First thing... Go to www.l-tunedparts.com to look at kits and stay away from erebuni. The 1st is a Veilside K1 knockoff and the second is some Civic cyber bodykit. The only thing erebuni that is nice is the JP replica spoiler.

Sorry but just trying to help you out

Sorry, but I don't like them both!

What color is your car? If your car was black, I think you can get away with it.

If I had to choose, it would be the 1st one. If you absolutely had to have a kit, get the first one but please change the rear.

the second kit is a knock-off of the CRUX kit, which is an original design for the GS.

and ya, stay away from erebuni.

Not a big fan of either kit but the 1st one is the better looking of the two. l-tunedparts.com is a great site and there are tons of kits that are nicer looking and wont kill your wallet. My advice would be to spend the extra $ and get a good quality kit and you probably wont have to worry much about the fit.

Default Kit 1

I voted for Kit 1. Looks a little more VIP. Kit 2 looks a little more like JDM. Not that JDM is bad, I just prefer the simplicity of Kit 1.

Why does the first pic set have "Erubuni" on the license???

is it a Veilside knockoff?

and Why is that Veilside rear look so weird? the rear bumper's sides look like they flare out.

Personally not very attractive pictures for both of them. 1 thing to keep in mind, for the Veilside K1 kit, it does not look right when you are sitting at around stock height. The kit looks the best when the car is really low.

and personally..... i like the spoiler...

If you have to choose one of the two, I vote for Kit #1.

I voted for kit 1, even though I'm not feeling any of those kits. The rest have too many angles, and makes the car look like a Hyundai instead of a Lexus. Good luck
