Well if i had to choose between only the 2 kits you posted then i'd go with the wald kit hands down...the only draw back is it's a old kit,there's so many kits out for this car it's insane.

This is a sick kit that i'm really thinking about getting.


Here's some other shots of this sexy beast of a kit (IMO)

I know, Aimgain looks really nice, but costs too much.

Default radar/laser cruise

With a lip kit or a whole bumper replacement, how does it take into account with the radar cruise that's on the bottom?

The radar sits behind the grill on the LS.

01-03 UL has radar sensor on the bumper.
But yes, the parking sensors are another concern I have for full bumper replacement.

Oh okay, i would imagine that the radars would still work with the bumper replacement cause i just don't see a company lose potential customers because they're to lazy to make something like a radar be compatible with thier bumper since during the tear down/fabrication process it's staring them in thier face.

Now I have everything else ready for my LS430, but Luis just informed me the kit is in Japan instead of US! SO I got another 6 weeks to wait!
