Although my choice of front bumper will not please everyone, I've Loved this bumper ever since I saw it for the first time last year at a local dealer. Action Package Front Bumper baby! BTW-If you have this bumper, post yer pics so I can drool awhile 'till I get mine in a few days:).

i actually like the TRD bumper a lot.. i think they should just make it the stock one... its very nicely played and not one bit overdone...

As long as you are paying to have it painted, you may as well pay a bit extra and have the corner marker holes and the plate recess shaved ;)

Damn, that looks very nice! Can't wait to get mine. Should be on by next week:). I'm switchin' over to the new Kaminari Race Wing too, so the car will look different from the Action Packaged equipped Celica's out there. Plus I have the hoodscoop to, so that will set me apart alittle more as well:D. The h4 Kit will look nice with your ride. I also noticed...I'll need to make a new Upper Grill Overlay. The Actiona Package one is much bigger!

Hey insunan: those aren't TRD... just some aftermarket one... i try the PIAA before... but is too big... this one is perfect fit.. and is cheap.....
Hey Bat... actually... i got my spoiler a week ago from Edrick @WC toyota.. and before that, i wan thinking about the Kam. wing too.. are you getting the fiberglass one or the carbon fiber one...
Blue Batmobile
04-08-2002, 09:01 PM
Which wing did you end up getting? Not sure which one I want yet. The cf one looks really nice, I may go that route, but I'd just be as happy with the all fiberglass one:).

Thanks man. Does anyone know if the Action package Bumper come with the upper and lower grill, how about the Toyota Emblem. I noticed Jesse's grill didn't have the emblem on it.

Oh i got the APR replacement.. I'm in Vancouver Canada...too many ppl in here has the TRD spoiler... they one from revtec.. even a stock car has nothing else will have the TRD one... so i choose to use something different..

Bat:
The Action Package bumper comes with both grills and the Toyota emblem. I'm very interested to see what ideas you'll come up with for that bumper.
1zzfe:
I've been looking for a set of fog lamps to go with my TRD bumper, but the TRD lamps are too pricey. I'll send you a PM about the ones you have.

The 2002 Action Package front comes with grills with HUGE holes... but they look good.

Right now, just an upper grill overlay, like what I have now on my stock bumper.

Nice pics...I see you got the WWest kit as well. Do the sideskirts sit lower than the front bumper, it's kinda hard to tell from the pics you posted. Also, is that the Revtec Front Bumper, or TRD one?

in his sig it does say TRD full kit (COPY) so i think it is a copy, just not sure wat brand bat..

The TRD bumper sits at exactly the same level as the stock bumper. It even attaches to the same points. I think the side skirts sit the same as well, its just that the bottom isn't rolled under, so it makes it look like they're closer to the ground.
Blue Batmobile
04-13-2002, 09:06 AM
I saw some pics on another site. Your right, the TRD bumper sits at about stock height. However, the WWest sides sit at tad lower. I've got the WWest lip right now, and the sides flare down a bit so as to match the side skirts height.

one question what are the fog lights on the side of ur trd front bumper? I still have those black things in them and want to take them out and put in fog lamps. Where can i get it done?
1zzfe
04-15-2002, 12:29 AM
Yes... my kit is a copy... and is from Revtec... is fits pretty good..
and the foglight is perfectly fit those 2 holes... is cheap.. only $60 cda...hoestly.. i only saw it once in the store i bought it... he told me is from china.. haha... anyways..just look for someone that is 4' all around.. and it'll probably fit perfectly

04-15-2002, 10:04 PM
I was actually gonna go with the Revtec bumper. Definately cheaper in price...but I couldn't get myself to buy a fiberglass version:(.
Bat
1zzfe
04-15-2002, 11:01 PM
yeah... i was thinking abou to get something else too.. but the price of the whole kit is only about $430 us badn new... so i go with it... the fitting is really good... i would say is almost perfect... if anyone else is looking for the copy of TRD kit... get it from Rev..
