Cheers

thanks guys :D

Hey Moj,

Are you looking to upgrade to, or buy the kit?

Mojo · January 9, 2003

GRiM,

I keep seeing the front lip on peoples pictures on here and I keep thinking how much more agressive it seems to make it look, so I've been thinking about getting the lip and sports grill for a little while now. I was just curious what the rest of the kit looked like and I've always prefered the 18" rims :D

If / when I do start buying the bits I was going to try this going gold business, cos I figured I might save myself a bit of cash along the way ;)

Why do you ask?

Mojo

Mojo, you do know that kit isn't the same as the TRD lip that you may have seen on cars. The TTE kit is a whole new bumber with intergrated grill.

I ask because as ricky says, if you're gonna start buying the bits, then consider all the options open to you.

e.g.

The TTE front bumber is more expensive that the TRD front skirt.

See these piccys

TTE complete front bumper (replaces the existing front bumber)

TRD Front Skirt only (Fits onto your existing front bumper)

TTE Rear Skirt (Fits onto your existing rear bumper)

TRD Rear Skirt (Fits onto your existing rear bumper)

If you do join GOLD you'll save over £100 on the full TRD parts alone. And more off the TTE parts.

And who says you need restrict yourself just to TTE or TRD body kits.. have a quick look through the gallery, and there Many many more available elsewhere too.

If you look very closely, you can just about make out the huge parking dent in the rear bumper of FXR 1...... :P :P :P

There is even a guy stood behind the car pointing and laughing in the other pic! :D :D :D

I agree the TRD kit normally looks better, that car is a bad example though.

The cheek of it honestly..... and coming from a Merc owner too....

cheers guys

it's the TTE front bumper I like most I think and the sports front grill.

Where's the best (cheapest) place to get them then?

If it's a complete bumper replacement does that cut down on the fitting time? Seeing as I won't have to wait for the glue to bond.

[Mojo suddenly has a rude awakening that he's mentally spending a fortune]

How much are these things anyway? :P

Mojo

ricky_is200 · January 10, 2003

Mojo, as the TTE bumber has an integrated grille you won't need (and couldn't fit anyway) the sports mesh grill.

Mojo · January 10, 2003

oh

is the integrated grill meshy? It's hard to tell from the pictures I can find...

ricky_is200 · January 10, 2003

Yes it is, as you can see from the pictures above they look very similar, I think the TTE grill is slightly narrower.

Mojo · January 10, 2003

Ricky,

Yeah, they look very similar, I just couldn't tell if the TTE one was mesh or not.

Can you buy the sport logo badge thingy separately, so it looks like the sport grill (I like the badge :D)

ricky_is200 · January 10, 2003

I don't know - first thing I tried to do when I got mine was remove that badge, but I couldn't.

Mojo · January 10, 2003

does it look a bit cheap then or something?

I figured it would be nice to have something else that said mine was the sport model and not the SE

ricky_is200 · January 10, 2003

Mine is an SE! I just thought it would look better without it, but it certainly doesn't look cheap.

bloofire · January 10, 2003

Guys - along the same lines - who makes this front bumper or is it a modified TRD job? Coz i really, really want one!

actually - i can't get a picture to paste in here - someone tell me how to please.....!

ricky_is200 · January 10, 2003

Bloofire, using the IMG button when you reply you can add a link to the picture you want to include. Do you have a website URL for the picture?

bloofire · January 10, 2003
