I don't mind it either, but she made a comment when we were riding in the car the other day that it was hard to hold a conversation, so I figured I'd try to make it quieter. Surprisingly it makes a pretty big difference.

Where'd you pick up the 5Axis kit? I've been looking at kits since I bought my car and it's between the TRD one and the 5Axis one at this point.

I like it!
Been trying to picture that tapered pattern for mine but had only seen it on white so didn't help the old imagination much!
On the red gives me a much better idea of the finished product.

5Axis

Dealer installed when new (Longo Toyota)
I like the wing much better than the factory versions.

Yeah I really wish I could've gotten either kit installed at the dealership, but I'm assuming they'll put it on if I bring it in. I also need to find out if my Mud Flaps will be an issue for any kit, as I need them to catch all the dirt and rocks around where I live...

The wrap looks top notch too though! It highlights the curves of the car really well.

Pattern

It was the same for me just had to see for myself.
It took 2 installs on the doors to get it to look right.
Needed to keep it the same width as the fender garnish and just clear the mirror base.
With the tint and the black on the mirror it all ties in.
The hood stripe just follows the body lines to the roof recess.
Glad to hear positive feed back wasn't sure what reactions might be.
Thx

Every time I look at the body lines on the hood and roof I get more convinced to do like you did.
I will probably do the exact same only in gloss black as I like shiny!

Never though of doing the bottom like you did though but that balances it nicely so will have to think on that part some more.

Today I drove my frs to work and noticed that there was water leaking on the passenger side wich is weird because I did not use my ac this morning

Why would water leak without ac use?

Thanks

Search this topic - I'm on my phone and busy but there has definitely been a thread on this. Had to do with AC if I remember right but it still happened when the AC was off. Hose or something.

Yeah it was something about the ac drain being clogged and leaking on the floorboard but mines was leaking outside the car like if the ac was on

My passenger side is completely dry
