I noticed in the GS Gallery of this forum the fourth picture in the very first row of page 1, there is a pic titled gs400 added on 3/22 that has the best rear spoiler lip IMHO.

Could anyone tell me which one that is and if it will fit the stock rear spoiler hole attachments as a direct fit? Thanks.

Default Duh, for me...

I just noticed that it says "win kit rear" but is that the Win Racing Rear Spoiler Lip? Is it a direct replacement with the OEM rear spoiler? Thanks for any info...

That's the Win.RACING rear spoiler. Since that car belongs to Carisma then it should be the replica kit, the EVOLUTION kit. That's the same spoiler I have, you can check out more angles of it here:

I don't think they even have holes for the stock spoiler. For me I had to drill holes because just using tape won't hold it firmly in place.

Thanks for the photo views!

One more question...Where did you get that very cool cue-ball Auto Trans shifter? Thanks for any info.

That's a RAZO shift know, I believe something like RA-26. You can easily find it in a Japanese store or any small shops. Comes with adaptors to fit the GS.

Thanks.

I didn't have a stock spoiler. When I bought my car I thought the rear spoiler was exclusively a GS400 option. But oh well, I like mine better

I got my EVO spoiler from Sprewell Racing. It costed me around 260 if I remembered correctly. Then paint costed me another 100 or 120.

Evolution stuff you can only get from a few places I think. Try Carisma or Sprewell.

those are just regular stock bumper lights, painted with a silver spray-on film. Those films come in a spray paint bottle, large size is about 22 bucks. I used the bottle to spray my bumper markers and the 2 inner trunk lights that i've already ripped off.
