Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Corolla E12 Kit - Too cheap to be true..?

Hey all. I'm looking at adding some higher spec trimmings onto my e12 Corolla. I've found this ad on Donedeal. Despite being advertised as a TRD kit (:rolleyes:), the skirts and spoiler seem much the same in appearance as the OEM ones I'm after. €90 for sideskirts and €100 for a spoiler seems too cheap to be true.

Hey all.

I'm looking at adding some higher spec trimmings onto my e12 Corolla. I've found this ad on Donedeal. Despite being advertised as a TRD kit (:rolleyes:), the skirts and spoiler seem much the same in appearance as the OEM ones I'm after.

€90 for sideskirts and €100 for a spoiler seems too cheap to be true. Are they likely to be of poor quality and a poor fit? On one hand, I'm slightly temped and curious to see if they're any good. On the other, I know that if you buy cheap, you'll buy twice.

Should I hang on to find a Corolla that's being broken and get the parts there, or take a chance on these?

tl:dr: Side-skirts and spoiler in the link - too cheap to be true?

Replicas, more than likely.

Both poor fit and poor quality are possible. But you can't be sure until you find someone who already has (or tried) them.
