we have no steady aftermarket.


we sift through thosands of parts for cookie cutter cars just to find one that might fit ours.

There isnt even a decent body kit available.

Sorry but your limited to your own creativity on this car.

i had a custom exhaust bent. I think cat backs are extremely overpriced and i dont like the look of a canister muffler. I like the way magnaflows sound so i used them but im sure any name brand muffler would be ok. 400-500 dollars for a catback that doesnt even upgrage the entire exhaust just doesnt cut it when you can get your entire exhaust upgraded for cheaper.

Well if you have a 5-spd and want a shift and/or E-boot.. check this out:

Subject: RE: Shift boot for a 2006 Toyota Solara



Hello,
thank you for your interest in working with us.

The manner in which we have devised almost all of our products is that once we had a person interested in getting our boots for their car which we did not support at the time, we'd offer them to send their current, stock boots to us to use as templates. We will need to cut them and keep them, so they would not be returned.

To express our gratitude for such an effort, we do give our leather boots for free, but we require writing an installation write-up (you can find many of those on our site, it's not that much work, just a description of pictures of the steps you took to install them) and sending it to us via email along with some after-installation pictures.

We also require a fully reimbursable deposit before we send out our product to you. Unfortunately it has happened before that we never received the materials we needed and we were out on a set of boots. Therefore since about a year ago it is our policy that before the boots are put in the mail, we need a $50 deposit via PayPal which will be returned to you in full once we receive the materials we require.
This menthod has proven to work effectively for both sides and the list of our products can be proof, that this can be done. We can also give you emails of other people who have worked with us an can testify our honesty.
If you are still interested in doing this with us, please be so kind to let us know.

Thank you and have a great day,
Maciek
