Question about OEM gound effect kit - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

LRBtrooper · 04-03-2007, 09:31 PM

Well, I just got my kit today and haven't installed it yet. I think I was told or I read somewhere that there were no drilling or gluing invovled. I asked the dearler(or the Parts department dude) if it was gonna be hard to install and he told me that it shouldn't be and all the holes should line up. When i took the driver side front and rare piece to line up the holes, some areas on my car didn't even have the hole that the kit pieces had. If anyone had any experience in putting on the kit or have any pictures that helps, that would be great.

Oh, and btw, I have a 04 v6 if that's any help.

Where did you manage to get the OEM kit?

Yeah, I think all the holes should line up. Mine came with a kit installed, but I have removed the front pieces once, and then re-installed them. If I remember correctly the kit has some little bracket things on it, and the holes in the brackets should line up to holes in the black splash guard under the front bumper. My mother borrowed my camera, so if no one has posted pics by the weekend, I'll post some for you. I have a gen 5.5, but I don't think it'll be that different.

damn thats really pricey, especially considering they are only PRIMED.. paint would be at least another 200 or so, no?

i love the way the OEM GFX looks but i cant see myself paying that much, esp when the front and rear GFX are just small pieces

Geezez chroist!! $1500!? Man... like MrSo0h0o said, the factory kit is nice and clean... but GODDAMN... I wouldn't dish out that kind of money for it.

wow 1500, i paid 1000 for it and i thought that was expensive haha

thapranksta · 04-04-2007, 12:16 AM

Well........I guess that means no ground effects kit for me.

Webb26 · 04-04-2007, 12:40 AM

^that makes the two of us...and i thought the 800 price on the vizage was a bit high for me!

jorallo · 04-04-2007, 01:00 AM

damn the wonderous kit was 600 and i thought that was pricey.. omg 1500 sheesssshh

BigIke · 04-04-2007, 03:45 PM

it was a 1k option installed at the factory in my car

scamry · 04-04-2007, 04:59 PM

the kit should line up perfectly...when my oem fronts and rears came in they had little brackets that lined up perfectly with the bolts in the bumper...it is a toyota product after all...i would assume that this is the case with the side skirts too, but i don't know for sure, i couldn't get a hold of any oem sides so i'm running vizage skirts..
