6G Celicas Forums

so heres the deal. i want a lip for my car and i dont have the money to aford one right now so i bought a diff bumper for my car a wile ago and put it on. so i LOVE my celica but i just dont like how the front of the car looks so i thought of an idea.... the origional bumper i had i cut it so that i can build my own front lip wich i will keep updating trust me on that. but any ways i didnt like the wing so it hit me "WHAT IF I TURN IT UPSIDE DOWN AND TRY IT UNDER THE BUMPER?" crazy i know biut it actually fit. so heres a few pics of how it looks, plz dont be afraid to coment i want to know what you all think.





thanks for looking.

i think it has potential to look good but you will need to do a lot of work on making everything flow.
hope to see what ya do with it!

EPIC FAIL! LOL!

Ha! you could put Nightrider red LED's in there

It actually doesn't look as bad as it should, but by the time you've spent a load of cash getting that thing to fit properly, it would have been cheaper to get the real deal.


You'll ruin your car if you put that on.

whoah its a wing

Use/get a hold of a 2 post. otherwise it looks like crap. good idea though

Not a bad idea nice to see some inventiveness off some 1 else shame it doesn't go farther round the corners of the bumper though celicas have a long nose , I used the diffuser off
A renault espace it has 2 vents that look cool and I cut the bottom lip off it and turned it the other way up it fits pretty good

I agree. C'mon, get a proper lip spoiler if you want one. Don't use an upside down trunk spoiler! And what the heck is a v8 logo on your car for?

if u nearby, I am gonna blow up ur car

ouch man... v8 magnum badge? seriously? I am literally out of words for this thread

Wow! You know with all that effort your going to put into that, i dont think its going to work. I am surprised at how much it does look like it could work, but its going to take time and money. All that time and money could be better spent elsewhere on your car, for example, painting it all the same color, getting halfway decent wheels, you know stuff like that.

... are you serious? SPID33.... please, don't do that...

thanks every one for looking but its not gonna be permanent i was just seeing what it would look like and yes it would be nice if the wing could reach all the way around. i saw a thread on here of someone making their won front bumper well i kinda want my own lip. as far as how much money it will cost idk but its not gonna be permanent but it does look like it could work. YES i knew it was gonna hapen... v8 makes you think...


yeah im waiting on sideskirts wich should be here soon and wheels 2.

UPDATE:
so here's what Ive done so far. i cut my old bumper in 3 and i am using the bottom like a toms lip kind of deal to mold a new lip.


and yes it fits pretty good.

One question...Why did you cut the upper portion into two piece also? I'm sure you have your reasoning, but you didn't elaborate much on it! I like where your headed now with the "toms" lip idea. Much better than the spoiler, even if the spoiler idea was eventive, it just wasnt attractive. GOOD LUCK with your new mission, and keep the pics coming!

Ok, this is starting off way better than the spoiler. So your going to use that bottom of the bumper cover to fabricate a lip?

yup i just want something simple because i dont like the lip that they make for this car. i want something unike .
