TRD kit questions

Nice and classic workaround of the front license holder. Is the plate blank or something on it, I can't tell. Nicely blends into the grill....it's there, but you don't really notice it.

Like the small door decals too! Thanks and Kudos!

Just beautiful. Nice to see a fellow whiteout SFL guy doing this. I like that Trd on the door, subtle and tasteful. what did you do for the rear?

Rear piece you need to cut into the OEM bumper as it is designed for twin pipes. If you not fitting twins pipes waste of money to install the rear kit and looks terrible with single pipe. IMO
Like your idea of the modelista rear pieces, something cheaper http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/94...yota_FR_S.html

We have a number plate bracket for the TRD kit in SA so you must be able to get one or cut as mentioned.

Good luck

Ryan, I think these would look good on your car... Compliment the Trd kit without ruining the back bumper.

Hi SpecPer,

I have the full TRD kit, currently still on stock height/wheels. Just ordered coilovers and TE37SL 18x9.5+40 as well.

At your height, do you have problems going up on ramps at the dealership lift?

Thanks in advance.

Brian, i couldn't tell you as i dont take the car to the dealerships. I have used other lifts and no problems clearing them even though its close.

here is when i had the bbs lm wheels which you can see the side and rear trd skirt.

We just did one for a guy who did not want the rear lip, but he wanted the rear bumper pant matched to the car. So we pulled the bumper and sent it out for pant with the rest of the kit. I must saw it came out nicely. if i did not have mine done with a TRD lip i would consider this way.

You got no rubbing with such wide wheels in front? Or did you need to modify the inners or fenders?

Sure looks good!

Honestly this is how I'd love my car to look the rims are a perfect match, and so is that "emblem" on the front.

That's good to know, I've also considered the nur spec rear lip since it still flows nicely..

2.) still at stock height (soon to be on TE37SL and about 2.5" lowered all around) but at stock height I havent scraped ONCE, but then again Im used to driving lowered cars since 1997.

3.) the front license plate is a part of the front lip, I dont see how it will look nice if it is cut away. you can put a vanity plate (like a TRD racing development) in its place if it bothers you. Personally I just put my front plate on, i think it looks fine.

4.) Feel free to mix and match. My theme is all TRD exterior, so I went with the full kit, together with the TRD quad tips exhaust.

5.) my car http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21800

If one of you guys dont mind, do you think you guys can get a sound clip of the trd exhaust? im really interested in the trd setup, but skeptical as to how the exhast would sound for the price. thanks in advance.
