Man I like ur car, it really stands out above the rest! I like the scion brake light kinda cheesy but cool lolz. I remember asking you about the pinstripe, looks good, but it is a pain in the ___ to do the rear part of the GFX kit. I noticed you took the rear part out. My pinstripe in the back kept of comming off around the edges where that little curb is. PITA if you as me, but overall looks great.

Will attempt the rear when the weather warms up, hopefully the glue will stick better if not I will leave it white pinstripe in the front and I guess gray in the back. Toyota should have made the molding the color of the car, I wonder of you can paint those things? Hmmm....

Lol, Only 26 and some miles cuz I just recently got out of the service, so it stayed garaged for a good 2 yrs. I've put around 20,xxx miles in the past 8 months.

I am planning on taking the decals off the hood, everything else looks good to me.

I took off the red pinstripe on the back cuz it was lifting up the weather stripping in the back. But here is a pick with it on... It is doable.

No can do on the MOAR Lowww, I actually have some friends that got pulled over for having there rides lowered, mostly Honda's, the pigs took out a measuring tape and measured the distance between the bottom of the bumper and the road. Carbon Fiber hood is also "Illegal".

It doesn't happen to often, but it happens.

Did it damage the weather stripping or was it just lookni to bulky? Any tips when doing the rear? I stretch it out but it looks a bit ghetto at some turns when I stretch the vynl and it dont stick well in those turns. Is that one long strip or did you break it off and put together?

CAPICU23 The only difficult part to cover are the two bumps on the rear bumper. I had to stretch the vinyl in those 2 areas but overtime the vinyl started to fold onto it self. It wasn't noticeable from afar, but up close u could definitely tell. If u are having that much trouble, the easiest way would be to get some new weather stripping and apply the pinstripe to it while it is off of the car and then proceed to replacing the old strip with the one u just got.

Grumpy I stay in L.A.
