first time ive seen it without the fogs and I think it looks pretty good, wald looks better but I would bet you can get lower with the jdm lip.

That does not look like a Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) Celsior lip. It looks like the lip with functional brake cooling ducts that was standard on LS400s in the U.K., Europe and other markets.

I have a good idea where you got that from, LOL!!! Looks really good. I think it is the European lip kit with the functional air ducts. Either way, not many people here have it, so props. Now the only thing left to do is to ship that Wald to 21213 and you are all set.

yepyep, looked into it and its a euro/UK spec front lip, came standard with the same integrated foglight bumper that so many of the 1st gen guys crave
