today i went to a car show and it was at a ford dealership, so i thought i would go there and rain on there day by brining the celica. (i was the only car there that wasnt a ford or something old/chevy) you wouldnt believe how many people gave me crap for being there, but in the end i walk away with a first place trophy for the peoples choise all around best in show
 ! the feeling was great! go celica's  i love this pic because they were the only people there when i got there and they went right to look at the celica!  the girlfriend, who i cant thank more for helping me with my car(she is a true celica lover) with her toyota shirt on just to tick the ford guys off     thankyou for looking! -------------------- It takes 8,460 bolts to assemble an automobile, and one nut to scatter it all over the road.

how did you win first place if everyone hated it?
 on a side note what happened to your front lip for the invader/vader/veilside bumper? --------------------  |

Yeah I was wondering that too- it looks alot better, i mean in my opinion, with the bottom part of the invader kit.
But sweet for winning, wish there were car shows around me

well when i bought the car, the umder piece wasnt painted yet, so i put it on ayways and it really looked like crap so i took it off and i have gotten more compliments with it off than with it on!
thanks for all the compliments it means alot QUOTE (Tom_SS2 @ Jun 26, 2010 - 8:38 PM)  how did you win first place if everyone hated it? well, your guess is as good as mine. at one point i had to ask people to move so i could get into my car and start it for them. on a side note what happened to your front lip for the invader/vader/veilside bumper? -------------------- It takes 8,460 bolts to assemble an automobile, and one nut to scatter it all over the road.

I am really happy for you and congrats on the win! Today, I got an older man in a corvette today compliment my MR2 widebody. So you would be amazed by what folks are used to, and when you hit them with something new, they gain a new respect for it actually seeing it in person and you taking it upon yourself to be different (which is what the corvette guy wanted to acknowledge).
