Well as everyone should know by now, on May 12/3 I sold my Celica and I purchased a 2002 ST246 N-Edition Caldina in Japan.
Anyway, the car got to the compliance workshop last Tuesday and is in the final phases of the import process. A few shots of the car at the docks in Japan: At the moment the car is waiting for our Government to make the Compliance Plate (A bit of metal that indicates the car is legally imported). Which may take 1-3 weeks... While that waits I am getting a few things fixed up so she should be sweet for delivery and roadworthy!

When I tinted my tail lights I used a vinyl film and it was fairly easy to use, just took some time getting it stretched and wrapped around given the size and curve of the lights. You can trim the edges some with a razor blade if you want, I trimmed the edges and went back over with the heat gun and it turned out fairly decent. Main thing is making it to where water won't get in behind the film and cause lifting.

Only cost $1 and had enough to do both lights, the only bits that look eh will be covered by the trim so it is alright haha. If it does lift down the track I might get some proper tint and re do them -------------------- ------------------------------| White '94 Celica | Bought 11/05/12 | Sold 12/05/15 |------------------------------ |
