that foglight part concerns me, it looks good on bumpers without foglights though. I currently have fogs on my car and this might be a dealbreaker, how much did you have to grind down?

quite a bit. Like 5mm? I still need to test fit it a few more times first

Which kit is the Bayson Type-T replicating?

Sorry, I was referring to this, but it's not Bayson's:

It looks like their T-Style (TRD) parts are all on sale right now. I don't even have my FRS yet and i'm thinking about picking up the front bumper and side skirts....

What do you guys think? Price to quality ratio worth the purchase? Seems like everyone is for the most part agrees that this kit is a very valid and worthy replica for someone wanting the TRD kit.

EDIT:

Nvm, I see they are an even cheaper deal on ebay right now with free shipping... That much closer to buying... haha

Also, are you guys satisfied with the overlap over the foglight area? Anyone have solutions to that?

Even the factory kit overlaps into the fog light area some, it's part of the design. Maybe it's a hair less on the factory but a quick shave with a dremel and it would be perfect. I don't have fogs so I'm not sure what the problem is. It fits perfect with factory non fog grilles. It's basically a 1:1 copy and I had zero issues during my test fit.

I'm speaking from what I've read, not my personal exoeriebce, but the TRD is built to fit like a glove, with minimal hardware. The replica, when attached well, fits well, but with more hardware/labor. A body shop or a skilled worker can do great work with the replica.

The replica fits pretty well but when you have fog lights you just need to grind a bit to make it perfect fit. Not too much work but also remember tho that the oem trd comes painted so your body shop will need to paint 2 tone and I dont know how skilled they are or how much they will charge so consider that when you make your purchase

my test fit on the front lip was with zero screws or tape. no gap that was present would have been to much for the rubber edging to cover. i was very impressed. i did not alter the part at all before paint. i painted the color matched sections saturday. hopefully ill get the satin black done within the next few days and i can work on getting it all installed

I think the TRD kit only comes in black or white, from the factory.

Paint/install of the replica 4pc kit will likely cost about the same as the replica kit...
