Default Trd lip + MVtuning eyelids fitment test

Simply for those who were thinking of doing the same.

I actually went with a knock-off TRD by the way

Excuse my mad taping skills

3M tape for the eyelids is just fine. I prepped the headlights with soap and water and then rubbing alcohol. No problems.
The splitters are held on with 3M tape and screws.

Thanks, I think you need to paint them to match the body. It just looks so much better. I had the same thoughts as you at 1st, but I'm so glad I got them painted.
