QUOTE(Jaws4God @ Feb 27, 2008 - 6:42 PM) [snapback]646471[/snapback] wow looking great!! I was really having trouble seeing the difference between your bumper and the GT4... ... but now I know what people are talking about with the SSIII look vs the lower GT4 look.. Just for you I have looked for old pictures i used in photoshop... This is pure SS-III  This is pure GT-four  And this is my "SS-four" prototype    Now everyone must understand difference QUOTE(joehernandez @ Feb 27, 2008 - 9:48 PM) [snapback]646585[/snapback] damn!!!!!!! i love those rims!!!!!! cant wait to see them on your car!!! how much did you paid for those? Thanks man... Those are Borbet T. 16x7.5 ET35. Price is just normal for alloys like this. About $800 include shipping and safe-guard nuts. Now I have on them my old 205/50 R16 Goodyear F1 tires. Fits perfect. In a month I will be able to use them on car at last  -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

Man this is so freakin uinique.
Out of curiosity though how did you do it? Did you cut your bottom half of the gt4 bumper and top half off a 96+ bumper and molded it to fit together? Whatever you did, awesome work man! Can't wait to see your new pics with the rims and considering getting a trd wing or something? |

QUOTE(j0e_p3t @ Mar 8, 2008 - 9:05 PM) [snapback]650736[/snapback] ss-iii splitters + gt-four hood and bumper grille = ss-four Thanks for help with explanation... It's not SS-IV (according to line SS-I, SS-II, SS-III, ...). It's hybrid of SS-III and GT-four body. So SS-four... one of a kind  Note: thanks all for comments and support. I'll post more pic when winter ends here. Until than I do not want put those new rims on... -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

Subtle, awesome look

To Sthen: That's real honor hearing that from you mate... Since I have seen your celi for my eyes last summer... I can say it has damn unique improvements as well!!!
To mikecelica: Mike... you are fired! note: I'm sure you can not get point of this joke Mike... but I'm sure Sthen can To ILuvMyCelica95: Thank you Tina... Compliments from beautiful ladies are never enough To All: Thanks all for comments! Last weekend were nice weather here so I have decided to make wheel swap sooner than planned . I had no time wash my car and polish it well so please excuse small photoshop edition of pictures . I promise next ones will be pure, clean and taken on better place

now, all you need to do is giftwrap it, send it with FEDEX to me. Ill take good care of that beauty.
Do you think you can get with someone and create this style bumper? get it patented!!! -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
