Has anyone seen this kit up close? Looks like a pretty good deal perhaps?

The real kit is made of polyurethane, not fiberglass.

The FRP one is garbage according to some members.

People will tell you that the TRD/Molly Designs/Kaminari lip kits are better in quality but quite frankly I have the originals and they still managed to break. Then again I do live in pothole city so thats your call.

Plus it's not the 7 piece kit. Missing the back piece. Not a bad price though. Try it out.

FRP=FTL I would go with the Kaminari and pay the extra for polyurethane. It's worth it!

Im still searching for a TRD kit....its tough from where I am though. Living in Toronto where my access to stuff like this is non existent. Everything has to come in from the states....and its expensive as hell.

+1 on urethane. Fibreglass is junk....IF it fits, it'll break sooner or later. Plastic is a lot more forgiving.

It's just a pic of a Solara with a real TRD kit. Sellers on eBay do the same.
