No Good Answers...

Ground effects are all about style, so money should not be a problem. They all run about $1000 + paint & installation. The Erebuni kit (www.spoilers.com) is hated by many for its ugly side flares, but it is $600 (www.nopi.com). The most expensive one is probably the Black Widow becase it is so rare and custom. But like a said, its all about style so get what you like, because shelling the extra $300 will make your car suit you much better...

I think that the Sarona Design kit looks nice..........and alot nicer then the stillen one, expecially since you don't see the line where the stillen one is taped on.

STILLEN.

Although many people think the correct spelling is " $tealin' " lol, but I think it looks best. The wings west, erebuni are both stupid looking. The Sarona kit is pretty cool, though I still haven't seen the rear. I think this kit costs more then the Stillen kit because the front spoiler is 1 piece and you have to replace your whole bumper with it. Also the Sarona is not made of the same material that Stillen is, it can break easier.

I still like the Stillen, although everyone has it, it looks great. runs around 800 bucks i think.

from what i have heard, the Sarona kit is very cheaply made and is 100% fiberglass and as we all know fiberglass will just crack and shatter if its ever hit. The Stillen kit is made of?? well i forgot, lol but anyways it wont crack if you ever bottom out. Plus i think the Stillen kit looks the best.

I wanted to tryand make my own

you can buy a universal side skirt and rear valance and shape it it to whatever you like. I was going to try it, but maybe I'll just try the sides. They are about 76" long and made of ABS plastic I think. You can shave it with a file and sand it down smooth to a style you like. They are about $40 each I think.

I would have to agree with you, it's Lexus Intensa blue (IS300 color). But that kit was a horrible fit. Good thing my friend at the body shop is very good. He basically had to custom make the rear bumper. It barely resembles what it looked like when it showed up. It was 5-6" off in some places. Nice kit, but make sure you have a trusted body shop guy install it. Oh, and one of the sideskirts was 2" longer than the other.
