The kit will be on my iS. The front bumper will not fit but I already have something for that.

That sure is a clean looking 2000! I don't know if you need another vehicle, but if the engine has been maintained the way the outside appearance has been, I think I'd carefully inspect the front driveshaft and transfer case splines, and if they're okay, then install a re-manufactured transmission. The aero-kit definitely adds to the street appeal in my opinion. There could be another 200,000 miles left in it with the right care.
