JDM SS-III rear splitters installed, Pics.. Options

[azian_advanced]

I just put on my JDM OEM Toyota SS-III splitters on that I had for almost a year.

The paint is a tad off-color. You can't really tell from the pics though "thank god".. I had my paint code electronically scanned and it turns out that the scanned paint on the spoiler happens to be different from the paint on the lower side of the rear bumper..

Installation was pretty straight forward but i had to scrape off the old adhesive and put in new ones using double bonding tape. Luckily I did the 'bad' side of my car first (I call it the bad side cuz all the door dings are on that side.. i'm sure everybody's got their good and bad sides.. lol) because i put the adhesives a little too close to the edge. Using some left over spray, i sprayed the exposed adhesive to hide it a little better.

Unfortunately, I came across a rusted bolt. It was the one right above the exhaust tip. Stupid bolt had to break off on me! but everything else turned out okay.

anyway, here are the pics:

after the gt-four blocks, i'll be putting on oem sides.. but i'm still waiting for the bolts i ordered for the sides.. the dealer said they had to order them from japan and it was gonna be like 3-4 weeks. this was about 2 weeks ago.

so in 2 weeks, oem sides are going on!

i still haven't found out what to do with the front yet... still thinking gt-four conversion.. that's my #1 choice right now, all i need is the $$$.
