My car that looks fast but isn't...

Wow, cant wait to see it. (I still say keep the spoiler) •▬•

That lip looks really aggressive on that bumper

I think the spoiler will look weird with the new front bumper. Plus i really want that thing out of my view in the rear view mirror

I really dig it man id love it if the wheels were white or something. Im not a fan of black wheels

Good luck with the rest of it

Thanks.

Ya. I'm not too sure about white wheels though. Maybe something like hyper black or something. I plan on getting LMs at some point so that is when I will start trying out new colors.

Nothing exciting yet. Still haven't been able to go get my new front bumper from the dealer. I will be heading out to the dealer tomorrow to order it so I should see it around Monday or Tuesday unless my bank decides to hold my hard earned muns for a little longer. Damn banks.
And I am still waiting for my Extreme Drop kit to arrive. Hopefully I will have that tomorrow.

I think the only thing that has happened is I got a Stance|Works sticker.



Here is the lip before unwrapping it. No pics for you yet.



Saw this little thing when I was out getting a new mouse for my pc.
I'm not sure how I feel about it.



Oh, and my car got covered in firework crap. I wish I had a garage to put it in but I don't right now. I will be giving it a nice bath tomorrow since I was unable to do it today since I was sick all day.



Sorry about the awful pictures but I'm sick so... Im not really feeling like taking time to get amazing pictures.

I hope to see some of you guys at StanceWars on Saturday.

I think if you paint the wheels silver or white it would looks a lot better.

I'm not sure about white. I might try at some point. I just went with black because it was something that wouldn't blend in and look bland. I had silver wheels before and I loathed them.

Good. Its still so terrible though.



Sweet. Now I guess I know of two Celicas on bags

Do you know Nico? idk his username but his car was on the previous page, blue one. lol wrapped white/ on bags/ 18x10 something work wheels

Ya I do. His user name is nic0. I haven't seen his new setup though. I knew he went on bags and was nearly tucking a 16 but I haven't seen the new rims.

UPDATE:
Got my new front bumper in and got it on the car for a test fit. Looks pretty good IMO.

I will hopefully be getting it painted this weekend so then it will look like it belongs there. The holes in the hatch will also be filled in when it gets painted. The spoiler may be coming off today, but im not sure since it is pretty warm outside and I am not really feeling like dealing with that project.

Extreme Drop kit is finally in the mail. Will hopefully be seeing that around Monday or sooner.

On to the pics.

Before



Here is one of the cracks and the whole reason I am replacing it. There is another one on the other side that's just like this one.



And the new bumper with the new lip. Fresh from Toyota. Sorry about the pics, the bright silver and dull black were hard to get to agree with each other. Oh and don't mind the hood, its not latched so that is why it looks all jacked up.





This new front bumper really makes me want some 18" LMs, so I guess that will be something to purchase during the winter time.

New bumper + lip > stock bumper.

[Xtra Big Kahuna]

Agreed. I think it will look way better once the spoiler is off too. But I ran out of steam today so that will be happening tomorrow.

[rice4life]

Whaaa....
I like the spoiler.

It adds character.

[Xtra Big Kahuna]

Meh, I don't think the spoiler looks good at all with the new front bumper and plus I am really tired of seeing in my back window. Plus, when it is off the back of my car will look way cleaner. I am shaving the rear wiper and antenna while I am at it. Should make the back end look much more sleek.

[markglasco]

yup, i think it'd be better if you remove the spoiler it will make the car look smoother and it helps with the overall flow of the car.

New bumper looks gorgeous, the skirts can actually work imho, here a couple of pics i found over the internet with different skirts.




good luck on your build mate!

[rice4life]

If you sell that spoiler it will end up on the back of a civic hahahaha.

I really like clean cars though, it is your style, and will really make this celica stand out from the crowd, while looking rich and sleek.

Thanks. I think the skirt will end up looking better once I get them closer to the ground and get them level to the ground. Right now I have some rake and I am not really liking it.

Haha, ya. I have actually seen a neon with my spoiler on it and I was so ashamed. I have a picture of it around somewhere. I probably wont sell it though until it becomes either rare or starts coming back in style. Right now I can't get anything for it and its just not worth the trouble.

Thanks.

Keep up the good work. My fiance drives an '01 GT (no body kit), and I always was curious about doing little stuff to it. I'll keep an eye on this,
