Pics of my TRD lowered Gen 5.5 with oem body kit as requested. - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Have had several request for pics of my car with the oem body kit and TRD springs installed. They are now posted in the TN gallery.

I do scrape the front lip on hard corners with bumps, unexpected dips and speed bumps and occasionally on my driveway with the family and trunk loaded up for a day out.

looks awesome!!!!

whats the tire and wheel size? offset?

greylock · 07-08-2007, 10:56 PM

The ones in the pic are 215/55x17 and I'm currently running 225/50x17. The offset on the rims are +38 and width is 7". Ended up with some rubbing problems when I switched tires. Trimmed the inner fender lip in the rear and no more rubbing..

Used a dremel with a grinding tip, masked it off and primered the spots I had to grind down.

Looks great!

I've had my car with the same body kit and TRD springs for over 1 year and have never scraped anything at all. I drive over speed bumps and go around bumpy corners frequently.

I've never seen another car with my grill.

I did get the emblem off of eBay.

looks hot. i gotta do mine.

scamry · 07-10-2007, 10:16 AM

TRD vvti - it looks just like the rs grill thats on ebay. maybe it isnt, but it sure could have fooled me. im not feeling the chrome, imo it'd look better silver, but its not my car. looks good none the less.

The RS grill doesn't come with polished stainless steel mesh. You may not like the chrome but I've added some extra chrome to the car and I really like how it looks.

You're right, it's not your car. Your car has a "TRD kit" and you're dreaming of an Apexi exhaust.

I appreciate you telling me what you don't like even though I didn't ask.

You have a nice car. I don't like how high it is. I think your wheels are ugly. Your stock grill sucks. I'm also not a fan of the tall rear spoiler.

What is a "TRD kit" exactly anyways?
