I need a PS'd pic. I can't visualize that very well.

I don't see a problem with the upper grill, besides it will make it more of your "own" design if you change it. It seems it won't look as aggressive if the gril is opened as you have it showed. However, i'm not quite sure yet; i'd need a PS'd pic or to see the final product before I say anything else.

Still working the numbers on the kit... Keep an eye on this thread for updates.

4 people interested in the 09+ kits so far...

Thanks for your input. I'll try out a photochop and post it soon

I can't see any differences between the chopped ings+1 bumper and chopped diablo front unfortunately.

I would like to inquire about whether or not the new bumper is going to have spots for fog lights or not. I think it would be silly to make one without.

I added before/after pics above to make it clearer.

The Burnout front bumper has spots for foglights. I think it has enough space to fit two on each side actually.

Another idea for the upper grille would be to make it straight, such as with the C-ONE bumper:

c-one-grille.jpg

Or we could try something completely different and integrate this cover into the design:

grille-cover.jpg

Just throwing ideas out there... I realize some of these might not be popular, but that's what brainstorming is all about.

I'm sure everyone will have slightly or significantly different wants in this, but I'm definitely one for keeping the fogs, and although it may seem silly, I like the idea of keeping the Toyota or Netz badge on the front. Also, I like the narrower grill opening. The split spoiler looks good.

The rear looks good.

The fogs are staying. As for the badge, it may be difficult to integrate to the design, since it originally comes with the badge placeholder shaved.

Thanks for the before and after shots TK I see the slight differences now. I think they are both great improvements. Also just want to agree with CTScott on this part:

No, not at all... Everything is being built from scratch. The materials will be better. I'm just using some of my favorite pieces as a base design.

So we definately have enough demand for that rear bumper, correct? Seeing that it is leading the Poll results. So is that a definate product you guys will be making? Or does it still need 10 people to sign up on some type of GI thread or something.

So far it has the best chance of being fabbed. I would like to see if I can offer these as part of a kit with special intro pricing first. After that the pieces would be offered individually.
