Cool Xmas Gift Ideas for a TS ?

Hey, just thought I started a thread to see what great ideas are there for a "little" TLC for our TS's.

You know, don't go postal on me and tell me about a $10,000 supercharger kit (although I wish) Something in the $150 "gift" range?

I was thinking NST SSK or the like?

What good bang for the buck can we come up with? Can be cosmetic, some people think is how good you look not how fast you go, you know..

TC

Yeah!!!!! All great ideas!!

I've been thinking about the rear wheel spacers but I have 235/40/17's and do not think I have the clearance.... it would improve the rear stance a lot

The carbon fiber wrap sounds like a good addition to the Aluminum parts on the dash the TS has, but I don't know how hard it is to apply to the two vertical pieces between the radio. I just don't think it's an easy job around the corners... I've seen the threads and read the instructions but....

But I've been thinking about that Hello Kitty exhaust tip YarisSedan mentioned...

The shirts and caps definitely help with the ladies

And if you want bonus points, you buy a small shirt or cap for her too
Trust me, I've seen it work!


And for anyone who may be looking for extra savings on ALL NST products this holiday season...

Good luck and have fun with all your projects everyone!

Hey Mike!!! finally got my In Cabin SSK you sent plus the C clips that were missing previously.... tra la la la la la la la !!

Wow!! What a difference on the feel and throw from stock!!! It is so much better than stock that I am anxious every day just to throw some gears on my TS!! Amazing! Excellent Product!

My only wish woud be that the ICSSK piece I received was a bit easier to install... I had to resort to some more drilling and hammering to get the piece to go in deep enough for the 2 hex screws to grab the ball and stay in place.... probably just my piece...
