Hey everyone,

I know I haven't updated my build in awhile but I've added a couple of things to Miyuki's rear end. One in particular I have been waiting for since the beginning of my build back in 2015.. Finally got my TRD Release Series 1.0 rear bumper lip painted and installed! Before the "NeEdS qUaD tIpS bRo!" I have the RS1.0 quad catback just waiting on new gaskets plus hardware. Also I had installed a Seibon CSL carbon fiber trunk.

absolutely in love with the rear end now and finally the rest of my TRD parts are coming together nicely.

Are you going to paint-match the new TRD bumper/rear lip?

Looks awesome, but it's pretty easy to tell in this pic that it's a different blend/shade of white...

Edit: clearly I’m blind because you did get it painted. Guessing that’s just a trick or the lighting in the picture. My bad.

Yeah it's the lighting and it being on camera. Also there is a difference between the bumper material and the lip material which will cause different shades. Also! The way light hits the different angles will also change the shade of white. It's actually a very good match, and once you see it in person you'll see what i'm talking about.

Finally installed my JDL Catless UEL header with black ceramic coating

SO! It's been almost a year now since i've updated this thread and man going through it had given some memories. There has been some new updates some good and some bad..

First off finally got a TRD Inlay decal for the RS1.0 rear bumper

Had picked up a Radium catch can for the PCV side

Here's one I was eyeing since they released the new TRD 86. I was able to source a dash from the 19 TRD 86. I think it looks so good with the rest of the exterior modifications I had made to the vehicle. Need to work on the interior some more, also you can see my red suede inserts on the door cards done by sweidit.

Also picked myself up a custom magnetic number for when I go out to the track. These were made by @Racecarnumbers on instagram, they are also known as spinnywhoosh.com. Got to finally use them at the first track day of the 2019 season and round 1 of 86drivechallenge

Now here's the bad.. I was driving home and out of nowhere a bobcat was in the middle of the freeway just chillin, sitting there, like it was ready for its death. I ended up hitting and running over the animal which had destroyed my nur-spec front lip. :cry:

Even though I had lost my Nur-Spec front lip.. I now own a Release Series 1.0 front lip that I was able to source instead of the Nur-Spec. Wanted to try something new and I think this looks just as good as the Nur-Spec and it goes great with the rest of my TRD parts!

I hope to have more news by the end of the month! :thumbup:

Did you paint the letters on the tire? or they are sticker? Please let me know where to order, they look nice.

Thanks!

This looks like a clean build, your car engine bay looks really clean.
