Thanks for all the replies. The trd side skirts dont fit 100% like they would on a hardtop solara. The convertible from factory comes with a mini side skirt which has to be removed for the trd one. Anyways, the front of the trd side skirts sit a little lower then the rear because there is some extra metal on the body. It was no big deal though, i believe the body shop just make some new screw holes.
The only performance upgrade is the intake but that doesnt do much. I dont feel its worth the money to make it faster because it is a convertible and i have the system in the trunk which weighs a ton and slows me done anyways. Its hard to make a car look nice and go fast cause when your going fast you tend to mess up the car(bend rims, scratch kits, etc). I would love to throw a supercharger and an exhaust but then that will start a whole new domino effect just like the sound system did. Supercharger, exhaust, y pipe, headers, safc, pulleys, etc.; by the end there goes another 5-10 grand..lol
