What kit are you trying to lower the bitterness on? Maybe there's a reasonable less bitter substitute
From memory that kit isn't too bitter (something like 17IBU's If i guess right), but what are you originally using as your other kilo?
At a rough generalisation (flame suit on and all that), using sugar/dextrose can make the beer pretty thin, thus making the bitterness stand out more.
Hmm, I could only find the concentrated ibus, but am happy to be proven wrong.You could look at other kits that would be similar, I used to use a Beermakers Old can of goo that I quite liked, not sure on the bitterness of it though, I'm sure the info is out there though. Other than other kits, bum's suggestion of adding a bit more malt and diluting it to a larger volume would be the best bet IMO
Edit: @ Petesbrew, I'm pretty sure the dark ale kit is in the 40's. Never tastes bitter to me though
