Rockero28:

Nice touch to your ride. I personally think it'll look good on all GS.

I noticed that the new 2002 Camry (higher models) with a chrome bar....maybe its gonna be a standard soon.

The Camry has it on the luxury models, just not the sport.

Do they make a thinner chrome trunk bar... more like the LS?
otherwise it looks good! But lose the IS rims

If it makes any diference.. it is an OEM Toyota part for the Aristo...Not an aftermarket piece.

Didn't I see this art all over e-bay lately for much cheaper? At least for LS4 there are plenty. Check ebay.

I'm sorry, and I'm not the guy that first said this (so I can't take credit), but it makes it look like a Lincoln LS. Its not bad, but extra chrome usually ages a car (a la Cadillac.) That's why I'm on my second silver GS. I like the monochrome look.

Where I live chrome is like a drug. First you start small, then the next thing after chrome wheels you'll soon have the lower door sills, the wheel wells, the black spaces around the windows, and then a chrome Rally stripe with some kind of ghetto logo. Eventually its just too late and you'll have a chrome spoiler to go with the chrome trunk floor and fake spare tire.

Now I know what my next mod will be.
