Here's a little FYI about the factory skirts if you decide to purchase them from the dealer. For each skirt they're going to run you about $180 each. That's not including the rest of the parts you need to purchase as well. For example all the fasteners, protectors, etc. In total it's going to run you about $500+. And that's not including installation also if you decide to have Toyota install them. That'll probably run you about $250-$300.

That's what it ran me up to, but luckly insurance paid for it when I took my Celi in for body work. hehe Another word of advice, make sure that if they quote you on paint/intallation make sure that they give you a "reasonable" price range that it'll cost you. Because they tend to find "more" things to charge you with after it's finished which are usually uncalled for.

Hope that helps...

Topmix in Hong Kong do a few skirt variants (in fibreglass) - oem, TRD type etc.. If you're only ordering for yourself have a word with Chris Chen - Sales@hediko.com is his email.. i think a few of you guys have bought the front and rear corner splitters from him recently.

yeah - I owe him a few mentions.. worth getting prices from him and I can vouch for the quality of the parts he gets from his suppliers. You would need to drill them to fit though.
