Hi mate,Ihaven't got them parts yet. but it will be hinged from the bottom so it drops open.Think i borrowed the idea(ain't sure) from one of your posts as seems a good solution.

Looks awesome mate - I love the TRD look but the Border front looks much more aggressive.

Ok,everyone knows Dave as done a runner and as caused loads of grief(me included).
He had my car on nov 6 2006 and i got it back sept 07 in bad shape with loads of bits dismantled and none of the parts/bits in bags etc but atleast the car still went.
All i received was 2 front TRD wings then 2rear qtrs and boot ext which i paid £200 for even thou i should have been given them.So i have lost out on my full TRD kit plus the second kit(for the privelige of using my kit) and a respray due to him doing a bunk.
I realized it would end like this along time ago but was trying to be optimistic.bcuz of this i started collecting parts when they have arisen and i now have a full trd kit again,but obviously i am back at square one as the std is the usual to be expected from most after market parts.
All this culminates in the fact that i have got to do alot of prep work nowto get the kit up to scratch.

Anyway xxxx happens as they say so i will keep plodding on when i can and hopefully get stuff rolling.

Harry my man if you are reading this i am really sorry for not sorting pics for you but to be honest was the last thing on my mind due to this grief,hope you understand mate :oops: .

Trust me i feel sorry enough for us both,but am trying look forward.I have tried my hand at mould making and seems to be ok.so i will in the future be doing a reworked wider bodied TRD(IE like the race one) to go with my border hybrid bumper but first i just need this car doing as a STD rep :D

Yeh that looks good,but needs lowering as said.Eventually i plan at doing something like that but with more curves. The problem with trying to do a race rep is how low you have to make it, to make the wheels look right in the arch,as there is basically no side of the wings left above the tyre's in the race trd.
LOTs of thinking to do if i ever get going on that idea.
