this on site (http://www.body-kitz.com/index1.html?target=d133.html) has them but IDK if they are legit or what.... plus you'd have to get them painted more money....

They list this one for 99-03. I think there's too much difference in the years and you can't select if it's a Gen 1, 1.5 or 2.
Price isn't bad and shipping is free if it's shipped to s business address. But if it wont fit................

The best kit is the one that suits you the best. A good majority have the TRD/Molly & Kaminari kit that is common on this forum. Then you got the widebody kits that only a handful have done which look hot, but keep in mind the cost your gonna be paying for it.

In other words, if you got the cash to go custom go widebody, if you want something simple go with what fits already. If your looking for something we can all laugh at, get a kit off eBay with the EVO foglights.

not everything costs ridiculous amounts of money to do.. as opposed to what most people think

making a 1 off kit is very reasonable..

first off get your hands dirty in the process
dont just pay a shop.. get involoved. the single most expensive thing that cost me on my car - MY RIMS

second the paint

yep u heard that right.. for the cost of your TRD kit i did a 1 off.. (w/o paint)

richard im sure u can speak on this.. if u didnt go with autoexplosion your cost would have been WAAAAY lower than what it was..

I would actually like to see a Solara with a kit other than the Molly/Kam as long as it looked good. <-----I guess thats the problem. Its like a breath of fesh air to see i20 and S13 with thier cars. We pretty much all have Molly/TRD/Kam kits with different color cars and different rims. The demand for modding our cars kills us. Where I live modded Solaras are few and far between. I guess thats why I love my car. I hate having the same sh!t as everyone else. GL finding something.

^ How can you tell? I doubt TurboSolara had a Kam kit. Since he is oldschool he prob had TRD/Molly.

yea i clearly knew that was a Kaminari I went on the site but I thnk it is the 'cleanest' looking kit .. not RICE! either TRD or the Kaminari + lowering adds a more aggressive look to the seemingly non aggressive Solara...

i'm mixed about it. I think the fronk clips on the trd kit looks good but i would want different side skirts and a more complete looking rear bumper to make the car look so high in the back. But i would never change the front bumper on my car. Its cool looking to me.
