Default TTE no longer exporting

Hey guys just thought i'd give everyone a heads up that TTE (Toyota Team Europe) is no longer exporting their parts. I've had a TTE Rear lip spoiler on order from Carson since October and gave em a call to check on its progress today and the gentleman there let me know that 2 days ago TTE sent them an e-mail saying they were no longer exporting their parts. So everyone who has a TTE lip, grill, spoiler, etc, they just got even rarer. Glad i got mine my front lip at least . BTW Carson only has 4 front lips left in stock! I'd jump on them ASAP if you're in the market.

I'm in need of a trunk spoiler... hope it's not the m3 style that is ending... I'm planning on that sometimes in the future. Good thing I got my lip.

Hmm, maybe I'll hold onto my TTE quad exhausts since it'll be a rare piece. Thanks for the heads up.
