Re: Induction Kit

I just left the old filter in there, chances of water getting through the pipe are slim. Don't want to run the risk.. What I have done is remove the old air filter itself and connected an induction hose to the exit into the engine bay and pointing it directly at the K&N hopeing to get a "R...

Re: Front bumper

Superred: I'm not afraid to do some DIY I love spending my time in the garage, but when it comes to electrics or welding I wouldn't know where to start. If its not too much to ask I would love the dimensions and will give it a go. Gluing makes sense..

This weekend I fitted a K&N which I love but I do have a question. What do I do with the big hole left going into the boot? Im sure this subject has been spoken about but I cant find any info.
Can anyone shine a light?

Re: Front bumper

Everything is missing lol unfortunatly the only thing holding the bumper on are the 3 bolts either side of the bumper, thats obviously why its not fitting nicely.
I will probably give Toyota a call see if they have got the part or might try the breakers Neil and Paul.
Cheers for your help guys

Re: Front bumper

It was a while back since I did the respray. I vaguely remember a plack on the inside of the bumper facing the frunk... Maybe a new one of those would help. Has anyone got one for sale?

Never had any problems except for the front bumper :( when I got my car the paint on the bumper was faded and couldn't find a mica blue bumper anywhere. So decided to paint it myself, all went well except for whe...

I have the solution!

well, following the suggestions of using a baby wipe or a KFC hand wipe (which I had neither of), I gave the wheel a good rub down with a screen-wipe last night. The amount of dirt that came of the wheel was shocking - the screen wipe started pure white and ended up pure black. This morning, I was ...
