yes its a real varis I did a test fit of the front bumper myself , no problems I asked the shop and he said there were no problems with any parts I had removed one of the rubber guards in the rear wheel well where the mud guards would go, and it turns out that the rear bumper uses those for a snug fit. I still had it , but the shop orded a new one before calling me This post has been edited by Manta5x: Oct 8, 2005 - 8:18 PM |

Looks great. I have one comment and one question. Comment: your fitment results underscores the benefits of getting the real deal. Question: what color are you going to paint it?

I have not completely made up my mind on paint color yet.
kinda thinking about "Speedway blue" offered on the new Toyota Tacoma xrunner, or repainting it to the original turquoise. The color you see is greenish after 12 years of sun fade. The shop primed the front bumper and gave it a shot of pre paint around the lights , you cant tell from the pictures but the original color is more blue. Candy Red is also floating around in my mind. |

I would say to go for either a bright red to show it off and make it really stand out or a mean looking gunmetal grey kind of color. I think both would look fanastic, but congratulations on the Varis. Thats my favorite kit right there.
