didn't know that. I guess I will have to check the fit today. Are you talking length wise or height wise?

I took measurements just now and the Crown rear shade is about 44 inches in length. I will fit the GS with room to spare on the sides. As far as height wise I can just adjust the slant angle to fit the GS. I think fitment shouldn't be a problem.
where did you get ur rear shade from?

i had a source ship it from Japan. The way that crown one is shaped, it should sit towards the very back of the window towards the trunk. The aristo has brackets that sit up front . There should be screws that you can adjust how high it goes up.

I don't if its just me bu the the bottom grill looks bigger than the top grill But I'm guessing the way the picture was taken.

Good luck with the build what ever you don't want I'm sure members here will buy some of it.

Love the OEM folding mirrors

I'd be all in for buying the Fabulous bumper off you if it goes up for sale. Although it looks as if a bunch of other people want it as well!! LMK if you decide to sell!
