miracleman89 · 11-07-2008, 04:47 AM

The more I see the TRD Wide Bodies the more I want to make mine a replica!!! God they look so good!

TOPGUN · 11-07-2008, 04:52 AM

Thinking about going for this colour combination on my new seats yes or no

TOPGUN · 11-07-2008, 04:54 AM

Her's a better pic of my replica has been featured in 3 magazines must say something about the car.

miracleman89 · 11-07-2008, 05:09 AM

Hey maybe someone could help me with this one quick little question about a wide body set up! What is a good wheel and tire size set up on a widebody? and are spacers needed?

PHOENIX · 11-07-2008, 05:17 AM

You should check out the new TRD red/black seats. They are to die for.

miracleman89 · 11-07-2008, 05:28 AM

well m8 as this one has been lowered i have gone for 17x8 wheels for the front offset +23 and 17x10 for the rears offset +12, i had the wheels especially made with these offsets to elimanate the need for spacers.Tyres are Falen 452 17x225x35 front 17x265x40 rear.

TOPGUN · 11-07-2008, 12:10 PM

Got some more pics car should have been finished this week but as per usual they got it wrong,front and rear bumpers ,doors spoiler,bootlid and engine lid still need to be resprayed,i'm going on hliday Monday and said it will be ready for when i return in 1 week.

UMjaxman · 11-07-2008, 10:12 PM

i think when you start color matching with red inserts, it starts to look a little tacky. Clean black seats with suede looks good, avoid any embroidery of words that dont already come on a product.

you other widebody is excellent, very clean and simple, not overdone

metheores · 11-07-2008, 10:36 PM

I must agree. A clean interior one color or complementing two tone. Looks great, when it matches the car in every way it just looks ricey to me. Don't take it offensively though, the seats look good, but i think they'll look better all black.

TOPGUN · 11-08-2008, 03:52 AM

Was thinking about black with red stitching or piping.
