You Can purchase the TRD 2000GT MR2 widebodykit from the TRD catalogue at Castle Hill Toyota Spare Parts. Its abit pricey though.
One point i gotta make out is,
N E V E R, buy a kit from (Business name removed). I bought a "COPY" TRD widebodykit there from (Business name removed) about 2 1/2 years ago, yet to find out that it would never fit! We tried everything to make it fit, just wouldnt. These frikn guys rort everyone who buys kits from them. I heard they "copy" the kits in Hong Kong, first they buy the "GENUINE" kit then they fibreglass on top of the "GENUINE" kit and make copies of it, Thats why they never fit!
So I ended up forking out a few grand and that went down the drain along with the kit, I complained for months to the manager about this, but never got a refund. The copy kit has been sold to another "Matt black paint MR2" in Wollongong NSW yet he has never found a way to fit it, it has gaps everywhere, ripples on each front/rear qtr, ALL 11 pieces dont fit at all!....
I ended up waiting another year of saving up, and I bought ordered myself a "GENUINE" TRD 2000GT Widebodykit and shipped it to my friends workshop in Wetherill Park. Spent roughly abit over $6k (well prices for the kit dropped from $13k to $8k AUD since 1999 when it was manaufactured). The "GENUINE" fit is
" F L A W L E S S " Smack, bang, straight in like factory. Search around, it may be cheaper now, but i doubt you'll be able to buy one under $5k, anything under this price id be suss it may be a copy.
I went through all this trouble for the love of my MR2 GT-S.
