I'll be posting the LS shortly as well as few more updates on the GS. In the process of making a TTE lip and rear lip but we'll see how that turns out.

was working on making a TTE lip but i put that on hold and decided to try something else. I really like the junction produce look so i went with something a little similar. This is just to get an idea and is not final. I'll update as i continue.
