Front lip is a modified type R lip. Looks unbelievable in person. Rear lip is a modified lip for MX5.

I am thinking of putting black mesh grills on all holes. What do you think?
Awsome job! The front in particular looks very clean. You can tell the rear was not made for a Celica.

i like the front, dont know how much of a difference it is. but it looks good
Front is awesome Neoklis, really good looking, about the rear.. hmm >smile.gif> Not bad, but could be better >smile.gif>

i love the front...and i don't really like the back. but, mad props for goin custom. we need to see more custom kits and whatnot instead of teh 404, 404a, invader, and c1 knock off.

Personally i wanted the holes in the rear lip bigger so the black mesh grill would be more evident. Basically this was the only kit that seemed to be fitted easily at the time and the holes on the original kit were quite smaller.

In the end, my giberglass guy had some trouble with them as the Celi is wider than the MX5 and Type R and had a lot of trouble modyfying them up to this. Good thing we agreed the price upfront.

I will be posting a pic from the side. Its really unbelievable. Even spoilerless, the gt4 is now extremely beatiful.
awesome

i agree the back really doesnt fit the celica... it needs to be a bit wider... but again, you get alot of respect for doing something custom..
looks good. did your fiber guy cut the pieces in half and extend them that way? or add glass to the sides? I think I would prefer the vents being out further, like this:

I don't like either. They both look really flimsy and not meant for a Celica. The GT FOUR front has too many openings in my tastes. But nevertheless, it's a good quality job and I am a big supporter of custom work.

Neoklis, you deffinantly have to change the wheels.... they look kinda old on your car now, and get some bigger once...and somthing is not right witht he rear (maybe cuz im used to see gt4 with spoiler >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif> )

And fron is really look amazing, whole car is looking exelent...

Yes the spoiler will go back on, but also, black mesh grill will be set at the empty space on the rear lip aswell. You have to believe me that they look 100 times better in reality. my camera is really useless.

rims have been on my mind for some time now. I already selected what i am going to get but i am a bit short on cash right now.
i have to say that it looks awesome and mad props for custom...but i also have to say that i think the back would look a lot better with that rear lip being molded onto the car to take away from some of the extra curves. good job though. cant wait to see it with the spoiler
I think it all looks great. I give you tons of credit for buying the parts and having the guts to cut them up in order to make them fit. >wink.gif>

Diggin' it with the spoiler off, actually.
