Default Camry TRD kit Mod

Ok I've had my Camry TRD lip kit for a little while and I've finally gotten it back from paint. So I started the process of getting it on today. The rear lips went on with no problem and the side skirts took a little shaving to get it to fit just right but I got them on. I'm having problems with the front lips so any help or advice from anyone who's done this mod before (HoeBag, ect..) would be appreciated. Here's some quick pics.

i think it mite be a little harder to fit the trd kit on the 00+ front bumper, most of the guys who have the trd kit have it on the 97-99...but if can improvise somewhere, more power to u

The side skirt wasent fitting flush in the front and I had a gap between the skirt and the car. It was too much fiberglass on the corner of the skirt so I shaved it down a little so it would fit flush and line up just right. Sometimes when they make fiberglass kits some areas may be a little too thick and required a little smoothing out.

Now as for the front lip I have no clue how I'm gonna get that one done but I've got an ideal so wish me luck.

I really like the way the kit looks with the stock front 00' bumper. Is there a way to order this kit w/o having to order the front lip ? Also where can I order this kit from ?
