Dude, give us updated pics! A few other things...

Did you go from a three-post spoiler to a two-post? Wow, I think the two-post looks much better!

Yeah, you need to drop that puppy first before any sway bars, new struts, etc. Installing the Teins yourself is very doable as long as you use the how to from Mynzeyes and the search function if you are not sure about something. Will save you $200+. Feel free to ask me questions too. It can be done without a spring compressor...you just have to point away from your body!

Nice choice on the GT-S Rims! I think they look better on our cars than the 7th Gen, but prolly b/c our cars look better anyway.

i would have posted pics last night but i didn't get it on until like 8:30 and i was cold and it was dark. i'll probably take a quick pic tomorrow of my dirty engine bay. next is either a front strut bar or teins and kybs. i'm def doing it myself if i can. not worth paying someone else a ridiculous amount of money for what i can do for free. i just can't afford the springs quite yet. and yes that is a 2 post conversion and i agree with you completely

ok fine i'll post a pic for ya

i need to get a bracket so i can install the heat shield.
my bay needs some work big time. next is a decent strut bar, headers, and valve cover paint job. and a good cleaning.

is that an alpine head unit you are putting by chance? (nice choice if it is) what kind of front lip is that?

Is the heat shield very important,,, cuz i have the gt four hood but im not really worried about hte heat shield,,,

Everything looks good so far, when are you planning on lowering it?

no it's not alpine sadly. it's a pioneer so it's still decent. the lip is a JDM Tom's option lip. very hard to come by. i got lucky when i got mine. it's not a replica either.


the heat shield will block out a lot of the hot air so i will get cooler air into the motor. atleast that is the theory behind it. it's not necessary but it is nice to have.


that's on my to do list i'm more worried about getting the body parts painted and on first. right now they are taking up a lot of space in my room

totally random but just got this for the car

ebay

anyway to get these to work with our cars?

nice!
goferris are you planning on painting you car?

i wish i could afford to paint the whole car. for now i'm just going to paint the parts that need it the most. front bumper, lip, rear splitters, blocks and spoiler. that way they just wont be taking up space in my room and will actually start getting used.

thouse keys wont work. Older toyota keys are skinnier then ours. But that old keychain is gangsta.

weird double post.

if you were to paint it,, what color would it be?

i've always been a fan of dark blue or maybe a dark gray.

really shiny gunmetal metallic =)

looks good so far!
