the end of the summer i think im going to have my car resprayed...basically the same color with a black roof...kinda like the scions...im getting rid of the silver 2 tone and just goin with a blue/black/gold scheme...i cant decide if i want to put a TRD wing on it (which loloks really good on mannys and a couple others on here cars) with a C/F center..or put blocks on my 2 post...but what i would do with the blocks is get them in C/F or wrap them myself and just paint the letter that say "GT-Four" gold...to match my rims and all the other gold nonsense that will be going on around it...what do you guys think?

depends on what kit you will want or what you already have on.
i would say gt4 blocks imo should be easier to get than the trd spoiler.

Sorry to jack your thread, but I had a question to this topic. What do ou guys think would look better on a 94 st silver with a 404 lip kit and lowered 2"s. The trd style or gt-four style?

What the?! I'm doing this exact same thing in less than a month's time hahah, good thing you live in Philly...*phew*...but yeah i'm doing gunmetal grey with black roof and cf-wrapping the centre section of my trd wing.
I did consider painting the handle part of my door handles black as well but then i decided not to anymore because for other cars--that distinguishes the base models with higher models.
Can't wait to see how your car turns out man!

x2
the rest of your body styling would determine what i would suggest. in my case i'm starting to think that even just putting on risers may be a little too extreme. i'd really like to get some of the custom risers that doggy made that weren't quite as high as the ssiii-gt4 blocks but yet higher than the euro risers.

i think im just going to do both...im going to have either stock sides off of a 96+ or TRD side skirts..with a gt-4 front end and maybe a tiny lip in the back...then i will use the GT-4 bocks....then once i save up enough money im going to get the varis arsing II rear bumper and im going to throw the TRD wing on the back with the carbon fiber center...i think that will work out best...that way i will have a good idea on how they both look with all the combinations

i'd go with the GT-four raiser blocks, looks nicer/cheaper/easier to get. Everything is better bout it.

both is looking good... TRD wing is probably more unique however I my personal opinion is raiser blocks are looking better smile.gif
