Current WALD kit, I'm confused :(
 
On l-tuned website it says that WALD kit fits 2006-2010 models. When I asked some of the vendors here, they say it wont fit. How can I find out for sure ? Seeing that WALD has not updated the kit since the 08 change, perhaps it does fit 08 models? :sad:

they won't fit. the wald lips will only fit 06-07 and not 08+, unless they came out with a new one already (which i am not aware of). last i checked i couldn't even fit the lip on coz' 08+ bumper flares out more at the bottom

Thanks! Yeah, I figured something was wrong here... I'm also not aware of any updates. And it sucks, because I like the kit a lot :(

I noticed that a lot of the 06-07 GS body kits on L-Tuned say they work for 08+... which from what I was told is not true. Hopefully they'll get around to updating the info one day.

The only 3GS body kit on the website I can think of where they left a warning saying that it's for 06-07 only is the Carson Tuned one.

They better change that info. from 08 and up , the bumper and side mirrors were restyled ( wheels also)

that's interesting. if they know their kits won't fit 08+ then they should know other kits won't

Yeah, I hear ya on that. I asked them about a GS body kit a few weeks ago if it would fit on 08+ GS since the webpage said "2006-2010" but when I got a response they said it was 06-07 only. I figure they just haven't gotten around to updating the info. :sad:

So, I've contacted WALD.....And I got some bad news. I dont think we'll be seeing an update from them

WALD does not make a facelift kit for the 2008+ GS. The 06-07 kit wasn't a great
seller in japan nor in North America. The trunk wing and roof wing will still
fit the 08+.

Best,

Sales Team

that's too bad! :sad:

and yes the wald has been a very slow seller on the 3gs compared to their setup for other models. it's all subjective but i think their 3gs kits have been way too subtle compared to their similar setup for other cars. no idea why they did this, but that's kind of bummer. i had wald for both my sc430 and ls460l and i love them, when i saw the 3gs setup i couldn't believe it

^ have to agree.. i don't like some kits for new line ups though. way too bz imo.. i'm talking those kits with 4 fog lamps and splitters..

oh yeah, their newer styles for the 3, c, and is are totally 0_o to me, i keep on scratching my head wondering what's going on

their kits for the previous "generations" of cars like 2gs, sc430, ls430, ls460l, sl, those are all very nice

Wunko Apr 30, 2009 11:46 PM

I agree, the Wald 3GS kit doesn't exactly have that noticeable design.
