6G Celicas Forums

Haha yeah wish I didn't have to go through the dealer to get the front badge, so expensive at least it's shiny though! Well not anymore because it's plasti dipped

And I meant just remove the badges that say "Toyota Celica", not the actual Toyota logo, I like the way it looks with just the logo in the middle

Haha, thats cool..

In the meantime I've seen the I love my Celica sticker that has the Gen 7 Outline, done search and didnt find one with the 6th
So I went to create my own



Turned out pretty well
Still needs some work refining some sharp edges

Pretty sure Silly97 made a batch of those not too long ago (the I<3mycelica and third brake light vinyl s)

Yeah he did. I bought the third brake light vinyl off him and it looks awesome

So did I, waiting to get a clear lens though before I put it on

I Contacted Silly97 and there isn't any anymore, So I'll just be touching up mine..

I also prefer the cursive Celica break light


Also Timmyface has taught me some photography and Photoshop tricks
not bad for first attempt haha

Met up with a 5th gen

Got riser blocks on their way thanks to Josh
Gonna need some work on them

Oooh they're not replicas

Thing have been quiet lately, however I have 2 things to update..

Anyone who has seen my topic on the exterior thread knows I've run into some trouble with the spoiler blocks, however they are making progress and are very close to be done

I drove around spoilerless for a few days (until I saw raining coming and put original spoiler back on)

blocks are filled and primed, now I am just weatherproofing the bottom with some rubber and sealant,
fits the car no problems they just need to be mounted


Today I was just about to continue work on risers, I decided to check local Junkyard list and saw that a new celica was in! It also had sideskirts
I rushed over and surely they were there!
I started removing and once one was off..
The amount of dirt that fell out of was unbelievable!


The drivers side one was slightly bent from the rims that held the car up, however I managed to remove it and fixing it will be easy..

I got home, I was too excited and tried fitment on my car.
Help up courtesy of 2 rocks


I then washed and cleaned them


Pretty happy about them. I've been scouring yards for celica parts and as hard as it is to find a celica in a yard, sideskirts are even harder because either the car is a different trim model, the car is completely neglected and the skirts are broken/cracked all over or the junkyard doesn't care and break them when moving the car into the yard. Overall.. great purchase for $60 and another project for me to do

Also! New gear knob!

^^ that knob broke and faded in 2 days.. it was awful, learn my lesson on why not to buy cheap fake ones..

In other news..
There is a BIG update coming very very soon!

And by BIG, he means BIG!!!

Not BIG!!! enough

Can't wait for this HUGE update!

Must be an engine swap then.

haha I wish!

BIG update is here! (sorta)

I took photos while I was installing and it was getting dark so all I have for now is phone pics

I plan to go out and have a nice photoshoot sometime this week

So, A rather large package arrived at my door only after 4 days it shipped from japan

it consisted of front splitters, (however the condition of them wasn't as great as thought, no big problem, just gonna require more effort to fix them up, so they aren't going on the car for a while)

And as resistant I was to rear splitters Josh sent me them anyway lol and suggested to just 'try' them on and see how I feel.

And.. well I do like them, so they are staying


and now the BIG!! part,

PROJECTORS!!



Yup, they finally happened




So shiny
best purchase ever!
Installation was fairly straight forward and I think it enhances the cars look greatly

More photos to come later during the week
I need some rest haha

also: I got a new grille and I've hid the foglights behind the grille so the mesh in there will look more 'flush' with the bumper
