Looks good - thinking of adding the front left & right spats/lips?

I'm a little tight on cash right now, so I gotta keep stuff to a minimum...The only thing i've got planned so far is a new CD/mp3/ipod deck...next up would be some bike mounts for the trunk rails. Anyone have any info on where to order them or possibly how make some custom ones?

Pardon my ignorance, but what are the right/left spats?

Still looks pretty brand new for an 04. Congrats and welcome aboard!

The right/left spats aka skirts aka OEM body kit.

Calgary resident here.

In the past two years we (myself and www.matrixowners.com) have done Toyota meets and cruise in the summer. I have been too busy to visit matrixowners.com, but I will try to gauge interest on that site in the next few weeks for a possible meet in July or August.

Awesome... I've never been a car enthusiast, but I love my Matrix! A meet would be cool. I've never been to one.
