***UPDATE***
Check PAGE 2 for Completed Pics! Finally started work on putting together some projector headlights. I started out with buying used/not installed Rayme Lenses. And a spare set of low headlights to do work on. Months later, last week I purchased Morimoto Mini H1's from TheRetrofitSource.  I was playing around with ideas for shrouds, and tried my hand at vacuum forming.. not bad I guess.  But I'm going to try something else. Today I got antsy and had to try em out.. took awhile to remove the bumper kind of a PITA *Note: Shrouds and Clear Lenses not installed yet*  Upclose   Against the garage the light pattern difference is obvious.  Both.. NOT adjusted yet!

Really cool! Liking it a lot. I never realized how apathetic a Celica looks without a front bumper on and just the two outer headlights rofl.

I know right, I'm used to my car always somewhat "smiling," and the past two weeks I've been driving with out a bumper and hihgs, and it was kinda bumming me out
