Been away ages but i'm back and i finally got my celica finished.
Let me know what you think.

I'm looking into getting a throttle body setup on trumpets, does anyone have any information on that?

The full current spec can be found on my profile if anyone is interested!

Thanks for looking and let me know what you think biggrin.gif good or bad!














Hasn't been lowered on the coilovers yet, waiting until it passes the national car test in case i put it too low for the rollers!

Should be getting it rolling roaded soon aswell biggrin.gif

No stranger to accidents biggrin.gif Fella ran a red light 3 weeks after i bought the car!, 2 other crashes as a passenger and 3 crashes on my motorbike biggrin.gif just gotta pick yourself up, dust yourself down and get on with it!

If it gets a little dent in the bumper itself then it could be filled but if the extensions get smashed to bits then i'll just have to drill out the rivets and do a rebuilding job! If the sideskirts get damaged bad enough that they'd have to come off i'd imagine the car would be a write off as panels and doors would be smashed in also! Small little knicks i can do with filler etc.

To be honest, didnt cost that much. I riveted them on then a bit of fibreglass filler followed by some fibreglass matting etc. The main thing is the time involved and to get it right! Took me and a mate ages to get it some bit decent! filling sanding filling etc. etc. I did it myself so i wasnt paying any labour but paying a spray shop to do it would cost a fair bit i would imagine due to the time involved in doing it. I had a lot of practise on my girlfriends civic. I needed something i could make mistakes on before i went at the celica tongue.gif
