Not bad at all! But I like your old one better personally. You got that smooth classy luxury theme going on and the holes make it look a bit cheap in my opinion. But the difference is very subtle though! Your car looks amazing either way.

But the difference is very subtle though! Your car looks amazing either way. Thanks Kenny. The funny thing is that the black parts aren't actually holes. They're just recessed parts which Toyota painted black, so I could actually paint those white. The only downside about that is it just makes the lip a fatter version of what I already have, lol. Here's a very quick clone job I did to get rid of the black parts:

haha
I agree with Kenny though, I don't like the openings on the bottom, I like the old lip slightly better. But I like them both, especially if you can shave the openings.

JDM goodies FTW Thanks for the feedback guys. Always good to get other people's views/opinions before deciding on what to do. I did some thinking and I think I'm going to paint the entire lip white, so no black bits (imitation holes, lol). Kenny was right, it has quite a sophisticated/sexy front end, so the holes kind of make her look like the neighborhood whore Today: Bought and installed some TRD spark plug leads today. Also have some platinum plugs on the way as when I checked them a few weeks ago they were Denso's which are likely the original ones as the engine has only done 120,000kms. Also bought an FGK header set and spent the afternoon polishing it up (only the parts that are visible when installed). Will probably chuck it on in a couple of weeks:

Even over here there's a lot of competition for them since it's an effective upgrade to do. I should be able to help you out when the time's right though . Haha will do man Oh, I didn't realize the "holes" were actually fake, definitely paint over them! lmao...they are fake holes? lol well that changes everything...get em gone bro Sanded, heated, painted and fitted the lip today. Will post pics ASAP ^^^ That's WEAK! His aren't even the same tail lights! Fail. Hahaha nice find Kenny!! That's got to be one of the worst representations of a product on eBay, ever! ;D. I hope people don't think that's what they're purchasing otherwise they'll be bitterly disappointed, lol.
