I'm not arguing about your car, I'm arguing about the ignorant comment he made.

Hey Faust, have you looked into getting some sideskirts? Also, where are you located at? I figured since we never get to meet (ever) that during one of my trips down south I will be able to stop by for a photoshoot? smile.gif

Nah it's not like that man. I know you and plyr just spout out at the mouth and hold nothing back, which is what i love most about you guys. I know it isn't about my car, and even if that were the case, I can care less. I am just saying, after a few posts of you two going at each other, just move it to private messages. I was like that when I first joined, and I ended up being friends with the guy I thought I had a problem with.

I just don't like to see people fighting on here is all. You all post very frequently and it is nice to be drama free on a cool site. That's all I am saying.

I am in Bakersfield, CA on the way to Los Angeles pretty much for you. Call me when you plan on heading out and let me know in well advance so I can join you. I think it would be awesome! I blew too much on my car this year. But yes, I am looking into side skirts (I have the TRD replica rear skirts) and a Eurou front lip. Basically it will look much like Kloudkicka's ride. I like it very much, but with my own colors, because I have to be an individual (aside from car body style like his).

That's exactly what i am saying. I had the same feeling when I got red rims, and now everyone is copying me in town. Regardless of what everyone says......... I am proud to say NOBODY, has a GT4 like mine. Others may look like others, but NOBODIES looks like mine. Which is why I did this. I don't play with vinyl, but if I did, I have an idea of my own.

Hey thanks man. Yeah I mean a clean look is cool, but I have waited all my life to finally modify a car. Now that I made due with what I have (celica, would have opted for something else), and having the most individual car in town with people staring at it like it fell from the sky......... I love it! Regardless if people love what you or hate it, the reaction is usually the same. You got eyes on you, and in my eyes that is all worth it. So far all has been positive, I have Supra guys trying to get to know me, I have people telling me how hate celicas but they love mine, it's great!

Thanks for the comment and post pics when you get your stuff installed so I can check it out. Yeah a lip kit is the next big thing, or the swap. I gotta see how it goes. If I end up with $1k to spend, then yeah the lip, but if not and I have more by Summer, then the swap. Because I still need a paint job.

I like everything about the wheels EXCEPT for their fitment. They look more tucked than stock wheels! Correct wheel fitment makes all the difference in the world!

Nah it's cool. I don't care what everyone else says about "It Needs More Red". If anything, I have an idea of how I would do it if I did, but so far for now, I am keeping it. Everyone else locally digs it, and I am content with it as well. Like I said, if people have black rims (or any other color) and black is not part of their color scheme, with black riser blocks or a black hood and it is looked upon as acceptable, then they just need to adjust to it. This is out there, and even if the color choice isn't pleasing, I still have what people want. It's not like I got an oversized aftermarket spoiler that people wouldn't normally touch and tried to pass it off. I simply stuck to my color scheme in ways that others do, just not the same choice of color.

The red blocks look weird to me. I think the whole car would flow better if the blocks were black. The wheels are ok, though they do take some getting used to. Not bad at all.
