Default Upcoming Mods

So I've been waiting for all the new kits to be released / upgraded for the 06+ and it seems all the kits are out now, but supply seems to be limited. Hoping people could give some insight or contacts on mods that I'm considering.

Been looking over all the old posts but most date back pretty far, so I'm trying to get some updated contacts / suppliers. Contacted Carson already, but no response yet.

** '06 Sc430 - Indigo Ink **

: Front :
- Job Design Front Bumper
- Lx Mode Lip
*Weird that these 2 Lx Mode Lips look so different, unless they changed the lip for 06+

: Sides :
- Job Design
- T's Project

: Rear :
- G.Answer

: New Blitz Front Grill : (can't find this anywhere)
- http://www.blitz.co.jp/products/aero...ed/aero_sc.jpg
- http://www.blitz.co.jp/products/aero/aero_speed.htm#sc

- HiD Fogs

- Clear Corners Side Markers

- Injen Intake (couldn't find 06+)

Would be nice to get everything from 1 supplier for a bundle deal, but that's not likely. Any supplier / contact update on who I should go to would help.

Thanks

sounds like a nice project. Have some patience doing the fogs. The bumper will have to come off, so if you are using an aftermarket bumper it would be easy to do it together.

Instead of clear side markers, have you considered changing all to one color?

For front bumpers my favorite is Answer. The sides and rear I would probably go for JD also since its really flows well together.

I couldn't get to your 2nd link to the LX-Mode front lip, but I do have the first one and it does look good on the car. I too am thinking about the side skirts and rear bumper lip, not sure which ones though. I seen Wald has a complete package, front, sides, and rear. How do the sides go on, do they go over the existing factory sides or do you need to remove them? Any pictures with 06+ would be great.

Sorry for the lack of replies. Placed the orders and headed out of town. but just got back recently and received the Lx-Mode lip.

Getting it painted at Marco's Auto Body, but hoping someone could recommend a good body shop in / near 626 area (San Gabriel / Pasadena) with Lexus kit installation experience.

Thanks

Wald sides replace the OEM sides. The front and rear tack-on to the OEMs.
