Its hard to tell, is the lettering raised? I like it too!

Nope. Surface is smooth, lettering seems to be below the top layer

you can tell the same lady that sideswiped you that theres a line up of MKIII owners wanting to get side swiped :) i love that it looks awesome...

hehe thanks for the kind words everyone. I'm not really sure how to explain it you know? Just brought it to the shop, the ordered the moulding from toyota (about $200! eek!) and installed it for me. I asked the guy about it when i picked up the car and he just said that's how it came. idk. I guess its One of a Kind though eh!? :D :D :D

On a seperate note it was a lady that parked next to me at my apartment and she didn't speak very good english and her and her husband tried to play it off like it wasn't her. She had done it when i was in my apartment so i didn't see her do it, but we have assigned parking spots and i looked at her car and at my car and the marks matched up perfectly so I told them I can get the police involved or they can just man up and pay the repair bill. My rear bumper got a repaint at the same time so that was cool. I talk about it kind of mean but I was a nice guy about it, it just pissed me off that they were gonna try to get away with it. If i ever hit anyone's car I would leave my name and number under the windshield wiper and pay for any damage. I can't even fathom a hit and run. I would be going all vigilante on their ass. If like, a black suburban hit me and ran, the rest of my life i would be searching down that black suburban. I hope that never happens to anyone (even though it probobly will :-\ )

I always liked the pre-89 trim way more then 89+.... besides the damn tabs that rust! If they would have came plastic from the factory they would have been way better oh well.

Anyway, D TR41N I gotta see your car in person some time, you should come hang out at an autocross when the Brewers have an away game on Sunday's.

You don't know what autocrossing is? Basically they take the parking lots at Miller Park, set up cones, and race through them. A lot of people come out... it's not exactly meant for our pigs but its still really fun to watch or even race your pig. 100% legal. I live 2 minutes away.

Generally the events cost money but they don't cost too much. Auto crossing is probably one of the cheapest auto events out there.
