Ordering Parts

So I decided im going to start ordering parts in about 2 or 3 weeks. These are the parts im planning on getting or projects i'll be doing.

TRD Air filter
TRD oil cap
Black 16" Knights 7 spoke chrome lip
Custom 2" 1/4 Exhaust
Smoked Tail lights
Painted Calipurs and drums

I just wanted to know what some of your opinions were for these. Would definitely appreciate advice as well.

+1.

If anything, I'd have the drum brakes replaced with disc then paint it.

I wouldn't paint teh calipurs nor the drums..... unless you want to draw people to the fact that your brakes are stock.

I like all the other mods though. What do the rims look like?

Yeah those are them. Thanks for the advice guys. As far as the brake covers go, i'd never buy those. The calipurs I would only do because it gives a little extra color to the bottom of the car. Drums I will hold off if thats what you guys think. Im pretty excited to get these parts. I already installed my S Spoiler, so there isnt much left.

I've been toying with painting my calipers too as I love the look on my MR2. I would do red just like my MR2.

I also wanted to say thanks for your advice aswell guys. I'd really like to get some kind of lip for the front but i feel like the rest of the car wont look as low if I do that. Does that matter as much? What if it was the stock S style front lip?
