the greddy front lip is so big it looks completely awkward mounted up by itself with no sideskirts/rear. atleast the tte flows with the body of the car.

overpriced? what do you consider expensive for a basically oem toyota urethane front lip that wont shatter? you could've gotten that thing for like $260 or some ish when it was on sale... and yeah, alot of people do have it, and a lot of people dont have the greddy, because the greddy looks way too big and awkward by itself on a gs without any other body pieces, lol. good luck.

i dont agree with you man!, its not that people dont have it becuase its big and looks ackward its the style that people like, oh and yea the tte lip would cost me over $320 shipped even if it was on sale, people have different tastes but you cant say people dont have them because it doesnt look good.
i dont care what you say lol
