i've been ignoring this thread cuz i thought it was the same as the other one...
but omg, your car's beautiful... i bought the exact same body kit pieces from boosted6g minus the rear splitters, but suddenly changed my mind and wanted to go oem gtfour cuz i was worried about fitment and stuff like that.. man.. you really had us going when we thought you were gonna keep your car 'flat' black.. btw, black is definitely the hottest color (or shade.. whatever) on a 6g.. because black shows a lot more reflection than any other color which really shows off the celi's body lines and curves.. i'd give this a 9.8/10 rating since the only thing bugging me is the center tri-circle emblem on the rear hatch and the slight gap between the hood and the bumper.. but that's just me being paranoid. but i'm really lovin' the shaded toyota emblem on the front. -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Hey guys, after suggestion from my little bro (who also suggested I paint my rims gold) I decided to amber out my turns and sidemarker. Check it out:
 Bought the amber from Super Autobacs... 22 bucks... but it's quality stuff.     2 coats...needs more...  4 coats...  Sprayed sidemarkers 1 coat so it'll match a little better... After Pics:    I think the amber looks way better... There was too much clear going on in the front... this helps balance my bright gold rims. |

for the orange. looks great, i think there was too much clear on the front as well. really compliments your car better imo ^^please dont paint the jdm tail turns!

No way am I touching the tails... they're sexy just the way they are. Thanks for the compliments.
I'm not sure how I'm going to minimize the gap between the hood and the bumper. The only thing I can think of is relocating the latch a little lower or something like that. |

try screwing in the rubber stoppers first and see if that helps lower the hood some more

You have done your car up tastefully! I think I am convinced to get some raiser blocks too. If you just had the JDM Projectors, you would be set, but even if you don't, the ride is still bling, blingin in the OC.

u can change the hood to bumper gap by loosening the 3 bolts that hold the top of the bumper to the body. if they are too tight, youll have a bigger gap

Ok I cleaned the gap. I can't believe you guys even noticed it. I used washers and placed them uder the bumper to get it just right.

I don't know why I'm selling her... I'm looking through all my old post... makes me sad.
I guess I just want a daily where pot holes and steep driveways wont be a problem. But I'm getting an SC300 an old one... 1993 |

^not a bad choice, 2jz powaaahhh!!! those are very sexy, but way heavier than your 6g, for a car that i loved so much as you and your 6g, i would've kept it and perhaps upgrade the turbo, etc and show people what a celica can do
but none the less man, life goes on and things change, if ya feel like letting the 6g go then do what makes you feel right edit: oh yeah, and aren't those RWD?? be careful with a RWD daily driver when it rains or whatever, you're lucky there's no snow down there in cali, from where i'm from, a RWD isn't even in the same sentence with daily driven
