Yes, i would love to see some pics too! This is by far my favorite kit for the 2nd gen GS.. It's a bit too pricey though, especially when you consider the face that its just a LIP kit

I think the price is right in line with the Wald and AC lip kit. I really like the smooth sideskirts and front lip on this kit I will have to put this up there with the Wald Executive now

Pricing is actually pretty reasonable for anything in the Lexus realm. Too bad the pics are AGAIN on a black car so you can't see all the details, although this kit is pretty straightforward.

From TLW currency calculator the kit comes out to be about $1200, or a little less than that. But on Steves site the price is $1850. Where can I get this kit at the 1200 price? I really love that front bumper, and think it would look great molded in. But not too sure about the rear bumper? I really need some better pics to help with this decision.

i think you have to figure that 100 yen =1 dollar

thats what alot of Japanese companies go buy as the YEn is always fluctuating

Rich why the sudden interest in this kit ??

I have been staring at the wald executive for months now and the front bumper lip just leaves me wanting a bit more. But the Wald sports is too much, too angular. I really like the JP kit but dont want to spring the extra dough on that. I already spent $3k+ on a kit and dont really want to do it again. I was going through steves site and this little kit caught my eye. I havent heard of anyone on CL talk about it or have it. But I just like the shape of the front lip and sideskirts, just clean and classy. The rear bumper is the only thing Im not sure of because I cant tell what it looks like Thats why I want a pic of this kit on a lighter color car. It has to be out there somewhere

ditto, considering we drive GS's and our kits are usually $2000 and up this lip kit is very well priced! at a regular price of 1200 versus other lips kits that go on sale for around 1400. I think its the best priced kit out there. Personally I'm not a fan of the front but do admit it looks good in black, but then again alot of kits look good in black.

Its actually $1828.57 on l-tuned parts website. Not sure who else will import this kit but that is probably going to be the going rate. So it is a little more than the Wald, when not on sale, and the AC kit.

Well, you have to remember 1200 is a rough price to buy it there. Shipping it to the states is another cost. I believe Steve's pricing includes shipping to the US docks. (I am sure Steve will correct me if I am wrong. ) There is additional shipping pricing to your door.
