Ended up getting a standard grille since the last Levin grille got sold! :(

Will yellow tint the foggies by the end of the week as well as the indicators just to see how they look.

Also had thoughts of a black roof...but not sure if that will work out..

Saw your twin today in Brisbane however with different wheels. Looked like Advanti's in gun metal. Don't really dig the tinted foggies... Just doesn't look right in my opinion. Each to their own :)

Since I have the whole week off from work, I decided to repaint my strut brace.

When I first got it, it was this funny yellow colour. I then decided to just spray black over it for the mean time.

But I thought today would be a good day to strip back majority of the paint and prepare it for a new coat of paint!

A couple of days ago I got some paint stripper and applied it to the brace.

After the paint stripper did its magic, I scrapped all the crap off it getting it ready for sanding.

Sanded what I could today. Some of it wasn't coming off! Eh I don't care haha

Washed it after and then applied my first coat of primer.

After 3 coats of primer, I gave it a ruff sand and then I applied 3 coats of paint.

I thought the sportivo grille was equivalent to the levin grille.

It is. But at the wreckers he sold the last one he had...not Toyota if that's what your talking about lol.

The website you posted a while back, justjap auto parts. I checked their site and it seems they have 4 sportivo grilles in stock. But then again I don't know if their business sells only locally and cant do shipping to other states. So sad, its so hard to find these levin grilles. I just recently bought a plain grille from eastern states for 35 dollars inc shipping. I am intending on trying to put 'u' trim chrome on it to see what it looks like.

But first I'm going to cut out the vertical lines and the toyota badge area and do some diy to make a grille that is just horizontal lines.

Yeah I don't think they update there website, that's why I gave them a ring and they said there's no more :( there also on eBay as welI, so I would assume that they will post Australia wide. But man I should of brought it ages ago haha. But yeah its very hard to find them these days.

Chrome grille thing is different haven't seen that before. Give it a go man nothing wrong about trying!

On eBay as well there's those slim weather shields, there hard to find as well. I'm thinking about getting them! Have a look if you haven't already!
