bodykits, dont get none other than the trd kit.
made by Kaminari.

deal with Kevin from Wicked Weasel Motorsports ONLY. he is a great guy.

if you're looking for lights, you can't find like projector or anything like that unless if you go custom. just ask Astro.

try stuff like.. performancecenter.com
trdparts4u.com
and
trdsparks.com


hope it's some help and welcome to the boards.

My interests for Solara is growing so I'm trying to learn everything I can before buying parts. What is the difference between my 2003 solara and those of earlier years? I body looks identical. Im interested in purchasing some grills. Will grills made for 2001 fit on a 2003?

Again, Thanks for your help....
Thanks!

you have to know that there is 2 gen and within those gen there is 2 "version"

Gen 1 = 99-01
Gen 1.5 = 02-03

Gen 2 = 04-06
Gen 2.5 = 07-08

For difference between 1 and 1.5 you could use search function with the word fit in it.

I've got a 2000 with a 2002 conversion and there are some differences. The front end is different, which would be the bumper, headlights, corner lights, and the grille. So, you can't fit anything of that sort from the gen 1. The only thing up front for you would be the black housing headlights/corner lights on Ebay. The major problem with those is that the light output sucks really bad. But, you can buy a HID retrofit kit from krawzyazn here and it's not too bad. If you want a body kit, stick with TRD/Kaminari lip kit. Besides, I don't think anybody makes a fiberglass kit for the gen 1.5 anyways. If you want a different grille, the only option is to go custom. Either make it yourself or there might be someone here who can get someone to make it for you.

Anything else you want will work. I choose to do the conversion because I wanted a dual projector setup and it was the only way to go. If you got the money, my projectors ran me about a grand, not including the lights. :o

If you have any other questions, just ask away! :D

So anything that fits on a 2002 gen 1.5 will also fit on a 2003 model gen 1.5. Is this correct?
Thanks!
