i wish i had known at the time when i bought it that the quality was doo doo. the kit uses none of the stock mounting points. i wish now i had just gotten the add on factory lip kit.

thanks adrien. but its not really my birthday. i entered a fake b-day. hey where'd u get those pics, did u take em? ugh the fitment sux on my kit. i am hoping to fix it tho. it's prably because the body shop that installed it didn't use the stock bumper mounting brackets because the kit is twice as thick as the stock one where it clips on at. they jus shot a couple of screws through the front and back fenders. what idiots. i hope it will look better when im done.

all body kits for all cars take lots of time for fitment, they will never fit as snug as oem without customs mounts, brackets, mounting points, etc... ive had 3 body kited cars in the past... for the scion... keeping it oem except lips, much cleaner and fresh in my opinion

agree... i like either the stock look or the oem ground effects the best imo.

still love your car though K.

i like the widebody version of this kit better for the TC. The only thing im not feelin about both versions is the dual exhaust openings. Im not plannin on gettin dual exhausts and having one in the space while the other is empty looks funny. plus the widebody versions front bumper looks better too with smaller vents.

I agree. Go with a company that holds some weight, plenty of places will take your money and leave you high and dry. Take your time and know the background of a company before you spend more than $100 online.
