figured i would join up and introduce myself all proper
here is my build journey so far
i have a 2000 celica that i bout 1 year ago. here she is all factory
bought her with some damage. but everything is fixable right?
mod bug hit real fast. for those of you that dont know, the celica has some good parts out there that are super rare. i decided those were the parts i wanted.
so than i began
did some routine maintenance as everyone should: new plugs, oil change, fluids gaskets etc
did some paint
than the cf bug hit
so i went out and got a super rare cf headliner. real cf, just so its knowin i **** cf. dont be cheap. by the real deal. thats just my deal. i laugh in my head when i see fake cf. (i hear theres pills for that)
i was the only one in california with one. only 25 were made.
here is it installed, also did a suede sunroof shade
car came pretty beat up. i next installed a lip, a wings west lip
seibon cf hood came next
started painting my interior black
than more cf
next i got the rare sports lid (you can see through it) some wings west sides and a trd spoiler with a cf blade
than i got slammed into
thats his damage
heres mine
so i fixed it (i do bodywork for fun)
got the s2000 antenna and some rare 1st gen Tyc reds brand new
at this point i decided to change the whole look of my car.
i wanted a car that looked like it could have came from the factory. so the conversion began. got an 03 front and c-one lip and started the work
than before i ever installed it on my car, i traded it to TheeMark for my trd front bumper
and got some gts wheels
than started on the interior work, custom hand stitched visors
than i found the side skirts of my dreams MOLLY. hella rare and sought after. just what i needed for my clean look! but they were in bad shape. so i fixed them
had to mount them to the car, cover the holes and paint while on the car
than i dropped her and modded my trd rear to be cleaner. notice the other car has the fins that i shaved off
carbign craft apr cf mirror covers
thats me on the right
added drilled and slotted rotors from 88 rotors
than i decided to buy my 03 bumper i had worked on back
and she really started coming together
recently sold the cf headliner, gonna get a custom one done.
future plans.
18X10" wheels
full interior
bags
roll fenders this week
list of mods is long, here is a sample:
trd exhaust
cf pillars
cf door inserts (sold)
kyb + ground control coil sleeves
carbign craft plate garnish, mirror covers
wink mirror
jdm side markers
sports lid
c-one front strut
c-one rear strut
c-one trunk bar
c-one front lip
gts wheels (25mm spacer in rear)
hid kit
etc etc
anyway, there you go
comments are appreciated!
hope to meet some of you soon if anyones in socal
