Wildbear's kit up!

Pop by Audio Concepts today for a quick lunch with Teddy since his Wald Sport Line body kit is going up today.

Here's the TRD emblem on the back of his car. Looks very nice! Too bad I don't have anymore space on the rear door.



He did the full works, spoiler, bonet spoiler, G square bonnet garnish, AMS front bumper grill cover, eyelids, etc, etc. Big project!



And of course, how can we miss out Sidney's fierce looking ride. Turbo charged and now with a vented fibreglass bonnet.



Oh.. not to forget the Wilwood front brake upgrade too!



Fierce ah!!

AMS chrome emblem

Direct replacement for the rear Toyota Logo on the back of the Wish.



Nice? Thought it looks a bit like the Star Trek logo.

Profile update

Did a quick shoot to update my profile with the recent changes. I know the pictures look like crap due to the horrible reflections on the chasis. What to do? HDB everyhwere!

Does my new door garnish looks ugly?

Wolfman

Was at Audio Concepts yesterday with Yeo and Justin. So I took a picture of the Wolfman's ride.

Unfortunately, a lot of cars coming in and out as it was dinner time. Not ideal and lack the critical sharpness. Will have to do a reshoot.

Door Garnish up!

Went to GP Motor to look at some GARSON DAD accessories with Yeo today. Saw this fully Garson DAD kitted Honda Stream and it was like WOW! I think Yeo will be heading the VIP way soon! Hee Hee.



Anyway, went to Audio Concepts and since I brought my door garnish, might as well fix them up. By the way, it's door garnish, NOT door protector. Serves no protection to the door in anyway. Purely ornamental and decorative.



Had these for a while (as usual), and they are original Toyota parts for Wish. However, only for Taiwan specs, covering the indent at the lower portion of the doors. Forgot to copy down the part numbers for those interested. But I doubt there will be much interest, especially at the price they are charging. Brand new for Toyota cost more than S$500. Even lobang price is slightly more than 50%. Jeez.



As you can see, putting them up is a bit tricky if you want to get the alignment right. Need two pairs of hands, a piece of string and a lot of adjustments. Obviously the guys at AC had plenty of experience with these type of application.



Up in less than 40 mins. About 20 mins on each side and in perfect alignment.



Final picture on how it looks like. Click on the picture for a 1024 pixel size image.

Now I have to find my eyelids. Where did I put it?

Wald EX Line Kit up!!

Ok. Today is the day. The Wald NFL Executive Line kit is finally going up. Had it sprayed at Yap Lee for about S$370, together with the AMS bumper garnish and Side signal marker. Called up Audio Concepts and they were free to install so I drove straight down.



Then I realise that I left the side skirt at Yap Lee. Great! Another trip back to collect it.



Front lip when up very quickly. Fit is very good. No lining.



Side skirts took a while more as I did not choose to screw it in to the chasis of the car. As per Justin's advice, I silicon it instead. In the unlikely event that it does not hold, then I will come back to screw it on.



Since I had the AMS Front bumper garnish with me, might as well fix it up.



Not too obviously in the shade and in body color. But I'm okay with subtle.



Here's another picture against a red Aerosport to get a feel of the shape.

Total cost of installation is S$100. Since the guys were accomodating and was careful with my kit, I gave them another S$50 for coffee. Everyone was happy.



And the finished product! So now, my car is officially no longer stock looking. Aye!!

By the way, even though I did not 'jio' anyone, in the end, Justin, James, Francis, KC, etc was all there, albeit at different times!

Cheers,
