I definitely like the front lip on the 09 X package better but I like my current rear better.

IMHO, It doesn’t look like a factory kit.. it looks aftermarket, that said the front isn’t bad, but the rear is puke..

The wheels for the US version are supposed to be the same. The photos of the white car are from Dubai.

My X-pack is floating as we speak. Can't wait. Looks great.

That front looks great. In general, the front looks pretty good.
The rear, however, looks awful. The rear GFX has that bulge that completely ruins the natural lines of the car, and the taillights stick out so much (and are so ugly) that the entire rear of the car looks terrible on the 09s. I like the x-pac wheels a lot ... too bad most people will be getting lobster claws instead...

anyway, 09 front GFX rest of 09 changes

Looks good but I'm not a huge fan. The front lip doesn't seem to "flow" with the car, but the back bumper looks good.
