They do the job of dressing up the rather bland ist, which is Japan's version of the USDM Scion xD. <br /><br />Naturally, there's a replacement grille, body kit, and new wheels. The look can be further augmented with branded scuff plates, TRD Sportivo suspension parts, and a TRD muffler. Hell, TRD even offers a red engine start button. The US-market Scions have always been pushed as being very customization-friendly, and really, it's no different for the JDM cars. The available accessories do a nice job of dressing things up.<br /><br />[Source: Toyota via Carview]<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/trd-accessories-for-the-toyots-ist">TRD Accessories for the Toyota ist</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/trd-accessories-for-the-toyots-ist/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/08/trd_ist-(3)_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/trd-accessories-for-the-toyots-ist/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/08/trd_ist-(4)_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/trd-accessories-for-the-toyots-ist/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/08/trd_ist_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/trd-accessories-for-the-toyots-ist/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/08/trd_ist-(1)_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/trd-accessories-for-the-toyots-ist/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/08/trd_ist-(2)_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/08/05/its-the-trd-ist-ist-around/">It's the "TRD-ist" ist around</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Sun, 05 Aug 2007 16:06:00 EST.
