I'm going to go ahead and apologize to NickTheGreek for potentially bastardizing his beautiful celica.

But I'm thinking. My wife wrecked my celi okay. I'm getting it fixed up this summer.
If you look at my profile, I'm pretty sure I was the first to put dual stripes on a celica.
That's the way my car looked. Renaissance red with white stripes. Awesome.
I want a new C-One style front cover and a GT-Four hood.
I will be putting on 93 celica mirrors and hopefully 18" 5Zigen Copse wheels.
I played around in photoshop for a few minutes and came up with this...

I think it would look pretty good. If you want the GT-4 hood then you have to buy the real C-one front for the GT-4 other wise you could go with the knock off or the c-one thats for our cars and get a look a like GT-4 hood like the VIS zyclone. But it will look good hope you get it done.

Thanks for the info. I would hate to spend the money and have a gap. The only place I can find that sells the thing is from this bulletproofauto. And they want almost 800 bucks for it. kindasad.gif

IMO, I like everything but the stripers. I dunno, just my opionion even though others might think the stripes look good. The car will look good no matter what anyways.

I think that's the only Celica I've ever seen that the stripes look good on

Well, we're all entitled to our own opinions.
I usually HATE vinyl graphics with a passion.
But it's different with the Celica, and these will be painted and cleared.
They honestly look better on the 99 front end, but it just wouldn't be "my car" without them.

Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it!! biggrin.gif
