Is that the kit off Ebay? Looks pretty good man, and if it is the price is right. How was the quality of the kit?

Thanks for the comments guys, good or bad. It is not an "Ebay" kit. It is chrome vinyl (5 yr warranty). Had it installed at a graphics shop nearby. I have wanted to do this for some time now. I searched the web for an actual chrome grill to replace the stock one but nobody sells one.

Just waiting until spring to put on the chrome rims. They should match up really well with the front end.

I like it a lot! It gives a more aggressive and stylish look to the front end.

and now you can quote the Cypress hill song... "See me in my Lex with the chrome raised high"

Wish I had some chrome

it would look better if the top grill had thicker slats to match. right now it looks like the car has braces.

That is not a bad idea. I might just do that later on.

I think it would look a lot better. How did you chrome the lower grill?

Is that a GS400 in the last pic? I just got one myself in the same color.
