Little refurb project I picked up. Seller gave me an amazing deal on it. Just needs a re clear, some hardware, and for good measure I'm going to replace the old rubber gasket material on all of the mount pieces.
I'm interested to see how it will look with my trunk spoiler.

Got new hardware and bought a roll of window seal foam to replace the old rubber with. After applying the new stuff I was able to mount it up today! It's a little more aggressive than I'm used to, but I really like the look. Only thing left to do now is clear coat.

Looks pretty sick bro. Think it brings everything together, especially with the black Konig wheels.
Do you have side skirts? Hard to tell from the angle, but if you don’t, that would really finish off the aero. Also, are you still running the Tanabe? Really considering going single exit and am wondering how you’re liking it. |

Yes to the Tanabe, in my opinion it's the best single exit daily driver exhaust for the money.

That’s cool. I was looking at that one or the HKS one. Maybe the Greddy, but it’s not as cheap. Your car’s looking great though

Thanks! Yeah I considered the Greddy, but I had heard of too many people burning their bumper with it. The HKS was too muffled to my ears. It also helps that I got the Tanabe in a trade lol.

Thanks! I'm on the fence as to whether or not I'll get a wingless trunk for the wing long term or keep it as is. I'm happy for now though.

Little update:
Wing went in for sanding and clear coat last week; should be able to pick it up tomorrow. I sold the HIC roof visor as I personally felt it was a bit much with the wing/spoiler combo. I got the car a little early 8/6 day present TRD suede dash trim panel from the new TRD 86: I'm really happy with it. I love that they did away with the two piece panel design and opted for one. It really makes the interior look less cheap than it is lol.

I wish I had photos of the process, but I wasn't there for the re clear job this time. I can definitely produce after pics though!

Wing is back from the body shop!
I took the car out to the local park for a few pictures in between the constant rain we've been having. Have a look below.

Another little addition that I'm happy with:
TRD aero fins I had the carbon rep fins for a little while, but they fit horribly. I decided to pony up and buy the real parts, but it seems the carbon versions are now discontinued. I bought the fins painted D4S instead for fear that the FRP fins would be next on the chopping block. Turns out I love the way the gloss black with a hint of metallic flake looks. Shout out to Black Hawk Japan, btw. These shipped from Japan on Friday and arrived Monday.
