I been looking at these Front / rear bumpers. (The bodykit has been changed since i started this thread, So if you recall another one thats why)





I know someone who paints, So i can get them painted for cheap.

But how are they mounted? is there bolts with it?. Is it hard?. How hard is it generally. I never had experience with mounting a bodykit.

Any help is appreciated biggrin.gif

The supplier dident wish to say what company made them, for whatever reason there is, I have seen them on another website too, but failed to obtain a name there too, Whatever that meens i dont know, I'll get them from this website if it is.

http://www.migatuning.com/

They currently has all bodykits up for sale at a price of 1000$ no matter what combination and model. Some big sellout, So 1000$ roughly for a complete bodykit.

Im planning on combinating it with the OEM sideskirts since im not a fan of the ones in this kit, Besides the OEM ones fit perfect on the celica, I just think this kit would give the celica the final touch to awsomeness. I like the clean lines it likes to keep

The reason I like this kit is because the front bumper is different from stock, but not all that ricey (see Invader). The rear I don't like, the sides I love.

My current plans are Varis Arising II Sides, VFiber Zephyr front (404A Knockoff since the 404A isn't produced) and Varis ST205 Rear...

The "not so ricey" is why i like this kit.

I think the rear belongs to one of the less ricey ones as well

I have choosen to buy the whole kit for 1000$ then shipping is around 160$. so 1160$ for the complete kit, Which is not bad. On another website they wanted quite more for the same kit, Its also some sell out shop that sells all kits very cheap for a period of time.

So now im waiting on new Bodykit / raiser blocks / JDM tails. I guess im gonna make a progress thread once all that comes in wink.gif
