Thats not a Greddy lip. Its a Wald add on lip kit all around. Front Sides and Rear are all Wald Sports.

Yup. Too bad it is only a lip. A little custom molding work would make it turn out nice.

Hmm.

If you want something more subtle, then yes. Wald has 2 very nice kits to serve different purposes.

I like the executive kit better than the sports kit. I think the sport kit has lines that are just too sharp and dont flow well with the GS. But the Executive kit will look good molded in. If you were to mold the kit on would you mold it so that there is no step to the lip add on or would you leave the step on it and just mold over the seam?

yes the lines on the sport is definitely sharp, but to get the aggressive look then that's what you have to do

if i were to mold the kits (which i wuldn't do if i get the kit), i would take out the step for sure, otherwise there is no point at all

here's a pic of a guy with the GS sportsline kit that works at Rockford Fosgate in Arizona. Think he sold the car.
