QUOTE(808celica @ Mar 12, 2008 - 2:43 AM) [snapback]652544[/snapback] what ever happened to your front strut bar????? yours is a GT right!!?? they stopped putting the strut bar in the GT in 98 i think. not sure why exactly so mine doesn't have one. i want to get a Jspeed, C-One, or TRD strut bar soon. it's just a matter of finding one. so if anyone has one they are willing to sell me LMK. i have started a couple WTB threads without any response. --------------------  Call me a traitor!

so i went to maaco today to see how much it would cost to get my lip, splitters, and front bumper painted and they said it would cost about 350!
 does that sound kinda steep to you guys? as soon as i get my refund i think i'm going to get it done. i'll keep you posted. i'm tired of looking at them not on the car. -------------------- Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;) |

When I got my front lip, sides and rears quoted by a pretty prestige smash repairer they wanted AU$700 (US$600) (and that was with a mates' discount). I got a dodgy job done for $350 and it's now all chipping off the front.
Get a decent job done because the front lip is in a spot where it will take a bit of abuse

Thanks. like the leather cover or the plastic covers on the sides? i'm not sure the leather cover part # (mine came with it included) but the plastic covers are 64333-20160-C0 the leather cover is hella expensive. there is an auction on ebay for both a front and rear strut bar and the rear has the leather cover. just search st202 on ebay. -------------------- Call me a traitor!

the climate control cover i got off a guy on ebay for $4 (i don't think he offers them that cheap anymore though.) it's just a vinyl sticker overlay.
the front lip i got a screaming deal on. 250 shipped from a member on here. he brought it over from hongkong of his car there and but his celi here had a body kit on it already so he wasn't going to use it. -------------------- Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;) |

That lip is for ballers only. $300-600. I think he got lucky on his for like $200 for something.
