My baby going under the knife.. Rear fenders made wider a lil too.

I opted not for my bodyguy to cut holes for the headlamp washer, makes it cleaner IMO.

Very nice, man.
I would disconnect the headlamp washer to get a cleaner look, too.
I've almost never used it.

Who is going to complete it first? you or bt430?

He'll win!! The weather's going to turn soon here on the east coast. My car is a daily driver so I'm thinking about waiting until spring.

I was leaving the washers out too. How's the kit fit? Did you mod the rear fenders for a fit issue or more room for those big a** wheels of yours?

Hi bt430,

Yeah, I mainly modded my rear fenders so later on I can put 285's instead of 275's on it. Do you have any pics of your wheels/brake setup? Cant wait to see yours when its completed !

Hi there guys, I was wondering if you guys could help me out. I want this full body kit by T's Project. I went to the site, but everything is in either Chinese or Japanese.

I am in Canada, I was wondering if you guys could send me the prices and also how I could get this kit to my shores.

Much appreciated, thanks guys!

T's project? I don't know if CL vendors carry their products.

They don't carry the kit in stock. Do you know where I could just find the front and back then? I was thinking of maybe just using wald or tom sides instead.

Also anybody with the kit know how the fit is?

I think this JP kit is the best for those who worry about scraping since it still gives you pretty good ground clearance.



This car resembles my 4x4 Tacoma...I guess the 4x4 look comes from the wheels. Most other kits are so nice.

You might find some CL vendors that have Wald kits in stock.
For the rest of kits, good luck!

If I were brave enough to have a set of Wald kits for sc430 in stock, I wouldn't sell you only the sides.
Since you can only do a special order most likely, I suggest you get the aero kits you really want.

If you want to get them fast from Japan, just pay the express shipping fee.
Like they say, you have to pay to play.

That is what will happen if you buy big wheels but refuse to drop your car.
