It's not the ugliest I've seen but, yeah it's ricey fo sho. Would have to see it painted to match to give a full assesment. Not to my liking though from what I can see. Can't beat the TRD.

well for one, they built that kit around a solara that is still on stock suspension. its way to big looking. i can see how that went for the c-west look, but didnt quite hit it. but if you made that bottom grill opening thing a little bit taller, that would be a nice front bumper for an intercooled car.

it needs to be painted before i say anything else

I like the side skirts, but I don't really like the way the front bumper is shaped.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.

Just give me your five hundred dollars (which would save you 89.05) and I'll crap on your bumper. Oh and your side skirts too.

Stick to stock and save your money, or sell your Solara and get a Civic.

But in all honesty I think that kit makes the car look much worse than stock, which is where I am now. You'd have to pay ME that money to put that kit on my baby.

i agree with you guys as well, im not interested in it, just wanted to put it out there cause i've never seen it before. I'm still saving up to try and grab one of the last trd kits around :D . I think they make that kit for the celica (and maybe every other car) I think it has no class myself, and I feel like these days there is too much extreme crap that ruins good cars. The trd kit is classy and mild. Prior to owning my solara I had a 92 es300 with everything, it was original and thats what i was going for. It looks to me like they just threw this kit together :roll: .

Stick with the stock look and get yourself a nice TRD kit from somebody selling one on the forum.
