Default Some GS Fabulous ?'s

It says on the Fabulous site half spoiler, so I assume it is a lip correct and not a full bumper replacement? One more thing is does anybody have the full complete exhaust system preferably on a GS400/GS430? or will this be a first for both the Fabulous kit and exhausts here on CL?


If it is a lip, I cant really tell where it is connected the bumper perhaps its because its molded on or the fact that the car is black.


Exhausts


One more question, does the Fabulous come with doorcaps? I cannot tell from this side pic


-thanks guys

1. The kit is add-on. Everywhere you see "half spoilers" in any Japanese tuner site, that's what it means. What you see on the Fabulous website is the kit got molded on and repainted, that's why it looked like it was replacement bumpers.

2. You will be the first with the Fabulous exhaust here on CL.... Coz it's WAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaayy pricey. If you do decide to get the exhaust, make sure you get the add-on rear bumper or at least some sort of matching rears because the exhaust will stick past the rears quite a bit, in a true VIP fashion.

3. No, the kit doesn't come with doorcaps.

Still wondering if the full exhaust setup will for the any GS4XX car, dont the V300/S300 Toyota Aristos have different piping configurations then the GS4XX counterparts here in the states? I know the rear section will work, but I have no clue on the full setup.

i beleive the exhaust will fit no problem. i don't think they have any different exhaust piping setup for the v300. just like any cat back will fit both gs300 and gs400 no problem

and nop, there is no door cap. but still, it's sup expensive
