I'd say for the IS/Altezza, the C-Wings kit looks the tightest on it.

btw, although I'm not a fan of the altezza lighting, I don't understand why there's somuch hate on these cars...

I was gonna buy one but I get the impression that peeps are saying it's a wannabe/bottomline Lexus, that it sucks blah blah....etc.

then again, why should i care right? i get that from driving a civic

I want one, but it snows here too much so I dunno That's why I'm looking at a turbo forester and my S13 to practice my total lack of stick shifting skills

Well, I don't see why the hatre start??? It was create to target bimmer 3-series market. I would say it's a luxo car with emphasis in the performance. It's a nice car.

Hey I think the lights look alot like the US lancer lights. I was parked next to one this week and they are basically the same size. I think with a body kit and lowering springs and they are basically the same thing. Wishful thinking

But I drove one in the Caribbean where I am from and they are nice. I did not get to open it up on our small roads though.
