Done = Painted and on a running car. Both of you still have a ways to go from being done.

Dip i like the idea of blue, but keep it clean and leave flames to the hot rods. some nice white pearl or small metallic flake would work very well |

VARIS makes a lip and i think HIRO might have a set of splitters but I can't remember
I have seen a "C-one" type/style bumper but yet to find the producer, I might just try and adapt a celica one to fit. |
