Guys, Im not pulling your legs but I am working on a radical wide body kit that is being made for my convertible. I dont know if it would look good on any of the other body styles. It might be a little too wild for most of you, but I think it will transform the celica quite a bit.
Heres a little history of whats happen. I recently had a ferrari F-50 front clip on sale on ebay. Nobody bought it because it was for local pickup only, and too big for me to ship. A custom kitcar maker that lives by me showed me a mclaren and convertible enzo body he made. WICKED!!! He lives by me. He can make anything. He wants my f-50 clip and Im throwing in a replica gt40 clip I have.
In return, I get a wicked one-off kit. The wide-body sides are going to be based off the attack kit car. Heres a link:My Webpage The front end and rear are still being thought of. The convertible enzo he made blew my mind like nothing before. If this works out....Im hoping I get some molds made. Your ideals are welcome. Im keeping the 4 headlights, but going custom on the taillights. Im going to have to space out the rear wheels. Any problems anybody can forsee are welcome.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

here's a little tip for the front
the housing around the headlights...
the divider b/t high and low beam
instead of keeping it as is, cut it back quite a bit...should give a more agressive look from all angles

i think the TRD front actually did it too

Yeahhhhhh..... no. I've seen the Attack Roadster before (in magazines... of course), and I'm just having a hard time understanding how it is that you'll be able to use [similar] front fenders. I mean.. bodylines? Hell, odds are you'll be getting custom doors done as well, or at least modifying yours to make them work better with the new fenders, so what am I talking about. Good luck with the project! I've seen in your past post that you really like F55 taillights, however I'd recommend something, I dunno, bigger. I'm a fan of the new Mazda3's tails (I believe it's the 3, maybe the Protege), and think that they'd look nice on our car. You could always just get some wicked rare tails that virtually no one has seen before, maybe something imported.

There better be some pics!

Actually, Im just copying the rear fender flare and scoop and the door section from the attack. Our doors have that liitle indentation at the bottom, and I am going to use thoses lines. Im using the z3 fenders with the vents cut out and a custom molded scoop in there similar to a slr mercedes. I have seen the mx3 lights, and I like them. The new look now is LED lights. Im looking at aftermarket ones and the new infiniti. Its a long project and it starts this weekend.
