6G Celicas Forums

Just got the bonnet open....only bumper and crash bar damaged. Anyone got a preface lift bumper in red for sale?

I say it's time for an upgrade. Get a facelift bumper! Although I do like the look of the pre-facelift on Luke's car...

Managed to get the stuff from a guy ok CCUK called nix for £60 inc P+P. Thats for a pre-facelift red bumper and a crash bar

Awesome matey Nix is one of the good guys.


Next mod for you.........

Snow chains

Haha yeah.
Deffo goin to look for some tyres with abit more grip though.

You seem to have taken this better than i though you would lol. Hopefully by sunday you wont know i ever had a crash....

Well, it happens.

If you'd put a veilside kit on it.... Then i'd be mad

Bad luck!!

I know how you feel, believe me. I crashed my Celica just last week. Just waiting for the engineer from the insurance company now...

Think it's gonna be written off tho as need new bonnet, driver's side wing, new bumper and driver's headlight. Managed to source most of the parts except the headlight!! As rare as rocking horse sh*t!!

Good luck with the repairs mate.

Well i sorted out the new bumper on saturday with Dan23 from CCUK.






what a fun job fittign the bumper was, we had to cable tie the pipe for the jets out the way, and cable tie the fog in for now, its all gotta come off again for the re spray so it doesnt matter, whats important is it doest look terrible now.

and of course i couldnt resist getting a little photo shoot

















EDIT : I dont know if its just my screen but the car looks sorta purple...i assure you all its still very much red!!!!!

you stole my picture you little swine

no its looks more pink to me in MY pictures, but ti is actually pretty red in person.

So luke i saved you old car

Saved it?!

Did you try to pop the old bumper into shape? It kinda looks like all it needs is a kick to pop it out?

Look forward to seeing it resprayed, in the mean time, get the polish out boy, it looks dull as hell!

Yeah i did actually just kick it out and popped out no probs! Needs to be heated abit i think just to get it perfect but its certainly useable again and probably in better nick than the other one lol.

Im off to a body shop this lunchtime to find out about a respray!

Haha it needs a clean but the weather has been awful so not really been much point recently but ill get on the case soon!!!

WOW!! AWESOME!!! im glad you got that fixed up man! how much do u think a crash bar will run you. i wouldnt suggest running around like that for long.

Fitted a new crash bar that day just didnt get a picture of it!

I went to a local body shop today.....


Car is going for a FULL respray in june/july WOOOP!!!!

From the ashes of despair, the Phoenix shall rise...

Glad to see another 6gc NOT going to the scrapyard. Mine really is a piece of crap, but i never drive it in the winter for that reason. I HATE SNOW !!!!! and we get plenty over here, trust me.

Wow cool, that car deserves new paint. It'll look awesome.

have to admit Luke it is a nice car, does need some touches, which a full re-spray will sort out. and i cant believe you never touched the engine either, shame on you Luke lol

lol, when that badboy is polished up, it looks superb.

and yeah, could never really be bothered with the engine bay, always better things to do

i dont mean to jack the thread, awesome work guys really glad to it back on the road. but what kind of riser blocks are those??? i like that look.....its not as big as GT4 ones just nice lil ones, id like to add some to my hatch

They are the Half Euro raiser blocks i think! Ill see if i can find a link for them : )

sweet thanks!
