So, after talkin it through with alot of my friends, parents, family, etc. I decided that Im gonna keep my celica. Im gonna still be taking it off the road for a few months. So i decided that while its off the road, and im working im gonna put some $ into the car to get it back up to par of where i want it. So i decided to do a list of things i need to get done with the car. My goal is to have it all done by august 1st. So...pretty much, i need to get all of this done in the next 5 months or so.

Tint windows, re-upholster/re-cover rear seats, fix seat back *amp pulled the backing of my rear seats off cuz of its weight*, move amp *obvious reasons*, get oem strut bar covers for rear, weld up e-brake bracket *part of it got ripped off and i gotta tig weld it back into place*, clean up/paint calipers, buy new/used rear controll arms, recondition controll arms, install control arms, get new window gaskets and install them, get new drivers side vent, re-paint interior plastics, get jdm tails, get jdm projectors, fix wobbel in shifter *gotta tighten down the bolts*, new sway bar end links for front, get new wheel bearings on all 4 corners, wrap up exhaust and intake piping in heat wrap, re-vamp intake, fix door rust and hatch rust, undercoat car, clean up rear strut bar, get new TRD plate frames, fix paint chips and blemishes, de-badge rear, new front strut bar *probably cusco*, install gauges, buy DCW single pod, paint and install 5th gen mirrors, get new sunroof, re-do headliner

So, the list starts tomorrow....first step stage 3 of my celica. wish me luck

dang, you stole my idea, i'm about to redo my armrest after seeing seeing vincent doggie's thread too..lol where'd you get the material from?

looks really nice! i'd say go with the black headliner because you don't want to overdo it with the red on the interior. keep up the good work!

Local autoparts store has an upholstery section..bought about 2 feet of it to do my door cards too eventually. For that, plus the vynal to reupholster my hatch tray + a can of $13 spray adhesive was like $36 or somethin. Its U/V resistant to which is good.
