This has been a work in progress for two years now, mainly because of being too busy to source parts and then 6 months to find a decent/honest spray painter to get the whole thing resprayed. Let me know what you think. There's only a couple of things left I would like to do:
1) Put some spacers on to get the wheels to come out further in the guards. 2) Tinted windows. Apart from that, I like it because it is close to stock, but still looks nice....I think anyway. The first picture is on the day I bought it off an old lady, full stock.

Oh nothing happened to the foglight. That photo was taken the day I picked it up from the spray painter, and I hadn't put the foggies on yet. You'll notice in that photo both foglights are missing.
I actually would love to get some JDM Tails and Projector headlights, but they're both so expensive, its a bit of a joke to be honest. -------------------- 2 X ST165 GT4's

you don't need the projectors because they were an option, but the JDM tails would make the car!

Good luck with it man, make sure you post up pics when you're done.
Also, some guys were asking about my hood lining up with my front bar. You'll notice in the photos its pretty good but not 100%. Since then I added a couple of nuts underneath where the bar bolts onto the support and it looks perfect now. -------------------- 2 X ST165 GT4's

I took your advice and bought a pair of JDM Tails, it cost me $126 US delivered to Australia, on ebay. Is that reasonable?
Are they a straight bolt on, or is there anything I have to do ? -------------------- 2 X ST165 GT4's

Did you see it on ebay? hehehe....
Honestly, i'm not keen on selling it at all. I really love the car, its an awesome car man. So reliable and nice to drive and looks good too. I was just bored and thought if I can get a decent price for it, then why not. But I would actually be more upset if it got sold than if it didnt. Thats why I bought these lights, because I have a few more little touches I would like to do to it yet. I would really like to put spacers on it, but I dont like the idea of them being illegal. -------------------- 2 X ST165 GT4's

I think it looks like a gt four..
Lol just kidding. Yea Definately need spacer like said. Or sell those rims and get the exact ones or similar with a better offset. but the rim color suits the car a lot. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |
