Default Pics of newly modded TCH '08

Just wanted to share some pics of my '08 TCH. Maybe I haven't searched much, but there doesn't appear to be that many people with modded TCHs. Why is that? The car is full of potentials and with some small tweaks here and there, you can turn your bland TCH into one of beauty...

Here are some pics...

New grille, 18x8 GS430 rims (225/45/18), tints (35%F/15%R) and spoiler.

I like what you did - nice job

I like the spoiler look - maybe some day I'll put one on mine

Looks good! I'd like to get some aftermarket wheels for ours one day, but that's just not a priority right now. Mind if I ask where you purchased those wheels? That's a clean not-so-blingy look and I like it.

I've toyed with the idea of adding the spoiler to mine...did you install it yourself? If so, was it difficult?

Thanks for the compliments. The wheels were purchased from a Lexus dealership in NoCal. Very reasonable price for a set of brand-new take-off 2007 GS430 rims. $580 shipped to your door. Not bad at all. And you are correct, its not blingy. Its called gun-metal chrome.

I had the dealer install it aftermarket from Toyota. And I understand it was really easy.. although they charged me $299 (parts and labor).

Can i ask what the grill's that you have shown here cost?? They do look nice! I am looking into getting a spoiler and a moonroof wind deflector as well. It may be a while but i would like to get them.

The E&G grille cost me $450 installed at the dealership where I bought the car. But you can buy it on EBAY for around $280 and do it yourself for less. As you can see, they do give the car a new look.
