The bra is available at Toyota dealers... you should be able to get it at any dealer for around $40, or just go here:

Yup... I was considering taking the CF gas door off after looking at the pictures... so I went outside to look at it. For some reason in the pics, the door came out really dark looking. It looks better & lighter in person and matches the CF door appliques I have..... so I'll keep it on.

It has been on the Box for over two years straight and I have never had a problem with it.

I take it off when I hand wash the car.... it only takes a minute to take off and put back on. I leave it on if I go thru a carwash. Not a big pain to dry at all.

Yeah, not a good idea to leave it on during rain or washing. They can "cloud" your paint if they get wet underneath, because the water get trapped there, and it can stay moist up against the paint for long periods . As Matt said, it slips off and on in seconds anyway.

The crappy eBay carbon fiber rear spoiler's clearcoat started to get all cloudy... so I "rattle-canned" it black.... I am looking for something to replace it.













Dude, nice pics!! :D Looking good man!

Looking good. I like the stripe on there. Would think it would look even better with a 2" drop....
