New Lip kit!

Greetings ScionLife members!

We are GRIP Tuning. We make body kits/lip kits for various vehicles, foreign and domestic. Our products are designed AND manufactured in the United States, not China, etc...

We have a new 8-piece lip kit for the tC! It can be purchased as a full kit, or as individual pieces! The kit contains a 2 piece front, 2 side skirts, a 3 piece rear, and a decklid spoiler! The kit is made from thermoformed ABS, and attaches using durable 2 sided 3M tape, and mechanical fastners!

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Thanks!! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion :-)

It's actually a decent kit for the price ($499.00 for the full 8-piece kit)

Wow and the price for it is really reasonable. I would need to see a pic of it painted on the car.

Agreed! I don't have a pic of one paint matched unfortunately. It would look much better the same color as the car :-). The spoiler by its self is only $100.00

You guys think that kit is ugly? I kinda like the look of it because its different. It's not the best looking kit out there but its not bad at all. It does look like it needs some work on the overall kit though.

Just a suggestion GRIPTuning guys......make the rear ground effect a 1 piece. It looks like it doesn't match up as a 3 piece. Maybe make the front ground effects to curl more into the recessed fog light area. The kit does have some potential. Nice work!

Everyone has their own opinion. I thought we might get more polite responses than just "ugly" especially making something for the tC and supporting this site.

But that being said, it's not going to be for everyone. All the pieces are available individually, you don't have to get everything either. It's made in the US, and very affordable, which is a plus in this economic climate (IMO).

Thanks guy/gals!

I would only get the side skirts very subtle and makes the car look a little lower than stock. Not feeling the front or the back... sry

i like the side skirts and even the spoiler looks good!

the rear is ok, i guess

but honestly the front has to go, the caps just dont fit, i think it you made it a one piece with something to go in the middle it could work, an acctual lip! there is too much of a gap in between!

the front kills the whole kit. the rear and sides are ok. just the front throws it off. there's too much of a gap in between.

front is horrendous, the sides and rear are decent but nothing different. Spoiler could look good molded.

i like the kit, it looks nice. the side skirts, the spoiler and the rear sections are very nice the only part i dont really like is the front, a full front lip would've made alot stronger.
