Looks right... I'm assuming the missing induction piping is deliberate?!
-
Wouldn't he be better off aiming for the exhaust...?
-
Ouch. That can't be cheap. But in my opinion, you shouldn't trust main dealers anyway (I've been burned before), so maybe look for a second opinion first? It's fairly easy to check yourself, anyway...
-
Wow! An extra 20BHP from just a simple plug-in mod! If only more people knew...
-
I will have one for sale shortly, I'm just not sure exactly when. My own car was dropped off this morning to have a new kit fitted and some other bits and pieces done. I can let you know when it'll be available as soon as I know, if you like? It's a pre-facelift silver bumper with the aero-lip fixed to it in the "down" (functioning) position. It will have the number-plate holder and Toyota badge on it.
-
Uh, quite... 7,500?
-
That DOES look nice, but I think it needs beefing up around the flanks with some sideskirts. The stock ones are just about perfect as they are and would look ace on your car, I reckon.
-
That is pretty damn good. Those wings are ace.
-
As for the main point of the thread... Aftermarket is the way to go, I reckon. The stock rims are just too drab and dated (unless used as an alternative set for trackdays, etc - see above!).
-
That's smart. I was thinking of getting my stock rims refurbished for an alternative set. How much were yours and who did it for you?
-
The blade is staying black and the Do-Luck front (once fitted) will have a black centre, too. Carbon bonnet to follow, cash permitting!
-
All good points. The Veilside spoiler is definitely staying on (spraying starts tomorrow...), I just wanted to see how it would look with a bare-arse!
-
Ok, so this got me thinking... I'm not the biggest fan of the de-spoilered look if I'm honest (usually because those that do it seem to not want to go all out and get those horrible rubber things to put in the bolt holes rather than getting it properly smoothed), but I decided I'd have a look and see what my car would look like in that style.
-
Yeah I know - I saw the post the day after I picked this one up! Aah, well...
-
Why? WHY? WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?
-
I'm planning on having the crease on mine taken out, actually, since you mention it. Well, depending on cost... I think you just have to be a bit creative with number plate placement! It's still the best-looking front, in my opinion.
-
That's precisely the plan! And I like the idea of doing the centre portion of the Do-Luck front in black as well - I've seen that on a few silver cars on here and at shows and that looks really smart, I reckon.
-
I know it's not everyone's cuppa, (as mentioned once or twice here!) but I love the aggressive lines. The full kit is a bit much, I have to admit, but that spoiler is just uber-chunky and mean-looking. I do like the stock one, though and am considering holding onto it so I can chop and change at will - it's only 4 bolts, after all!
-
Ok, so it looks faintly ridiculous at the moment thanks to it being the wrong colour, but here are the first pics of my newly-fitted Veilside spoiler (thanks supra_aero!). The plan is to get it sprayed properly next week at the same time as my new Do-Luck front end is getting fitted and sprayed. More pics to follow over the next couple of weeks, hopefully...
-
No. I believe that was what is referred to as a "bump."
-
Anyone...?
-
Hi!
-
Clue's in the title: if anyone has these for sale, or knows of anyone who might, please let me know!
-
I dunno. Nine out of ten for effort but only four out of ten for artistic impression...?
-
That Trial rear is v good.
