Looks great at night too. How easy/difficult were the taillights to put in? I'm seriously considering buying a set, since the taillights are the most dated looking styling element of the 02-04 ES.

i was really easy, for the tail light kit, it was literally plug and play, just remove the bulbs out of the sockets on the harnesses. remove the 3 nuts holding the old lens on, then put the new lens in. put the old nuts back on. then plug the empty socket into the tail lights (which have a plug looking thing that sticks out). the kit doesn't even need instructions, its that easy. once you get them, you'll see what im talking about.

Your going to have to reuse the old bulbs for the reverse and turn signals, but you can buy some white or amber l.e.d. bulbs to plug right in and then your good.

I just installed a new upper grille and bottom grille. It was actually pretty easy, i just really had to drill out the holes bigger for the mounts. the bottom grille is not a full assembly, its just little strips of some type of chromed rubber but it actually looks and feels like chrome. the upper grille is polished stainless steel

Can I ask where'd you get them from? Not planning on doing any grille mods at the moment, just curious where you found these

car looks great, where did you get the TRD badge for the grill? Also you have very pretty wife or girlfriend, you look very happy in that picture. My 04 needs paint work on the hood and bumpers. What you did gives me the motivation to start working on mine. Great job and thanks for the pics, take care and have fun with your car.
