its been a year since i first got my solara. 1 year ago my dad picked it up at the local auto auction for 12,100. when i first got it i really didnt like it. i never really had liked solaras. so i got online when i got it and looked up some specs. it made a whopping 200hp and ran a 7.2 to 60 which was faster than anything i had looked at getting for my first car. after tht i knew there must be some aftermarket parts for it.. so i searched and found u all. and now here i am. i thank u all so much for guiding my mods and being so supportive.

heres some pics to show u how my car looked back then and now wat it looks like. enjoy

the day i got it

Image

after my first mods: rims and tint

Image

then i did my grille up and got my greddy cat-back + debadged it

Image
Image

then lil stuff like clears and silverstars + fogs and i also did my system up w/ xm, headunit, and sub + amp. i also dropped in the K&N.

and finally i did interior neons and trd badges

Looks like you're on the right track. Have you thought about lowering it yet, it make a huge difference in the way the car handles and looks. In my opinion, it's the best money you can spend.

How about getting the TRD Aero kit? That makes a bigger look change than lowering it.

I like where you mounted that amp. I just snapped three bolts that held mine to the side wall in the trunk. Not sure what really caused it but I took a turn rather fast and my system popped my fuse in the rear. Stopped and looked and the screws were still in the metal but they were broken off.
