[update 10/18/2015] shigexile's Preface SS-Four Options

[Shigexile]

First i wanna say thank you to Martin (Malpaso) for his support. I had plans of doing this before but never had the funding and a problem with the seller in UK for a long time. And then Martin completed his SS-Four bumper and by looking at his pictures, it solved all the probems i initially had. Thank you Martin, you the man!

So i finally got the bumper from UK after many complaining and off i go to the body shop where i used to work during the summer






I got paint and body stuff for a cheap price since i was their best prep guy they had

For some reason, the grill didn't lineup perfectly... but not noticeable

The things i still need to do (exterior wise):
1. Paint the bumper "teeth" back to black
2. Paint my UK splitters silver
3. Exchange the high beams seal because i "accidentally" painted over them
4. Put the rear ss-III splitters on after paint
5. Getting my rims in about a month or so (and tires)









Do you think i should paint the bumper "teeth" back to black? I'm kinda getting used to it being painted...

C&C welcomed

Thank you everyone for such nice comments

whatthe: Yeah, its the stock silver. I did clay bar my car prior to taking these pictures. Plus the lights in the garage brings out a little blue tint to it. And about the rims I am getting a set of ADVAN RCII 17x7.5J +35 in silver. The flatened out bumper in the front is explained below



trdproven: The rectangular holes was the main part of the st204 bumper that was throwing off the alignment so that is why i had to eliminate that part.
Actullay trdproven, i used your picture to make a photoshop image of this concept lol thanks, you had the UK splitters with preface, side skirt, 17in rims and the exact angle i was looking for.



malpaso: i couldn't of done it without you! The front turn signals, i want to keep them amber so it will look more stock (plus finding clear bumper lights are hard for the preface celica) but i might consider the fender lights

vincent_doggy & playr158: Yeah i have like 3 to 4 shades of silver on my car right now as well as 2 different vin numbers BUT i am planning to go BLACK or a LEXUS SILVER in couple years so till then this will do
