I agree, the Benz style grille is lame. But that's not AutoCouture's...that's some other aftermarket thing...AutoCouture's grill is a mesh type with a AutoCouture logo...
Ok, I just update the photo...I just photoshop'd the grille into a open mesh type... Much better!
Kaban - The wheels are AutoCouture Supremes...either 19" or 20"...let me know if you're interested and what sizes you want (and finish)...hit me via PM...

The best aftermarket body kits IMHO are those that add a little more flavor without taking completely away from the original GS designer's intent...
So when you say kinda looks like stock bumpers and such, you have just confirmed Manaray's claim that the kit is clean and not ricey...!!!
Then there are some who want to go the "Fast and Furious" route with the GS...

as soon as i see the rear taillights i think BMW.. thats just what i think sorry...
what i mean about the body kit is that line, it looks like there are two parts, front bumper and then a front lip just doesn't look all cleaned out but it is nice and not ricy but thats just IMO

How much is just the front bumper of this kit?
And what about the front bumper of the version 1 auto couture kit? can you still get it? if so, how much is it?
They don't come pre-painted right?
and I wanna see that benz-look grille on that Auto Couture GS too, I wanna see how a Lexus with a Benz grill and bmw taillights will look with 20" auto couture rims and a body kit!

Sasha/xsuperjoex - I agree..looks BMWish...I don't like it. Might start giving my GS some reliability issues!
Brent - Well stated...
This was the kit I was originally going to get...then I found something that I liked better...a little bit more "fast & frivolous" than the ACS kit (AutoCouture is going by ACS lately) but still within good taste IMO...
Ok, here's the original picture...

What is the difference between the v2 bumper and the v1 auto couture front bumper?
I think I recall Manaray saying before that the bumper was very minimally changed if at all, it was the other parts that were changed, is that right Manaray?
Also, how much lower than the stock bumper does this bumper come? an inch lower than stock bumper? the reason I want to know is because I want to only replace the bumper, so I want to know if it will look ok with the rest of the car being ALL stock.
And, finally, how much is just the version 2 front bumper going to cost? and what about the v1 front bumper?
thanks in advance!
