Default Has anyone else seen this?

I was on Instagram today and I was looking through a JDM page and this popped up. I've never seen this before. Has anyone else seen this? Just curious, It stooped me for a second

I've seen a japanese website that sells the conversion kit but can't remember what it was called. I think its a ls400 to 460 conversion though.

yes it's been seen and yes it's been discussed (search for conversion in this forum, i'll find it eventually).

Only company i know that still may make them is Duce japan.

very expensive, VERY VERY expensive, and doesnt work right with 1/2 LS' imho, throws of the original lines since the later cars are so much rounder.

From an execution aspect, that is some work. From a design and maintaining the flow, doesn't do it for me either. I do like the larger grill but that is about it. This might work better on a 430 or 3-4GS. (Removing the spindle "Predator" mouth work )
