Topic can be closed, found one on ebay. Originates from Japan and is already in my garage waiting to be renewed.

Yes I do, and after some asking around they are called "Plate Nuts". Many hardware stores have them, I just have to find the right diameter now.

Big chance that nobody can help me but, here goes:

I am looking for the part numbers of the metal clips which are connecting the rear Glanza bumper lip to the rear bumper.

I already found the part numbers of the plastic screws and the metal screws, but I also want the other clips and other parts to be fresh and new...

Any ideas?

If by some accident, I placed this in the wrong forum part. Please let me know!

Thanks for the welcome! Where would I put my build then? In the EP91 or the EP91 Glanza section? 🙄

Hi Jerry Peeren,

If you still need some assistance, there is a Dutch company who could help you perhaps.

In The Netherlands, there are a few companies who can do this. When you send your lights, they will modify them and send them back.

That's how mine were converted. Works perfectly.

I am looking for an original TRD front strut bar/brace (whichever it is called) which is mounted on the top of the shock mounts.

The image enclosed is not mine, but since they are rare, I cannot make one myself.

The paint does not have to be good, I will have it resprayed into the colour of my car anyway.

I however do care about the state of the mounting parts. I want them to be in decent shape or tips on how to refurbish them to pristine condition.

I also know they do not come cheap, I know the go for over €150.- easily (to say carefully of course) so tempt me with offers.

Shipping fees I will gladly pay as well of course. Just please put it in a safe enough package so nothing can get damaged such as bending or the likes.

Kind regards,

Dennis

Good evening everyone on this forum,

My name is Dennis, 38 of age, Gourmetski is my nickname, and I live in The Netherlands.

4 years ago I bought a dark green metallic '98 EP91 which I had the plan of restoring/modifying to a Glanza, later on more specific to a Glanza S outside but with the 4E-FTE engine.

The car officially is one of the most complete LHD conversions of a Starlet into a Glanza that I know of, all small details are accounted for, even under the bonnet, the rear and underneath the car.

Some of the items come from several English based stores (brakes, brackets and the likes) some from Belgium (found the S bonnet and front bumper there) and others from Japan.

Having done pretty much all there is to do, I am looking for some of the more rare parts one can try to obtain and for that specific purpose I am asking you people for help.

I will be making a few WTB posts with some of the details of the items I am looking for. Anyone 'brave' enough to help me will be much thanked!

To provide you with some image of what the car looks like, I have enclosed 1 image. If you want more, I can add some more of course ;)

Yours sincerely,

Dennis 'Gourmetski' 🖖
