There isn't one with just swb. There's one already with a ton of pics of both short and long. You're better off just browsing that thread. Do a search and you'll find it.

For the most part anything that can be done "cosmetically" to a lwb..can be done to a swb.... the extra 5" are behind the drivers seat for extra legroom in the rear.... i love my swb.... @ 5'7" my rear passengers have plenty of room........enjoy your Ls.

It actually a little harder to get a full kit for a lwb car. Most Japanese kits use swb 460s. There are only a handful of companies that make LWB side skirts. Like Nat had to run Wald skirts, I run Wald skirts, Tony and *****pino runs custom extended side skirts.

Well its actually 3 different kits ..my Ls is an 07..

The rear bumper is from the Wald 2010 Ls600h lip kit molded with 10' exhaust tips
(side skirts are the same yr Ls460 swb Jonari swapped them out for me so i didn't need to chop the 600h skirts to fit) fenders are gen1 Wald that i cut in lumicite for the side maker lighting (& 1 off laser cut emblems).. the front bumper is black pearl with all custom grilles we made at the shop...

Hope this helps... (fyi there are MUCH easier/cheaper direct bolt on kits out there...) but i knew EXACTLY how i wanted it to look... so in for a penny..in for a metric ton...
