Default Bought my first Lexus. Need help identifying aero kit!

Im new to the forum and to owning a Lexus so figured id introduce myself. After owning a few miatas, a GC8 impreza, and an e30 BMW I finally decided it was time to get something a bit more comfortable to drive every day. So I went and picked up a 1998 GS 300 the other day and so far I love it. It has the 2JZ engine and is bone stock besides lowering springs and an aero kit that the first owner had installed. Normally im not a big fan of aero kits unless its on a race car but I kinda like how this one looks and i think itll look way better with a decent set of wheels installed. Only thing is that im not sure which brand the aero kit is and was hoping someone on here might know. I searched online and through other threads on here but I cant seem to find one that is the same. So if anyone would like to give some input it would be greatly appreciated!

From a fellow Miata/Scooby owner - welcome to the club! I'm jealous of your white GS. I want a white one.

Good luck identifying that aero kit.

Is the rear a half bumper or a whole replacement, it looks like the color is a little different below the chrome strip. Cant say i have seen that kit before. The grill is an "l-tuned" for sure.

A nice Blitz Nur Spec Exhaust system will fill that space on the rear bumper perfectly, search it up!
