Hi all

I have a 2001 IS200 Sport with the TRD Side and Front Skirts. However I'm unable to decide whether to go for the TRD or the TTE rear skirt?

I know the TRD one stands out more while the TTE one is slightly more conservative! I know is probably down to personal taste but I'm just after opinions really!

Cheers

Gavin

P.S. Can someone post pics of cars with each of these fitted? Might help me decide!

Hi Gav,

As you have a Platinum Ice, here's a piccy of your car colour with the TTE (as used in the Lexus Styling kit), and a piccy of the TRD skirt.

Short skirts belong on girls. On a car, better looking when they're longer....

So, the TRD it is then....

If your sticking with the standard exhaust, get the TRD, as the TTE will stick out further than the exhaust...

not if you have the chrome garnish afixed

Or an HKS Exhaust

or the TRD exhaust

ahem.

But good point about the sport chrome trim Mat.

Don't you mean the bling bling exhaust trim

So TRD seems to get the most votes then!

Vote TTE

Chris, just out of interest, why do you prefer the TTE?

I think the TRD skirt looks too plain theres no real shape to it, its just a straight piece of plastic.

Err.. polyurethane, there Chris.

For info, I've only ever seen one other car in N.Ireland that has the TRD rear skirt, and I know of only one other N.Ireland member (shieldnj) that has the TRD too. (And I ain't seen that yet..)

So the TRD is less common (as muck) as the TTE...

At least here in N.Ireland.

If you have the TRD kit installed, i think you should get the TRD skirt otherwise TTE would be my preference...
