I'd keep the Rev5. The veilside looks like a knockoff TRD.

Have you got any other bodykit on your car? The rev5 will go with anything stock or kitted but the Veilside will look wrong without skirts and bumpers.

Nice looking motor. Either make it spoilerless or keep the rev 5.

Rev 5 no question, anything veilside should be burned.

This is how it all starts Alan.

One minute your thinking, "yeah, those inspection panels look good".

Next thing you know you're at the body shop asking them about fitting your full veilside kit and decal set.

I had a Veilside spoiler on my 1st MR2. Although I liked it at the time, back in 2005, I wouldn't put one on my car now.

Cheers, I'm looking at getting some decent alloys for my car to replace the standard 15's thinking I'll go with 16s instead of 17's but I love those enkei rp-01 the 5 spokes look really gd. Can you get those in 16 do you know? And where from?

Apologies for the thread hijack
