QUOTE (SwissFerdi @ Jan 21, 2012 - 11:17 AM)  Both of my driver's axle boots tore. Grease everywhere. Will be replacing axle with new unit soon. I must commend the Celica on three years and nine months of flawless service, as this is really the first thing to "break" on the car. Thanks love. <3 Mine did that also... during the summer... lol... No issues yet  But I'm sure they'll need to be replaced soon.

Today I got a call from my wife, telling me as she was backing out of the garage she hit the celica. Turns out I will be needing a new bumper cover, and turn signals...hopefully nothing else is damaged.

Process was quiet simple. Remove the mirror from the car, by the 2 screws under the cover on the roof. Mask off the surrounding grey edge with tape, and apply coats of plasti-dip. I can remove it easily if i need to

Did the two-post three-post thing a few days ago. I'm still not sure why Toyota designed the spoiler so oddly, but I do like it for the 90s appeal. The look is much improved with the middle post gone.

Idk about on the hatch but on the coupe the spoiler is kinda flimsy without the middle post So i think it was put in to stiffin the wing up -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

If I'm correct in saying, the coupe three-post is straighter, meaning it may need that third post in order to prevent movement. I assume the more rounded shape of the hatch three-post may lend a bit more stiffness and resistance to flex.
