What do you mean? If you pay the company for shipping/handling/etc/etc... all the import fees... wouldn't they just send the grill to you? If they sell it to people in Japan and charge them for local shipping.. wouldn't they just charge us international shipping prices?

looks like an sc430 grill to me. *or makes the car look similar to an sc430

i personally couldn't see spending that money on that grill. L-Sportline/rodmillen is nice enough

Personally that grill would not be put on my GS..
But if you like it, good... That's all that matters..
I do like the effort, great job...

just one of several we've built... thanks for your comments, always welcome...

i like the fact that i'm in control of exactly what goes on the front of my car... i'm not constrained by what's available on the aftermarket.
