just to clarify, is this job design kit for the '06-'07 GS, or for the '08+ GS? i still suck at seeing the differences between the two!

This one is for '08+. The biggest giveaway is usually the chrome grille.

if you talk about facelift on the 08+, front and rear bumpers are both different from 06-07.

if you are asking about the JD kit, i have no idea if there is any difference in the rear. seems not, but who knows

On the JD the 2007 has a different body kit, side skirts, rear bumper are different!

The 2008 kit is called "neo series" has the rear diffuser, blah, blah

looks a little more tracked out but overall almost "almost" the same!
