Welcome mate

Nice car, quite rare euro option bodykit you have there, i want those side skirts

Also very rare clear front indicator lenses made by Wolfie.

Loads of useful info on here in the stickies at the top of each section.

yeah the bodykit was actually made buy toyota for the guy who originally owned the car, i agree i think the skirts are the best part, but catch oin speed bumps

The front indicator lenses were also made buy toyota, and im not sure about worldwide, but they were the first ones made in the UK.

Thanks mate

Not sure who told you that, but the kit was a standard option, and those lenses were NEVER made by Toyota

I know they have TOYOTA on them, that's because they are cast by Wolfie from the original lens.

well i know that if i say something wrong on a toyota forum i will be pulled up for it, so ...

I really like the SSII (i think) spoiler mounts. that would be pretty sexy, new alloys, these ones are pretty but i want something a little different. so HID light/bulbs, whatever it is. the lips got a few scratches so im gonna get it sprayed.

Not really sure what else, any suggestions? i dont want anything, well ugly

The best mod for our cars imo is the late spec projector headlights. Pricey but oh so worth it....

£400 for a set of headlights seems a bit steep, could i not get similar results simply changing the lights?

What, the bulbs?

Not going to change the look of the car like the projectors, they take about 10 years off it's age!

but a HID kit will make the lights better in the dark.

Welcome to the site.. Car looks good. And yes projectors with HID's make the car look a lot better.. They are steep in price but well worth it IMO..
