I ordered a pair of Front TRD Extensions for my Celica. I'm thinking of having them molded on, but I donno if I should. I don't plan on having to do anything major to the car (engine etc). Plus I kindof like the molded look. Just want to know if anyone else thinks I should do this. The rest of my bodykit is molded on. So it may stick out abit much if it isn't, ya know.

I've heard stories of molded parts cracking the paint and looking crap at the join, but if your other parts are ok then yeah go for it mate.

Its kinda true...

I've had my experience with it. My front peice of my body kit right on the seems that go around the fender, not the front, are cracked on the seems. My kit however, was kinda half and half tho, because we bolted it on and then had it molded a lil bit to look like it fits better. But yeah... Because my front peice is on tight, when my car turns, it flexes and cracks the seem a lil bit...

But then again, I could be thinking of soemthing totally different... hope not, but I could just be BSing and not getting the actual point laugh.gif
