if you haven't ordered from toyotaworld.com you should... call them up, ask for jeff. were you able to order the foglights? those have been hard to find lately. you also need some sort of new latch parts, because the stock latch won't work. i would have a pro bodyshop do the install and painting, but you don't need to.

I have the part numbers for the fog laying around somewhere...I have to dig them up...
The parts are easy to install. I did it myself in about 3 hrs. The stock latch will work, but the bulge underneath the hood that the latch catches on to...on the GT4 hood its shorter than the stock hood. So when you pop the hood, it pops, but the latch catches it. kind of hard to explain. I have figured out a fix for it and I will post pics of how I fixed it.
Installation is straight forward...but there are minor little hiccups. The radiator support on the GT4 is a little different, therefore the seal and the reatiner are only able to line up 2 bolts...I have figured out a fix for that too >

The hood bulge is an insert that goes into round hole on the hood (the one used to cool the timing belt on the GT4)
Air vents are the two pieces that fit in the two bulges toward the back of the hood..
...good luck...
