2nd gen GS is basically a budget car now. Hell I just bought my 99 gs400 from the original owner about 2 months ago for $2500. It is in absolute pristine condition, except for the starter which I just replaced. It was cheaper than every other car I've owned (5 240sx hatches and a Nissan hardbody).

To the OP, I'm planning on running the same rep kit. The one you posted, the front and rear are basically the same but the side skirt is a little different.

Also, Version Select make a rep kit as well. It's the Type II kit, the front and rear are the same, but again the sides differ slightly.

Thank you for not being a **** like that other guy lol I've seen many people with rep kits idk what's that guys problem. I'm sure just my air suspension and wheels alone would sum up to more then the net worth of his car but who's counting or pointing fingers. Thanks again for the help it is much appreciated.

LoL my paint job probably cost more than your suspension and wheels. And add MY air and wheels and my kit and my system... lets see, I'm at about $20k on my ride (not including purchase price of the vehicle) if you want to count. I only make my comment because its commonly frowned upon with people supporting companies that steal what an original manufacture created and selling it as their own for undeserved profit, its counterfeiting, yet somehow still legal.

I couldnt imagine the sum of your suspension and wheels if you're on a "budget" and looking for a rep kit... Just sayin.

Gents, there is no need for all of this drama.

A lot of the Lexus OGs do not support knock off, but let us put an end to this now before further escalation!!
