Had to check it out after reading your posts about your Megan coilovers, man your car looks great. Love the roof wing+euro riser combo. I think with lower stances the euro risers look better than the larger OEM sets.

thanks! yeah i defnintely like the subtleness of the riser and roof spoiler. it just adds a little bit of flare without being too over the top.

Hey nice Celica looks bloody good! Is that the GT4 spoiler by the way?
Posted over 10 years ago
thanks! :)
no, it's similar. It's the euro spoiler. the rise blocks for them are about half the size of the gt4 ones.

it looks nice and clean. One question where did u get that lip from?
Posted about 11 years ago
Damn that's really clean, planning to repair my rust and paint job next year...WI right next to MN..Really clean...what you running?
Posted about 11 years ago
Still lookin good! I can't get over that color, I think a set of projectors would go well with your clear set of markers and signals. Clean :)
Posted about 12 years ago
haha. thanks! i've grown to love this color. and definitely a set of projectors would make ANY 6th gen look good. :)
Posted about 12 years ago
Looking good. I've been searching around for lips or splitters and I like your lip. Looks good. Where'd you get it?
Posted over 12 years ago
I got mine from a member on here. this is a factory part. It's called a TOM's lip. pretty rare to find. although it's getting more popular in the states. ebay has them for sale but it cost quite a lot and they usually cut it in half. :(
Posted over 12 years ago
Nice Celi! I like that roof spoiler as well. I was thinking of Getting one...
Posted over 14 years ago
hey thanks! iv got a few plans for it, like taking the spoiler off and getting different fogs, then get the bit of rust it has fixed. and then see where I'll go from there. XD
Posted over 14 years ago
thnx for the welcome.... hm i don't know, its done by its previous owner. i just bought the car. the bumpers need a paint-job and a bunch of minor details needs some work. as soon i pay it off I'm going to start with the bumpers and then the seats ( drivers seat is worn out).
Posted over 14 years ago
umm.. the funny thing is.. they are actually cracked, so i used some oblique moulding tape.. and ended up making a design out of them. lol
thanks man! Love the tom's lip on your car, lucky you got one!
Posted over 14 years ago
nahh. because it's a convertible my dad's telling me to keep it stock because it will go up in value. soo no plans as far as modding goes.

Very nice Celica, I really like that color actually, I wish mine was the same, haha.

Hi Chee La! Thanks for the comment.. You have nice Front - lip and best rear lights. Peace Man
Posted about 15 years ago
Thanks for the comment & the welcome! Nice color & rear roof spoiler!
Posted about 15 years ago
Hey, does your rear roof spoiler dip in the middle? Mine does and I wasn't sure if that was normal or not. Looks nice and clean, the ride.
Posted about 15 years ago
Right now I'm in the process of repairing and repainting the Celica. Otherwise keeping it the way I have it as far as everything else goes.
Posted about 15 years ago
Thank you for your comment!! I love the color of your Celica, I have never seen such a color, at least not here in Austria.
Posted about 15 years ago
lol, I actually bought my Celica just outside of West Allis. Do you have any problems with rust or anything?
Posted over 15 years ago

Posted over 15 years ago
Waiting for some front splitters and paint, then I should be able to sand everything and paint them. Thanks for the comment.
Posted over 15 years ago
Thank you! I replaced the head unit with an 7" pop out screen DVD player, waiting on some prosport gauges since the ones i have blind me at night, and a new basic racing steering wheel in the mail.
Posted over 15 years ago

Posted about 16 years ago
i got the rear hatch mat by asking around japanese autoparts wreckers.. got it for ~$150 shipped. the floormats were specially ordered from malpaso and i paid $115 shipped. i 'heart' oem parts :)
btw, lip and skirts look great. i suggest you look into a full coilover kit for the ultimate drop..
