has anyone tried to mold the celica to accept supra tails? i love the look of the supra, but quite frankly i just cant afford to buy or even maintain a supra. and secondly, what are the dementions of a supra?
could a supra bumper be heavily modified with fiberglass to fit a celica -------------------- poopra sellout... 88targa, 50trim ct, 383lsd, and shreadin tires like its my job!!!

Yup, a few people have. Try a search on this board and you'll find them. It is quite difficult to get it to look right on the Celica and needs quite a lot of custom fab. work so won't be cheap. The existing taillight recesses have to be changed in shape and depth, the numberplate holder needs to be modified. If you want to get the look right, you also need to modify your bootlid (hatch) and the interior boot trim. QUOTE could a supra bumper be heavily modified with fiberglass to fit a celica Yes, but it does require heavy modification. It is too wide, so you have to chop a bit out of the middle and rejoin as well as fibreglass the sides to tie in with the Celica rear quarters. Oreo's car also has the Supra rear bumper IIRC.

shazzamm...
  im pretty sure he never got around to finishing it. the reason it looks good is cause the lights are up higher than most people put them and he molded a supra bumper on there to...by far the best looking conversion and i wish i could have seen it done

^ i remember those pics. sucks it got totalled. that was the sexiest supra taillight/rear bumper conversion ever. he also had the uber rare trd front bumper, but luckily it wasn't on the car when it got totalled.
