Well after placing my order on 12/22/06, I finally got it yesterday, 4/23/07. Got to love made-to-order parts direct from Japan... came just in time for Spring. :chuckles: But anyway, I knew the wait was going to be long going into the purchase, and Scott, the rep I dealt with, was more than helpful throughout the process. Any email I sent, was immediately answered within 24 hours (he's based in Japan as well). He kept me updated every step of the way and I honestly couldn't ask for more.
Anyway, I ordered the complete V1 Trial kit with the CF canards. I also ordered the Hyper Rev Celica mag, and two Trial decals. Everything was well packaged and the kit arrived in mint condition. Even the box it came in was mostly unscathed. On a side note, the package was shipped from Trial Japan to Intense Motorsports, and from there it was shipped to me. So kudos to them as well for inspecting everything inside first.
I highly recommend dealing with these guys if you've got the cash and the patience to play. You won't be disappointed. :)

Just want to add, Scott is an example of a good person to deal with. Fast response and very informative.
Two thumbs up for him.

Hey Joe,
I was wondering if you could do me a quick favor and measure how "tall" the kit is? Just from like top to bottom...I'm trying to see what to replace my C-One ver.2 bumper with (it's too tall, IMO) and there's very little info on how tall (or short) the Trial kit is. No biggie if you can't, but I'd appreciate it if you could!

Hey Caleb, not a problem at all buddy. I ran out to the garage real quick and measured the the Trial kit against the TRD kit for fun. Here's what I came up with:
Trial front: 16" tall
Trial sides: 6.5" tall at front, 8" at rear
Trial rear: 21" tall
TRD front: 14" tall
TRD sides: 6.5" tall at front, 8" at rear
TRD rear: 16.5"
The TRD rear measurement was taken with the stock bumper mounted to it. All measurements were taken from highest to lowest point.

Joe, you're awesome. :thumbup:
Thanks a bunch. LOL now I gotta go back and remeasure my C-One ver.2 bumper to see where it fits in at between the TRD and Trial ver.1.
Thanks again!

Not a problem Caleb. When you get a chance, post up the measurements of the C-One front. I'm curious to see how tall it really is.
