For those looking to put an 05 grill on the 03,04 models

I just bought a red XRS grill for my car, It was $79.

Just went to put it on and i doesn't snap in at the bottom...........the early models have 3 spots for where it clips into the bumper, the 05's have 4. I still put it on as the gap it leaves is not noticeable unless you try and look for it. So in otherwords, it doesn't fit, but still looks ok.

Sounds good, any pics?

I'll try and get some this weekend. I still haven't had a chance to post pics of my sportivo springs/struts.

Cool, sounds good! How do the sportivo suspension goodies feel/drive? Do they lower the car at all?

the sportivo's are great! They lower pretty close to what hotchkis does, just a tad higher. The ride is slightly firm.........not rough, just more of what you would feel in a stock celica. The handling is amazing, handles better than hotchkis and tein s tech. At $700 it's one of the best mods I've done.

sup nate..glad u like them also...i was looking through trd japans website and theres theres a rear sway bar that is blue also if you're interested to match with the sportivos...too bad i bought the hotchkis sways already

Off the topic but, do the sportivo springs drop more than US TRD? I have US TRDs installed and looking for shocks would the the sportivos be a better choice over konis or the other ones out there?

to me the drop seems the same since i had the US TRD springs previosuly and i think it would work with the sportivos...if u get the Konis u get to adjust the stiffness..so up to you..sportivos are bit cheaper and u have to wait for months before u get it lol

can you send me a link?
