I decided to buy the modellista lip from Nigel, he's gonna see what he can do to get the shipping fee down.. I'm confident he can get it down to about 180 to 200, now I get wait 2 months for it to arrive 🙁🙁

your right, the lux design didnt get too much lips and aftermarket parts as it is. i almost went with the fsport conversion but luckily aimgain stepped up and came out with something for us!

bit pricey, i paid almost 750-800 for the front lip ( not painted ) but it makes a HUGEEEEEEEEEEE difference. everyone and their mother has the f sport and quite frankly i was sick of see all the f sports. i do not regret not getting the f sport at all.






this is how she sits now, all layed out and what not couldve went lower but you know im in NYC so all the cars are AWD. i was limited to how much more i can go but im content.
hope this helps you decide on what to do with your car!

@neegroy: Nice ride - the front lip def. sets your ride apart from most 4GS's on the road How was the install of the lip? Did you have to drill into the bumper?

Ride looks great bud!!!! Very Nice!!!! I think any Non F Sport with a front lip is definitely a rarity on the road , and on the forum... Nice to see something different for a change..

Hey acnup00tl, can't wait to see that lip mounted on your car. Sorry I completely forgot to check back into this thread. You had requested pics of my conversation so here it is. It was a simple swap of the bumpers but I did have to modify my lower grille as I decided to use the non F Sport grills with my f sport bumper.

No worries bud!!! I kept up with your thread , and transformation 😉😉😉. I almost went your route, but wanted to be a little different.. The F Sport conversion would of cost me more than the lip , so I just decided on Modellista.. My GS is gonna look different than everyone else's esp with the lip , and the 19 F Sport wheels I purchased .. I don't think anyone has these F Sport wheels on there 4th gen GS

Oh nice! I considered those wheels. A seller on eBay had a brand new set for real cheap. Almost bought them. There are a few members here who have those wheels, there's a thread out there with pics. Can't wait to see your car with the new wheels and lip.

I considered those wheels too but went with 2016 GS250 F-sport wheels instead.

I still have the pictures from previous searches for the F-Sport wheels you want below.

Thanks for the scans!!!! This definitely gives me an Idea on what it will look like in the Spring... Couple months and the wheels and lip will be on
