I agree that's a great look, Does that kit use a different front bumper than what is stock on the car? The reason I ask is that on the 450h there are all of the censors for the collision alarms as well as the cruse control censors.

lol thanks guys.

i have 08 gs, but the job design kit i have is 06-07. everything is just direct swap. Mike450h, you won't have to worry about sensors, they were all ported over on my car including parking sensors, i didn't lose any functionality. if you have radar cruise control, the radar is behind the L emblem i believe, so you just have to be careful on that

my kit is full bumper replacement both front and rear. if you want to reuse stock bumpers, you will need to get lip kit

Thanks for the info!

Can you private message me or tell me about what your costs were for...

A: How much you paid for the kit?
B: How much did it cost to install, paint....est?

I found that kit online, it looks like it runs between $3100 to $3700 depending on who you buy it from.

Just trying to get an ideal of what I am looking at laying out to do this project.

Thank You!

Mike
