I have an 04 solara that is stock. I found this picture on the web, and i like a lot of the parts on it.

Does anyone know where i can get that billet grill? I've found lots but none offer the piece for the bottom gap too.

Does anyone know where i can get the "lip" that came on the SE sport near the fog lights?

The rims/wheels? And how much of a drop does this car have?

Thanks!

What else is on that car? I can't see anything else other than the front lip.

Rear is in 2 parts? Thought that was one piece.

Also as an alternative, Trenz makes the framed billet.

Holy crap, that's kind of ridiculous...

I don't suppose there are any alternatives?

Down2TheC - thanks for the link.

Sorry for the double post, but downtothec, or anyone, do you know where i can get the bottom bumper grille in that picture of the white solara? The link given is just for the top part and the bottom isn't anywhere on the website.

I've been searching high and low for it.

Thanks.

Right, naturally I'm not a complete tool who doesn't check stickies.

The only link to any website mentioned about the grilles is this one:
http://www.american-truck-auto.com/bill ... yota.shtml

Which doesn't even have a category for solaras. There is nothing.

They also list trenz's website so that makes me think that the sticky is you know, ancient. Trenz's website hasn't worked in ages.

So, the sticky provides nothing, thanks.

EDIT: i got the url from down2thec's picture and eventually got this: http://www.wooddashexperts.com/customer ... 370&page=1

This one ONLY pictures the bottom, but there is an option "w/o bumpet billet grille".

I cannot remember where the grilles came from but the wheels are SSR Vienna Courage 19" and lowered on Tein coilovers. I sold those grilles to pxlpainter about 2 years ago.

thanks for the link sparky! i'm not really sure about a hood scoop, not so sure that they'd look any good on the short hood the solara has..

LOL I was kidding about the hood scoop. I think that would really look bad on a Solara.

I only wish their were billet grilles for the 2.5 but no go. A few have said the Gen 2 grills will fit but all mfg say no they don't.

Naw they don't, you can really tell when you look at the grilles side by side (off the car). Sucks because it really is a very slight change.

Just find someone with a CNC...haha

Seriously....work up some CAD drawings and send it to a machine shop. I'm willing to bet it wouldn't cost much more than the trenz grilles.
