Nice job Pete!

Finally got around to getting these brakes and lip kit actually installed:

All stock:


Drilled & slotted rotors, EBC pads, and the ES300 caliper w/spacer installed:


(Rear) Drilled and slotted ES300 rotors, ceramic pads, and painted stock calipers:

Surprisingly the rear rotors fit with zero modification. I had backing plates and caliper brackets ready to install but didnt even need them. Apparently, they are only needed on '00+ models...


Stock vs brake conversion w/rim (19". +45):




Lip kit installed and a fresh detail:



Sorry just cell pics for now - will get some good shots with a real camera this weekend.

Turned out great!

DAMN, your car is fuccking awesome bro! Brakes/calipers, wheels, kit...everything is looking really good!

Wow, I'm impressed. Looks amazing!

Very nicely done

A+++++

Nice work

What tint is that? Looks more smokey than dark. I dig it.

I'm always a fan of Red Cars... One thing I would recommend, Paint that mesh part in the grill black.
Also, 19" fits our car very well... Anything larger will just look dumb.

That is one of the best fit of Kaminari front lips that I have seen. Looks just like a Gen 1 TRD kit.

Thanks for the compliments!


One of the side skirts and one of the rear lips were kinda warped after i got them back from the body shop. I tried using a heat gun to bend them back, but it didnt turn out the way i wanted. So i set the whole kit in the sun for a couple hours and it was waaaay easer to re-shape them. The polyurethane is much softer and flexible once its been totally heated up, so it makes "shaping" the front lips a lot easier too.
