So is the parachute with holes, It's not absolutely non functional, I mean it will slow you down some vs no chute but you'll still fdrom the impact of hitting the ground.
While your car may still be somewhat functional (and I also like you don't just want to hardpark it lol) I still feel like doing this is detrimental (but not my car so really doesn't affect me much tbh). I can name several reasons that slammed/stanced/hellflush is non-functional but they've all been exhaustively listed many times and I'm pretty surre you are aware of them. Also what functional car did you pull away from in canyons? a Yaris or a Aveo? |

I don't understand why so many of you are bothering posting memes and stuff here.
I mean, it's not as if he's totally ignorant to the fact that he's damaged his cars utility as a functional vehicle. I mean, the title itself informs us of this and he keeps up the theme throughout his post. He's already pointed it out; no need for ten posts reminding him of this. Otherwise, your pictures are nice. Who gives a damn if you're on replica wheels. While I wouldn't want to go too heavy over stock, I personally get mad when I see someone with crazy lightweight wheels on a scraping car. There's no point if it's not performance oriented. At that point, it's just about showing off the money you spent. Enjoy your ride. one question; What are TRD fender bezels?

@MrFisty was about to say something about lightweight wheels but then noticed the performance oriented part and was like... oh... he's right :P
Don't get me wrong, it looks ok(never been a big fan of stance) and I am aware op knows his car is less functional because of it. That being said, this is a public opinion forum and my discussion was related to his car as I was sharing my opinion |

I don't know if I'm calling it the right name, but the little fins that I have in place of the stock chrome strip (or 86 piston logo on the frs) that are in front of the mirrors on the top rear-most part of the front fenders. edit: here they are - http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/221677687528 Think I got em for like $40 used, they're always on local FRS buy/sell facebook groups. The real TRD ones are like $200 something but come paint matched IIRC Last edited by manualmotive; 03-04-2016 at 12:29 PM. |

@manualmotive Ah, that's a fender garnish, I believe!
I only asked because I thought there was some cool TRD part i didn't know about and I got pumped.
