1-front bumper, side skirts, rear bumper, rear bumper extensions, and door moldings around the bottom of the door. all OEM will get you a complete 97+ kit. headlights are all the same, low's hi's are match for match but the 97 bumper has fog lights. so, you'll have to wire up those fogs customly if you wanna use them but many people rock open holes there it looks fine.
2- our headlights are already projector style. reflecter style has no direction, its just a miror and has a lot of glare. if you look at your headlight you'll see a sphere in there with glass for the bulb. thats the projector.
3- autocouture, vertex, origin, are all big names ($$$) that are not egay crap.

ok thanks for that seems like mixed reviews on fitiment with the body kits and fiberglass cracking n chippin seems like the 97+ might just be the better option. should i buy the parts new from a lexus dealer?
