Looks like an oversized toy car to me. Horrible idea. What a waste in fab work and GS lights and grille!

That looks horrible but I did see a 4runner with a GS front grafted on to it in Queens. The guy called it a GS4-runner. It actually looked good and had me doing double takes.

That car's still a little bit better looking than a black Tercel with Lexus emblem, Lexus badge and SC300 badge I saw earlier tonight.

I felt like kicking that car since it was parked next to mine.

Note to self: if i ever design a car, make the grill less than a foot above the headlights.

preferrably even.

Hm, Well.. No, I can't even say one good thing about it. Very Ugly!

On a side note...

Brice,

What is your icon? The girl looks scary!

and Two, Can you photoshop that ugly truck to have the GS grille in line with the lights? I think it could improve it slightly. ... Slightly I said, but not enough.

Dang....that looks so stupid! Notice the grill needed to be raised up cuz there wasn't enough room between the headlights. LOL!!

Im sure if he got into a front end accident....he would probably cry cuz its take some time to customize it again.
