I just updated my profile with Pics of my 95 Celica, with the bullet fenders!
I paid 500.00 for her, as you can see in the first Pic thats what she looked like, no bumper, and she did have a hood, we just removed it. Both fenders were trashed, and the engine....a mess. One tail-light was distroyed. The next two are what she looks like now. I had to create something for now for the tail-lights. I plan on putting Supra tail-light in, and plan on a body kit, still deciding on it, and plan rims and a drop. Check her out, and let me know what you think. If you have any ideas let me know, I would love to hear them! |

Stock Fenders =$165.00 each (or that was the best I could find) total=$330.00 Bullet Fenders from CBB= 190.00 shipped..... I guess if I was rich I would have used stock fenders.......but Im poor! Besides, I like the bullet fenders, makes it look different from the other celicas in my area. Besides, the point of a rice car is to stand out from the rest, and thats what I want to do.

IMHO, I don't think the fenders match the contour of the car...

i agree, they dont seem to flow. But i think they will look and match much better once you get a front bumper kit and skirts

Looks nice...that's a great deal on the car.
Have you thought about filling those top vents in the fenders with welded metal and bondo so that you'd only have the lower vents? I personally think that that would look better, but all that matters is that you like them. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

Doh! I forgot that they were fiberglass and not metal, like the OEM fenders. You could still use fiberglass and bondo to fil that big vent if you wanted to. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

You wouldn't have to use too much Bondo if you did a good job with the fiberglass on the inside of the fender. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

Yeah, I'd take off the fender, remove the vent, and tape a big thin piece of cardboard to the outside of the fender, then fiberglass the inside of the fender so that it would have that curve to it. It'd still need a bit of bondo, but not an insanely huge amount of it. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
