Check out the test fit of my front lip.

it's been sitting in my garage for almost 2 years. There is ample room behind it for a decent front mount too so I'm very excited. I'll have it on by the end of this week hopefully.

my car is lowered on B+G springs which I believe are a 1.5 inch drop. I have 17's on the car and with this front lip on I belive it still gets a good 3-4 inches of ground clearance. I want to do my suspension over before the end of this year so i'll probably have it sitting atleast an inch lower. It's going to look sick with the full kit on slammed to the ground.

Niiiiice. I like that...it's easy to mod a Supra or an MR2, but a good, clean set of mods on a gen2 Camry is an accomplishment. Keep us posted!

I think its too tall, but it would look hot with a side skirt to match. If i was putting a kit on my 90DX, i would do front and side lips and leave the back stock with the zorst.

I do have the entire kit. The front lip alone on the car doesn't look bad in person IMO. When everything goes on it'll look pretty fkn sweet. I am going to do the front lip and side skirts at the same time. The rear I need to modify to fit my exhaust. Hopefully everything will be on by december. I do need to modify the front lip as well to open it up more for the front mount I'll be putting behind it.

Mark my words "You will see this car in magazines."

I've been thinking about the magazine thing...once the body work and engine swap are finished on my V6, I'm actually decided that I'll turbo it. Just a little sucker, but enough to blow the doors off the local idiots. The 5-speed makes it pretty quick, and 6 or 7 psi would ratchet it up nicely while maintaining most of the OEM reliability. I wouldn't put skirts or kit stuff on it, but a nice 1.5" drop with 17" rims sounds reasonable... Magazine features, here we come.

Just remember, to get a car in a magazine feature, you actually have to know people at those magazines... We'll see who gets in one first. (watch for a clean 3s-gte Alltrac Camry.. hahaha)

good luck to all those who want to get in a magazine. actually, i think i have an idea, a petition for all those users who want to get a magazine. surely the mag writer/editors would listen to the users of this excellent site?

3SGTE baby. I've taken it up to an indicated 125mph so far with the digi dash in.
