Hey-hey, I'm new to being a member but have been visiting the site for a year now, just lazy in joining.
Anyways, I just wrecked my car sunday night, I hydroplained in a turn, hit a tree, and did a 360. It smashed my fender, hood, and front bumper. Also smashed my low beam on that side and a few supports. There is possible frame damage. The cool thing is that I drove it back home. Well, at first I was just gonna get the stock body parts but decided on going custom. There are few parts that I have been looking for and got some ideas and prices but I would like to see what you guys know. The parts I am looking for (cheap as possible too!) are: 1. vader front air dam or the varis EXTREMOR 2. a carbon fiber hood like the invader hood with the center angled piece 3. projector headlamps (lows and highs) I found the vader front air dam at extremedimensions for $229 and I know that alot of post on here for the projectors say go to a dealership or toyotaworld. I'm having trouble find the hood though. Any comments on what you guys know? Thanks -------------------- CLOSED on 25 acres! -shop coming soon.... |

1. Vader is very abundant and very very common among sixth gens. The Extremor is far from cheap, as you would have to import it.
2. We have several CF hoods. We have an OEM CF, an Invader CF Hood (with a reverse vent), a rare GT4 CF hood, and a replice C-One hood group buy. The cheapest are the OEM and the Invader. 3. The projector headlamps for both lows and highs are going to run you around 800 dollars. It's best to find someone who is parting out their car and buy their used headlights. Unless you've got money to shell out. eBay has plenty of CF Hoods. Search for 94 Celica or 94-99 Celica and you should get some results. Welcome to the site. -------------------- |

I really like that vis invader cf hood! Even though on ebay they are selling it for $359 the shipping is $150 but I checked everywhere else and it's the same.
The way things are going with all the shipping cost, I might not be able to get all the stuff I wanted to this time. (I know, wah!) But you guys understand when you want to fix up your car but can't get all you need then. -------------------- CLOSED on 25 acres! -shop coming soon.... |

I have a vader front end in black primer for 175.00 + shipping. I could probably ship it for around 60 bucks to the nearest grehound bus station to you. Other shipping companys like ups are 120.00 easily to ship. So I wiuld recommend greyhound.

No it didn't amazingly! I got hit in front of the passenger tire. There is no damage to the suspension or the alignment. Drives just fine! I'll have a pic of it up soon.
