    Why you returning it to a daily driver? I thought you had another corolla for your daily driver.

    did you sell your kit or is this just for offseason?

    we need another 01 lip kit b/c everyone is getting that one... i am planning on having one too... ha!

    everything looks good... make sure your wheels are hyperblack or gunmetal or bronze!

    i DO have another daily driver corolla but i also want to be driving this one too, i guess you can call it bi-daily drivers. Im paying over $1500 a year for insurance and its just a waste to leave it in the garage all year long. Also i still have my other bumper i'll put that on for shows when show season starts again, and my Rays gram lights im keeping as well.

    I'm sure that 3 inches of ground clearance will handle so much better in snow. You really think that lip is more functional than the bomex front? Seems strange to me...

    I know exactly what you mean though, I've been driving this gay ass sunfire around all winter while the car I spent so much time and money on is stuck in the garage.

    i can see why youd take of the bomex front, but why take off the gramlights? i mean if its to protect them, why replace em with 16" trd wheels which are pretty expensive as far as i know, id think something more "replaceable" would be smarter

    cuz the gram lights are 17.5 x 7 with a 40 offset so i cant use them to drive it everyday, too wide. the trd's are guaranteed not to scrape.

    also its $1500 for One car

    do u guys think i should take off the decals now and go back with the stock hood instead of carbon fiber?

    damn that looks HOT!!!!

    it's funny because before i decided to go with your old "setup" (ck1 front, toms sides and rear) i was considering doing the 01 front w/lip and toms sides and rear but i wasn't sure if it'd look good or not...apparently it does!!!!

    the front lip sits a little higher than the sideskirt, but i guess that just depends how u mount the lip, i need to get my hands on some oem fog lights tho...

    I think you should leave the carbon fiber hood and the stickers doesnt really matter. To be honest I like the bomex front better but this set up looks really good too.

    Nice sig by the way prodigy

    hey thnx for the replies, i finally got my hands on some OEM 01-02 Fog Lights, im gonna put them in tonight and get some pics tomorrow, i dunno about painting them yellow tho, yellow fogs dont really match an orange car. The covers that vamp has on his fog, is that like a sticker or wut?

    yea, don't do what you don't think matches, and your gram lights are gunmetal and not broze so maybe just normal fogs would look good. but i don't really like the 'smoked' style anymore b/c lots of tacky cars around here 'smoke' everything.

    Worst case, if the fogs don't match, you can just remove the yellow tint from it. Personally, I love the way it looks on my ride.
