After getting a lot of feed back from this thread, http://www.importatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=158552

I am probably going to go back to my stock bumper with a lip. However, the question is, should I leave it black...or should I paint it silver? Also, should I go back with the OEM head lights (black housing) with 6000k HID's or keep my current aftermarket projectors (chrome housing).

Heres a few pics of the stock bumper with the lip on it. I just placed it infront of my car :D

Let me know what you all think :goodjob:

yes, go with the oem look. Simple is better. heck I'd even look into using the OEM lip that they offer. real clean look. espicaly with a drop.

here's what you need. OEM Headlights with a set of those eye lids, then the oem bumper with the OEM ground effects lip. = good looking car.

Agreed.


As much as i love that front bumper(i picked it out and sold it to you) 2 things:

1.Your color doesn't really help the lines
2. The quick fix of the crack on the side doesnt help the way it looks.

Paint the lip go back to stock headlights and be done

I didn't think anything because of the bodykit but that hood gap at the front seems big for a Toyota product. Are all TCs like that?

Yeah I didn't think that the hood gap was like that
on all of them, but they are. Its pretty bad but I think over time
I've gotten used to it. lol
