You got all that for $180? Good deal. I need you around when I start shopping for car parts haha.
OreO's car turned out great, others have not turned out so great, but they left the 6th gen bumper on the car. Sounds like you've got a good plan though, so best of luck to you.

you did a good job on the rear, i'd be interested to see pictures of your process of mounting the tails, cutting ect.
how did you get it to fit? and please dear god get rid of the huge ass lights in the front |

The lights look great! Not a fan of the front at all nor the design of the rear bumper, but I guess you needed that specific one to make it fit?
Good luck with the project. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

ahh so the trick is to use the supra rear bumper! How hard is fitting that bumper? did it require alot of cutting as well?
But no your work looks pretty good, the front isn't bad either if you remove to fog lights. Paint the whole car black and you got it good. |

Want to see how you went about getting that all lined up. As far as your big ol fogs...Im sure if they were molded in there they would look great. |

What are you going to do about the Supra bumper hanging down quite a bit lower than the Celica fenders, just out of curiosity?

I am with richee about the rear bumper being lower.
The front end does need work, but I have confidence that if you can make the supra rear light conversion work, you'll be able to work the front end out. =) Great job thus far man! -------------------- Pandelica 2.0 in progress. |
