Hmm... that car looks awfully suspicious... Lol. Just kidding. This could go either way. It's not as bad as I thought. I read "350Z bumper on a Celica" and I was a little scared, but it's not looking as terrible as I thought. Keep us updated. And tell your friend to get a job
 no, I'm just kidding again. I know how bad it sucks being broke. You're a good friend for helping him out.

AHHHHHHHHHH!! it looks so freakin AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, WOW!!!!!!!!!! its coming out so GREAT!!! now its a lot easier to see where you are heading with this and its going to be one hell of a bumper!, if you make it hard enough I bet it could be sold for some serious cash. but just WOOOOOOW I lOVE the shape you are giving it!, I cant wait until its finished!!! oh wow I am dumb lol, of course it doesnt has any turn signals, how couldnt I notice that earlier lol, so I guess you are right, the front bumper should be your 1st priority, Wow just wow!, I'm speechless lol, I wish I could ask how much you want for it?, but I'm running low on money lol, if you finish it the way I imagine it will, it could be the coolest front bumper for celicas that I have ever seen, even cooler than my favorite which is this oneHEREyou are like one of the coolest dudes out there! thanks for sharing
