I believe that the RS 1.0 TRD front lip. Can probably get it from the dealer after the car is released.

You will have quite a time searching for a dealer that will sell one without a VIN. Its like the monogram, limited edition larts are not available to general public and Toyota usually locks it down pretty good.

Toyota can suck a nut.
Ooooo, I have a part people are willing to pay me money for to have and I am capable of making them easily, thus making profit on every one sold.... Ehhh no thanks. Wtf.

Their rarity makes them more special for those who have them. It's similar to the reason Lexus didn't make more LFAs. Exclusivity is part of what the customers who are buying a limited edition are paying for.

Ah no...no one bought the LFA. They made as many as people bought with in a certain time frame, but they lost on each one made. Of course they wouldn't keep in production.

Honda does it too with special edition motorcycles. We used to comb junkyards to find crashed "graffiti edition" cbr600rrs so we could use the VIN to get special edition parts from honda. I also did the same for the first RS scion tc's badgeless grill.

It's not quite the same as the current TRD front "lip". The JDM TRD kit goes up around the grill opening as well, this is just the lower part (and more desirable for that IMO).

I'm sure you will be able to get it from Carson Toyota or Nigel-JDM. Just order the Nur spec front lip. It's essentially the same thing.

I remember those headlights were order with vin only and that did not workout so well. I'm sure you can get the lip a few months after release. Might be prepainted yellow though!

NOPE. Toyota's policy on this hasn't changed. You need proper documentation to purchase a Release Series 1.0 part.
When I went to my local dealer to inquire about buying replacements for the limited edition parts they said I would have to provide my registration and ID. Sorry man, but as I've stated in a different thread. I'm glad they're strict about this. Because it doesn't make the car I purchased truly limited edition if anyone can just walk in and buy the same s*** from it. |
