There was already a thread on this. It's an aftermarket kit that includes the hood, fenders, grill, front bumper, etc. I don't think it flows well though because of the shape of the headlights and taillights.

Something about the loooong front end in front of the front wheels. I prefer the original front end. It would look better if it were shortened up a bit.

The 2GS is a classic design....... most of which is made up of the front end IMO.


If you want a 3GS front end, go buy a 3GS. Without a doubt, you will save a TON of money in the process, because you will not recoup any of that in re-sale and it will be costly for the body shop to do.

I like the LS430 front end on a LS400 better.

wow, this is the first time i've seen this. i like the look alot, but agree the cost to benefit ratio isnt there. still looks clean.

it looks more like an acura though; lower, slender, longer front end, and shorter, taller rear.
