Default CAn anyone tell me what bodykit this is?

i found this on the wald website, its not a wald GS kit, it seems to be custom, and ive seem alot of this types of front ends (blackbison) on everything from sedans to minivans.
It looks like a wald merc CLS/SL black bison kit molded on to a lex front end.

anyone have any info?

There's elements of that, that I really like, but on closer inspection, the pointiness of certain parts doesn't gel with the 3GS shape.
Maybe if the grille was pointed to match the front, it wouldn't look quite as disjointed as it does.

It has potential, if they'd reigned it back a bit - sometimes less definitely is more.
The four DRLs each side appeal - quite novel.

Fixed!

Too much Gallardo/trapezoidal angles for the 3Gen

A lot like Lambo and a bit like M.B. This kit has too many angles and lines do not fit well with 3GS

Guys, he asked for info, not your opinion on it. Although it IS quite a bit hideous phahahaha.....

This one is trying to do a little too much. Check out the crystal auto kit. It's a little better than this one.
