Panel Beater would probably be your best option as the body kit might not fit exactly. Ps Can you post a pic of the front?

A pic of the front of your current front bumper, is it stock or otherwise? The problem with fitting and painting the bodykit yourself is that unless you have experience in fitting and painting it might not turn out very good. Most of the time, when you're buying a bodykit that has been replicated (i.e. not original) it won't fit perfectly and you will probably need to modify it to make them fit. What did you want to know about the car specifically; engine, interior or just all round everything?
BUMBLE.BEE Posted August 17, 2010 Author Posted August 17, 2010 Well yeah i pretty much wanted to get to know as much as possible about the car :D! haha! And with the body kits, ive decided on the JUN one. I can post a picture up of my current kit. Its the stock Rs200 kit. The previous owner has scraped the crap outta both the front bumper and skirts. Ive removed the skirts but have to keep the front bumper on as it would look stupid without it. Heres the link to the kit ive decided on: http://www.bodykitwarehouse.com.au/altezzalexus-bodykit-p-578.html And ill post a pic now of the front :)! Bumble.

Bumble. :o !!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol, mate thats not a stock front bumper, this is a stock front bumper: clicky You have the Legana Front Bar, a very rare now basically discontinued front bar that is very hard to find. If I were you, I'd get it repaired and keep it, otherwise I'll buy it :P Also on your car is the trd grill, can't tell if it's genuine, but if it is, it'd be worth quite alot. I'll pm you a link to find more info on altezza's.
BUMBLE.BEE Posted August 18, 2010 Author Posted August 18, 2010 Yeah the grill has TRD on it, How do i go about getting the kit repaired? Its pretty wrecked from the previous owner! Haha. Bumble.
