^^waiting for you to get them on

considering:

cf hatch
CF oem style hood
tint -not too dark though
paint calipers -red i think
paint interior -light gray or silver similar to the beams ssiii - use chrome rattle can not too light, not too shiny, just dull enough
paint rims -gunmetal anyone? - go for it im gonna do mines

to purchase:
grill for bumper -black mesh? - another option is the rain gaurd mesh things. alot more flexible than chicken wire
header of some sort- either 3sge or ebay style
new seats -leather or 7th gen. beams seat covers would be nice though.- Mmmmm leathers
ssiii emblems -to go with the theme -
carpet- (mines thrashed) in dark black - hahaha same here get it embroidered "Celica" in blue

if u go cf hatch and cf oem style hood, and are toying with repainting the whole car...spray or do a cf overlay on the roof, between the 2 water drain grooves in the roof. so u have a CF/dark strip up the center, a few people have done it (2 maybe 3) and imo it looks good with the right color (silver or exotic bright color) on the rest of the car.

edit: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=58565&hl= if u scroll down through the read, severx13 links a few photos of a 6gc, from the game juiced, with the concept of what im describing. Doggy painted or worked on some car that had the center section of the roof painted black.. an audi i think. cant find it with a search tho.
