I am thinking about purchasing a body kit from japan. The problem is that it wont fit unless i take out my 5 mph bumper. Is it bad to take it out? What do you guys think?

I'm going to buy a body kit when I saved up enough money. I was told that its really not a big deal,... you're removing a layer of protection, however, just be careful when you drive... try not to hit anything... you'll damage your body kit in a snap. Also, I'm not sure but I think there are some sensors attached to the front bumper that's pretty vital... if anyone knows about this, please let me know...

I assume there have to be legal issues surrounding removing the 5MPH bumper. You should check with your DMV. I personally wouldn't, Lexus are expensive enough to repair as it is. Think about it, what if some moron backs into you or something? Without the 5MPH bumper you'll have more damage.
