix or Vertex front.

OEM 97-00 all the way. It costs a lot, but is well worth it. Nothing beats the OEM quality and ABS plastic.

My door moldings, fogs, grill, rear rockers, rear bumper and all clips should be here tomorrow. WOO HOO! Just those were about 1000 at cost. I already had the sides and front.

That kit looks great, very very clean. I don't think it is *that* much like the Vertex kit, although similarities are obvious, they are margainally different. I like this one a little more. I'd ****** it up for that price.

Sides and rear are nice but without a Big FMIC the front is just "eh"(On a black SC would look a tad better) Nothing beats the 97+ in my opinion. Other than that its an alright looking kit. Their are MUCH worse out there.

If you like and your happy Im all for it.
