    lol i know right? makes me wish i waited 3 years to get some lips and put them on my car

    well they usually discontinue somthinge when there isnt a demand for it so they just sell till they run out

    the trd kits for our cars were actually made by molly designs a contracted company that made ground effect kits for cars as well as vinal car wraps and graphics. i dont know what happend exactly but they decided to stop making kits for cars in the early 2000's and so what ever was left painted or not just got wholesaled off.. when i was digging around in the toyota nation threads i learned that around 2004 is when the last ones were sold..

    seems like there are a lot more down there than up here....
    i have to hear this TRD exhaust in person. In vids and sound clips, I am not impressed at all with the sound. Are people just getting it because it says TRD on it or am I just missing something from the sound clips ? :confused:

    Welcome to the forum Mr.Corolla! I like the way the eyelids look in that picture, gives it a more aggressive look, especially on that front end.

    Yeah it just pops off. Of course if your car has manual locks mirrors and windows that makes it easier.

    looks like ur making some head way :) do u plan on making it look like an LE trim or are u keeping all the molding and trim to look like a CE or VE

    if you plan on painting the pillars black make sure u get the inside piller too like they actually are, otherwise ull see a dark green crack down the center when the doors are closed and it will look weird from the inside lol
