Hey guys,
Just a quick update, my Celica now has the side skirts and rear splitters both on seriously on the road you are treated differently to some cars for example tonight a Nissan 300ZX flys passed trying to show off on the freeway and then later a Honda Integra Type R Anyhow here are some pictures    ...And just a couple in the carpark   I'm honestly loving the new look! so much more like a sports car! Can't wait to get the Front SS-III Splitters and Grille to match

Hey guys,
Finally got round to wiring up my fog lights Just simply bought 2 wires and slotted them in the relay spot with spades and then connected them to a switch, extremely easy! was very doubtful it would work, but it did Also some new $2 headlight globes i bought to test out, really good and here are a couple of pictures Day:  Night:  I bought some white LED lights for the fogs, should I use them? or stay yellow? Thanks guys

Thanks guys Y U No grill? Good work on the foglights. If you want them to be useful I think I recall that yellow / warm white is the best colour, but I would do a bit of googling on that. Needs projectors (eventually), haha
