it shouldn't be too difficult, it's just gonna be a lot of fibreglassing and filling, which takes time and patience to get it right. however the supra bumper is much wider than ours, so cutting it to match the width might prove to be a bit tricky.
i wouldn't like to guess a price for the work, im guessing it would cheaper compared to anywhere in the uk, where i am. the only thing i would recommend, would be to approach a bodyshop that specialises in aftermarket kits and tuner cars. try to avoid the average bodyshop. |

OH MAN......the legend of "NEVERSTOP"
who ironically did stop. Invader top section + the Do-luck Mkiv Supra bottom section took a lot of work. (hint: there was a full build thread with pics on it) but he started to really do that celica good, until he did stop |

Yet better in my opinion, its exactly what i think would look great on a celica. is anyone interested in a group buy of replicas? Looks like alot of work for just one bumper, but if someone can make and sell these it may be worth all the work of cutting and molding. If its a good quality/ fit, id pay $300+ and if ppl want in on this, theres money to be made from putting in the effort. just a thought -------------------- |
