I dont think eyelids should be put on any luxury car.. Ever.. And that hood emblem makes it look like a wannabe benz and confuses people since it looks like a lincoln emblem. U have wierd taste man but to each his own thats just my opinion. I love the color!

Love the color (same as mine), love the wheels, love the mirrors, love the front spoiler lip (I just ordered a urethane lip).

Not crazy about the eyelids bcuz I think that's more of a girl thing.

Quick question - are you rims 20 inch ?

Nar mate they are 19s I had to get rid of the 20s after I went TT just to heavy!

Im so surprised how many people don't like the eye lids. after I got the car the big bubble merc wanna be lights where the only thing I hated from the word go. I always felt like they where they only part of the GS that made it look Dated!

Im not sure what to do with it now options are SIngle turbo and ecu for 500HP daily
or get an IS250 and and isf half cut and do the swap. and before everyone jumps the gun here IS-fs in Australia are expensive the cheapest second hand one you will find will be around 80k

i like everything except for the hood ornament. the eyelids dont really fit well with these cars. the only cars that can really pull off eyelids is the Neon SRT-4. thats only because of the really aggressive front grill, so when you put eyelids on the SRT4 it gives it a really mean and aggressive look. whereas the eyelids on the GS gives it a tired and sleepy look.

Nice lip! Agree with everyone else on the eye lids and hood ornament. But if you like it then rock it!

I don't think our headlights look dated at all, especially compared to the 90s early 2000s e class, those look so much older than our cars, our headlights look like the mid 2000s e class, people always think my cars an 06 Or so so I'd say it looks great for it's age compared to most 99 cars
