It looks like it only has the front lip as opposed to a full body kit?

I like the side markers. What kind of front lip is that?

^^^^^^^^^^^LX Mode obviously.

I actually like the wheels, but I liked spoked designs. Its different and that is a nicely done up 2006. It defintely gives it a bolder appearance. Nice details.

The LX mode is clean. How come they don't make the full body kit like WALD, Auto Coutre, Blitz, etc. ?

I like the spoke look on the SC, hence my Amistad type R's but these look kind of flat in shape and one dimensional. There are nicer spoke wheels

Default Just IMHO . . .

I don't know about you guys, but the black interior is my least favorite interior for the SC430 so far with the exception of the red of the special editions

Not that I don't like the White/black combination(my G35 coupe), but when I sit inside a SC430 with the black interior, it just doesn't please my senses as much as the other interiors. I like the color contrasts inside the cabin more with the ecru, saddle & camel.

Default 06 sc430

Since TOM's wont make a front bumper assy , and there lip belong's on a AMC Pacer or Gremlin

I ordered the LUX-MODE lip spoiler since it was the only one really made to fit the 2006 SC .

Per: Louis at Carson Toyota , I got a awesome price so I went ahead and with the TOM"s CF Hood anyways, Maybe down the road the will make the complete bumper assy.

I have talked to several U.S. O.E.M. Urethane bumper mfg's and the said I could take a 06 SC430 Bumper and the TOM"s bumper assy , there would be a tooling charge and I would have to buy about 250 units ? 250 units X 185.00 EST. ?

I would do this if I had more committed sales from Sc owners

Urethane over the TOM's fibergalss is much lighter , flexiable , less chip resistant .

This would have been alot easier with a 2005 SC430.....

I plan on going back to Japan this summer with my fourteen year old son , Maybe I will pick up a 2006 Pearl white with Plamentio Red Int. with Right drive .

I can bring it in thru a importer in Portand , My first car was a right have drive 1977 Capri II with a 3.0 liter speed it had fuel injection and really boogied for it's day
