I've been trying to decide what to do with my celica and I think I finally found the right choice. I came across a person who did a Toyota Curren front end conversion. I looked into how to do it and im capable of doing it.
The only problem I ran into is that I cant find a curren front clip anywhere. I've looked online, locally, across the country, even japan. I tried to see how much it would be to ship a front clip from japan to here, but I cant
find anyone in japan that sells one. can anyone help me out and direct me to someone who sells or has a curren front clip?
Im located in Atlanta, GA.

And sorry if this posting is in the wrong section.... haven't been on in a while lol

You need to call the engine importers close to you. Be prepared to pay money. Because to get a clip ,most likely they will have to buy an entire car to cut it. They are rare. I gave this dream away... If you show the importers the money, they will get it. Money talks....

Meanwhile in NZ, Curren's are common, perhaps get a 1/2 or 1/4 cut sent from here?

Kept my eyes out for Curren front end for years and kinda gave up. If one pops up I might jump on it but the chances of that happening? %-wise, not very high.




I remember a guy from ND was supposed to sell me one but never got back to me. That was maybe a year or two ago lol.

You will need:

Front bumper
front lights
indicators
Hood
hood catch
Both front fenders
Front crash bar
front slam panel

rad support brackets
Undertrays

Everything else such as lights wiring loom, ac rad brackets, horn etc... can all be made up.

There is a front cut here in north Greece.
It had an accident so bumper-fender-hood will need some work but it can be fixed.
Only parts missing is one right turn light lamp and one fog lamp.
I think the seller was asking something around 400 euros (only the nose cut with hood and fenders). I think it's a great price and I was planning to do the conversion.
that's it
toyota curren front cut

and I think it's the facelift model
