Default Deer = mods... need some help!!

Well first off I hit a deer at about 55mph and it damaged the car pretty good, both fenders, bumper, hood, plus some obvious things under the hood, my thing is I do not want to put it back to stock.... can not go crazy I drive it daily and in the winter... but looking for some good suggestions for fenders, bumper, and hood I am thinking of going carbon fiber... the only other mod I have is some tanabe springs on order... I am either going to get my stock rims painted black or look into some 18s any ideas on hoods, bumpers or fenders is appreciated and websites to get them from thanks....

Well if you want a full on body kit the only kit i've ever cared for was the kaminari one. Otherwise - get a new stock bumper and then just go with a lip kit. Depends all on what you like of course.

But as far as body kits go - Kaminari ftw

You can get the 2008 headlights for $195 each right now...

You can get the 2005-2007 headlights for $140...

http://www.trdsparks.com/displaypart...4&parts_id=700

The difference is pretty big, so it's up to you to decide on your preferred style. You will see the difference from the pictures on the page above. The 2008 model has new headlights which use projectors. However, since you have an '05 model, you will also need to change your wiring in order to accomodate the different bulbs used in the newer headlights. It's not a big job though, because some of the members here on SL have upgraded to the newer model headlights on the older model tC.
