Default After Market Parts

I'm ready to do some things to my Scion finally... Can someone recommend a good site or place to order reasonable after market parts? Thanks.

I found a ton online. I guess they are all pretty much the same with the exception on prices here and there.

Well that was creative. I guess I should have clarified... a dealer that didn't mark up parts 4x's what they are worth and that will send them in one piece, not broken and damaged. All of these experts on this forum; figured it would be useful. Thanks for the links TCCCC...

I was looking at some lip kits, since they seem easier to install and need less modification. If not, just little things, like grills, fog lights, headlights. Just some minor things to make it look nice and not so much like the factory line. I found some lids for the headlights, but one sight is selling them for 54.00 and another for 19.95 and I didn't see a difference in material or style. The car has a lot of options... it would just suck to buy something and be ripped off....

Honestly i'd try doing a search on the forums and on google. There is not a one stop shop for anything, except ebay. Ebay actually has some decent quality stuff and name brand things. I mean head light eyelids are going to pretty much be the same material, but $54 might be free shipping, $19.95 might not be. Try searching on the forums, go to classifieds, etc. That's about as much of an answer as you are gonna get on this thread, sorry to tell you! Now if you have a specific product, such as 5axis lip kit, etc we might be able to help you, but there aren't any sites that sell everything you want that are going to have the best prices.

Ive been on this build for 7 years now (bought my 07 tc brand new in June 06), and I can tell you it pays to look around for the best price. Some of the bigger items (like a big brake kit) can be over $1000 difference on the price on different websites.

You can always check Craigslist to see what's for sale in your local area, but here are some of my favorite TC websites:

Dezod.com
NonStopTuning.com
TRDsparks.com
FastScions.com

Here is my major build thread, I'm happy to answer any questions or point you in the right direction on individual parts:

Thank you. ColonelSanders, that was the info I needed to get started. I actually ordered some things from TRDsparks and they have been pretty good.
