6G Celicas Forums

I still say that has to the best look for our cars by far.

My color combination in particular or in general - black top + stock color?

The white and black makes for such a strong contrast, yet it's still classy. I think it'd also work for darker colours. I thought about doing it with mine, but I think the bright red and black would be too drastic.

It looks like an angry scarab.

If you find/paint a celica in that type of color, I'm paying for the roof painting

That's much darker than the red on mine. Plus that's a Lamborghini, they're allowed to be ostentatious.

It would never work. The Celica doesn't have a tenth of the attitude exuded by the Lamborghini.

Yeah, it can kinda work(there is a guy here with a orange/black one), but the car is doesn't have the lines/panels for a complete nice cut.

So I just read through this whole forum, and I must say I love what you have done to your car its too legit. keep up the great work!

Hey, thanks.
I might have an update for you guys, since I haven't done much to the car lately.
I sold my 12" subwoofer box, but an 18" is on it's way. Then I'll start on the wall and rollcage.

You've done such great work you've made me love mods that are not my cup of tea. WELL DONE!
The car is sooooo sexyy

Btw, this is the hottest speedometer I've ever seen o_O Simple yet so clean and fresh!
I want mine like this ^^

Amazing, how did you paint the trim pieces on the inside I'm about to do mine and was wondering what kind of paint do I need to use and do I sand or not because of the chance of it not being even anymore since they're already so thin pieces?

I wet-sanded mine in warm Dawn water with either 600 or 800, can't remember exactly but probably was 800. Used primer for plastics, then proceeded with colour and clear coat of my choosing. Afterwards once dried you can wet-sand with 1,500 and 2,000 then finish with rubbing and polishing compound. Then apply a small coat of wax to protect from UV rays and install. Wasn't that hard and really changes the look of the interior. The wet-sanding with Dawn or another de-greaser is really important, have to remove the years of protectants so the primer will stick.

Oh okay thank you so much Box, I almost ****ed my **** up XD. Thanks for the advice any tips on color to do my car it's a black gt, I plan on lighting everything up to match on the outside, underglow and all that turning it into a "show car/play toy," I'm just stuck on picking a color can't do red or blue because of cops and I thought about green. I just don't know, kinda lookin' for other people's opinions atm.

I painted mine with metallic black, it's subtle and classy. There are some pictures in my project thread.

Yeah but the outside of my car and everywhere else is black haha. I guess we should probably talk about this somewhere else instead of stealing the end of this thread XD

I bought the car as is. And I believe it is factory paint.

The white? No way? I didn't know that was an option in factory, unless it's previous owner shenanigans.
