Did anyone see the '01 CL-S on Weekend Mechanic?
If you have digital cable and you have the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Network, they have a show called "Weekend Mechanic" and a couple of weeks ago their weekend project was to install a body kit on a 2001 CL-S. I've never seen the kit before but it wasn't bad. Of course they totally fuXorED the whole thing up when they added a carbon fiber hood as a "finishing touch." They should have stopped at the body kit.
There aren't any really good pictures of the whole kit on the DIY Network website but these are a couple that they have:

I've still got the show on my Replay TV so if anyone has a 5XXX series Replay TV and can do Internet Video Sharing (IVS) I can send it to you.
