Hey guys, My first time being a member of the site but have read it for awhile. I'm only 17 and not very experienced but am looking for good advice to get the Solara that I have always wanted. Any ideas where to start? :wink:

decide which gen are you going to get first and get the car.

first get the car that you want, dont let anyone else decide for u. if you want apperance get rims first, for performance go with an intake.

Alright, I got the car today. It's a 2002 but only a 4cylinder. I probably shoulda got the V6 but whatever. I've been thinking about it and I want to start with appearance. First I want a BodyKit, a really stylish one. Where in the world can I look for one? Any websites? Stores? Then I want to go with rims. My cars red, so I was thinking of going with a black rim? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hey take a look in the Gen 1-1.5 After Market section. Lots of good info there.

Welcome to the site. Before you venture too much investing into you recently acquired car (bodykit+rims), may i suggest you lurke and use the search button for a few weeks. Sometimes people are too deep into modifying their own cars to realise thats not the car see themselves driving in the long run.
