Hello:
This is what i've done so far to my solara:

19"x8.5" Stern Wheels.
D2 Coilovers suspension.
New wheel studs from H&R (rear)
1/2 inch wheel spacers from H&R (rear)
New Body kits with fresh metallic black paint.
15% window tint all around.

As many people asked me about my car's spoiler, its not aftermarket, its stock from Toyota.

Future:
roll rear fenders.
dual cat back exhaust.
1.5 font end conversion.

Let me know what u guys think :D

looks sweet man. i used to think a body kit ( that is, anything other than the trd lip kit) would like like >>I'm a douche<< on a solara.. but you sir, have proved me wrong. that looks awesome bro. Maybe ill go that way soon. it seems cheaper than buying the trd lip kit :)

Yea i really like this body kit i bought, but the only part i don't like is the front, too much useless holes, lol. so ill probably do a 1.5 front conversion.

Looks good.

Just a tip. Whenever you have a new mod to show off, you always want to post up the best pics possible. (I know, patience is a virtue.)

Daytime, interesting background without taking the focus from the car, low angle lighting behind you and shoot lowered cars from a very low angle. Makes the car look slammed.

I picked up a mini tripod for ground shots. I gave maybe $10 for it and it's a little bigger than a cell phone. Keep it in the glove compartment.

In the end, you will get responses from the group that are more worthy of the hard work and money you've invested.

Keep up the great work. I look forward to more pics.

Cool!!!
A little wash n wax wouldnt hurt either. 8)
...but all in all it looks awesome, hardly any gap in the fenders.

Did you modify the spoiler at all???
It looks raised, instead of flush with the trunk.
