135i stock is pretty good. don't chip it from beginning, esp in fall/winter with wet roads, it's unnecessary.

Wow blast from the past... Havent seen many mint eagle talons locally for a loooong time.
I remember wanting to purchase one back in 1997/1998 but was pricey.

My fav. would be a 2gen white talon or counterpart mitsubishi eclipse but we never had local mitsubishi dealerships yet, until years later and now theres evos and 3gen eclipse.

There's still a community of well kept DSMs kicking around, but most are pretty butchered or neglected. No one really cares about the 3G and 4G Eclipses, they're really nothing like the 1 and 2Gs. The first 2 generations were enthusiasts cars, while the next generations only had the name in common.

I wish there was something contemporary like the old DSMs, but the closest thing is probably the Evo, STI, Toyobaru.

The 98 in the photos is my friend's ESi, the 95 TSi AWD is mine.

Don't do it! Stock is best!

^ agreed, those pics of the trd lip and front bumper look hideous.

How it looks > TRD Lip > TRD bumper

jtrinh 09-11-2012 07:44 PM

I'm not sure what lip in that first photo is, but this is the TRD lip. Only replicas can be found now.

This forum member has a full TRD lip kit as well.

Second photo is of the L-tuned bumper. It was an option from the factory.

Isn't L-Tuned basically an in-house brand of Carson Toyota?

I believe L-tuned was developed between Lexus and TRD together? Parts were dealer installed and backed by TRD warranty. Carson Toyota continued production for some parts after L-tuned was discontinued and they're sold as 'Carson Tuned' lol.
