QUOTE(prpnum1 @ Dec 30, 2004 - 6:21 AM) How would you get around the part where the fender and the bumper meet how there's thatkinda dip or whatever there cuz the 7th gen doesnt have that? Just wondering cuz i was actually interested in something similar to this [right][snapback]228072[/snapback][/right] When I cut up the vader top, I cut it in half and kept the sides also, so I could bolt on to the fenders. I actually cut those lumps off the vader sides. The veilsides(bottom half of my fairing actually are going to stretch to the beginning of the fender. So that hole bubble is actually covered. What i got to do now, is fabricate some sides, about 2 inches. |

Got alot done today. The bumper is actually a reality, and now a part of my car. I glassed the 2 parts together using fiberglass and kevlar. The pictures are real and not photoshopped. I then primer it white to look a little better. While I was at I pulled out my hot glue gun and glued those rubber rings to my headlights. So tommorow, I will go and buy some shortstrand kittyhair, since I dont want to use rage filler for this. I will then hit the front with the grinder because some of the kit is overlaping top to bottom. Once thats sanded flat, I will apply the kittyhair and sand it straight.
The 7th gen veilside sideskirts also found their way on to my car. They took some serious warping with a heatgun, and the they are about a inch and a half too long. Cool, because I could not get the front part to fit right. Its warped funny. so I cut the front off to take the space. I will cut the front in 2 pieces and mold it back on to the side skirts, due to its wierd shape. Screws showing will done be countersunk and tops filled with filler so you cant see them. The project is working out pretty good so far. I still need a cool looking vent for the front to give it some life. So put your pictures up. Doggy, I didn't like the rsx veilside vent, but thanks though for the ideal. I also dont want to use the gt4 vent either. Here are some pics. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

After i sanded that down, i applied rage filler. I then started fabricating the sides from fiberglass, but i ran out of mat. i also continued working on the sideskirts. Heres some pics of today. |

here goes my opinion
![]() In overall i like the look of this kit on 6gen. But what i would try to modifie is those 2 side vents. on 7 gen they look ok, but 6 gen front is a bit more massive, so those vent look out of proportion and too tiny.. if you could take the marker, and draw the bigger vents on the sides, just that you could imagine how would they look if they there a bit bigger. Actually i will try to photoshop them ![]() -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

Most of the front is done, got alot more done. Went out and bought some more mat to fab up the sides. They just need some sanding and the rage filler applied, rivets sanded flat and then block sanded. I hope to have this project completely done by sunday night. Heres some pics of the sides:
Heres pics of the front. You can't see where the top and bottom mate any more. I also finished fab up the sideskirts. I don't like them, then I realised whats wrong with them. The rear fin part is too high. So I am cutting it down an inch to match the body lines. I need some turnsignal ideals guys, because I don't have none. I was thinking of cutting out the stock turnsignals and molding them in. i really don't want to do that though. Are turnsignals on the fenders legal, or do i have to have them by the headlights? |
