Just officially signing up for the sports grill club... if you can call it a sports grill.....

I am still heavily considering colour coding the bottom grill to be Tungsten. VF-X doesnt liek the mesh, but my opinion is that the bottom grill mesh looks better than seeing through to the radiator.

I am really amazed with how the sports grill make the car looks ... most of you put this on a sportivo ... how will this look like on an ATX in burgundy colour ? :)

The sports grill ... do you need to colour coded it? or it is originally come in matt black?

Ingres used to have a sport's grill and his' is not sportivos. Look around the thread and see if you like it.

Sports grill originally comes in black, sort of matte. But the mesh can be varied, silver / black.

I thought we went through this already.. No Mesh, just get another line on it, so it has 2 instead of 1. Mesh with VIP grill doesn't go really well together.. <_< <_< Unless!! you get those mesh with smaller gap, and colour it. That'll look good.

I am slowly starting to agree. I'm going to pull off the mesh and see how it looks. I will eventually colour code the plastic. This will probably be the 10th time I am going to undo the bottom splash guard .. grrrr.

It's good on any colour, especially real dark / real bright colours. If you wanna sell it, we might have a potential buyer. You know who you are... Step up! :toast: :toast:

Very interesting indeed. I need some more thought on this but the sticcker might be heading in the right direction.

I'm not really one for adding chrome. But if the price is right I am willing to try.

Ok. Well, here is a shop of a single chrome line on the bottom grill.

I'm still unsure. But I think colour coding the bottom grill will be a bad mistake.

I am hoping to get the sport grill from Thai ... is this something that can be easily taken out and replaced? I presumed the grill comes in 1 size and fit ATX as well?

One size fits all pre-facelift. Be careful, it might be one size fits all but not all suit well. Choose wisely, the ATX doesn't look "sporty", it is a chunky family car.

You are right ... that's why I want to check if it fits first and then decide if really suitable to atx ... also considering the other one vip2.

so amazed looking at all the nice mod aurion ...

True... But there are always body-kits. I made my car to a non-sporty theme despite of it being a sportivo. Dun worry. :D

You can check the members' rides and just to remind you, there are 2 threads here in the topic of their Favourite Aurions / GOod lookin Aurions. So yea, go through that and see if any suit your taste.

Met up with VF-X few days back to pick up the new VIP2 grill, remeshed with some smaller grid mesh and also meshed the bottom grill (which took alot longer than expected to get the mesh to to perfect size), but it fits pretty good now. :D

I've set my lower grill up in a similar way, but it's a different type of mesh so it's not very obvious.

Also need to get off my **** and take some shots of my new "sports" grill as well

      How much is a Toyota hilux grinner 1990 2xd worth

      I was told jy Toyota hilux grinner 1990 2xd was rare 10 years ago. I just read in good condition they fetch around 50,000. My car is in good condition and has service history and receipts. Can anyone tell if this is true.

      2001 Toyota Camry wagon passenger side locks not working

      Had a similar issue with my 2003 Camry sedan. I'm think the mechanism might be bit stiff, so removing the door card and spraying the locking cable (the one that pushes the lock knob into the lock and unlock position on the interior door handle) with some Innox might work to loosen up the old grease and get it working again.

      2007 - floor mats

      Hi Ed, Hmm that's a tough one mate ..short of going to Toyota to get genuine and no I doubt they would laugh at you as it's a sale and money is tight right now. I am not sure if you are on Facebook or not but I have seen an advert on there for what looks like superb floor mat sets that do seem excellent quality and a wide range but like most things now they are not cheapish. My best advice is source some good quality ones and search online for someone who offers embroidery as some do tradie shirts and logos on clothing it may be worth a phone call to those sort of places as I know a local one to me does all sorts of work on many things related to embroidery or an alternative choice is the online sites like Temu... EBay etc Let us know how you get on mate good luck. KAA

      2001 Toyota Camry wagon passenger side locks not working

      Gday, I've got a 2001 Camry wagon which has been having locking issues for a while now, just started occurring out of the blue. There is no fob so we manually unlock and lock from the driver side door, however the rear and front passenger doors consistently have issues. Either when we unlock one or both doors don't unlock and must be unlocked from inside the car, or when we lock it one or both don't lock and the car beeps. To fix that, we open the door, lock it from the inside, the lift up the handle and close the door before releasing the handle. That fixes the locking issue. When testing the locks from inside the car, I can see that they partially lock and unlock, so I'm wondering if they need to be replaced entirely or if there's some other way to fix it. Cheers

      2002 Hilux Engine Replacement

      I have a 2002 Hilux that is meant to have a 5le engine but i think it was replaced with a new engine with a turbo before i bought it. Its a different engine compared to what is in the manual - eg the alternator is at the bottom not the top as per the manual. The engine is seized - tried roll starting downhill and wheels just locked up. I cant find what the engine is. Any ideas on where I would find it? Also 5LE engines are hard to find - any ideas on what else i could put in? Does a 1KZ fit?
