Done. Needs lowered now.

Loads of clearance, no rear change s to the tyre envelope👍

Anyone know any uk suppliers of the TRD sway bar kit?

Looking good, I'd forgotten how high they stood on standard springs :ohmy: I think Craggle on here has fitted a sway bar (someone definitely has).

Caliper paint next?

More pressing needs, looks like I need brake pads!😩 But yes will black out the calipers.

Shame you got black wheels, can't see them. :blink:

I have indeed got the TRD sway bar. Ended up importing it from the States as couldn't find any UK supplier for them. I imported the Scion roof spoiler too as it's a big bigger than the UK one and improves the look no end. 

Have a look at my car thread as the sway bar, lowering springs, spoiler etc. are detailed in there.

Cheers craggle.

just ordered 30mm Lowering springs and the TRD away bar whilst they are still available. Could resist a set of switchback led indicators too.

soo tempted by the scion spoiler, but carry bikes on the back and won't work with my carrier.

so much for this being just the second car😩

Thanks gents!

Cool, I had an eBay marathon a few nights back, cancelled the scion wing the next day through guilt haha. Will be good to see the quality when the raw part turns up👌

Oh man, you should just go for it, I think it changes the look of the car completely.

Hi,  can anyone please help identify these wheels ??

Please help identify.jpg

Those are Musketier wheels, they don't have them for sale on their website. It's probably worth contacting them to see if they have them.

Got the IQ dropped by 30mm all round, and the TRD Sway bar installed, rides far better, no understeer, rides the A roads like a dream. Feels like an original mini. 

Switchbacks installed on the sidelights, xenons and 3in1 mirror DRLs

Getting better, time for a wrap and tint.

Sway bar from California Scion Dealer, Original TRD Toyota parts.

3in1 DRLs in the mirrors replace mirror mounted indicators with, puddle lamps, and DRL functionality.

Switchback LED side lamps add DRL functionality to the front indicator lamps 

will get some pics of I can.

No rubbing on the wheels at all, got lucky with the ET35 offsets.

Thanks very much. 👍🏻 Pics would be awesome 😎

Sway isn't cheap!😮 I'm sure it's worth it however.
