I like the boxes and think they'll look nice once they are installed.

Is it true that you need to cut out part of the stock rear bumper in order to install the TRD diffuser? I've been looking at a set but I'm not sure if I want to cut into the stock parts.

That's positive...no going back unless ordering new rear bumper

Bummer. Well I guess I'll have to decide how much I want the kit. Looking forward to seeing some installed photos!

Just put the kit on and have some updated pics, however, side skirts were damaged during shipping, will be filing a claim to shipping company tomorrow hopefully can get my money back. If not I will be possible of selling them dirt cheap.

Here are some updated pics.







Here are the damaged side skirts, one of them has slight damage, only paint crack and bent slightly, the other one are cracked.

Awesome man. Looks great! Is that the TRD spoiler too? I'm looking to order the TRD spoiler and front lip, and then side skirts after that. More pictures when you have time will be great.

Yeah I hate it as well...everything is done except the side skirts. Hopefully I can claim back some money, checked with bodyshop claimed its fixable using plastic welding method but need to be repainted for sure, so if anyone looking for cheap TRD side skirts can msg me.
