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

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 smile.gif

No more replicas... This is evolution... This isSS-four:)________[Featured Celica of 6gc.net @ 2010]_________
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?

wow.
simply brilliant.
the more i look at it, the more i like it!

this very much looks like what toyota could have done in say 96..or even in 98 when they added the projectors.

really REALLY impressive.

Thanks for help with explanation... wink.gif 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 wink.gif laugh.gif

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...

Subtle, awesome look smile.gif . I'd like to try that with my c-one replica front end but sadly it requires money. I'll have to live with photoshop for now...

Now keep it garaged.

Do you think you can get with someone and create this style bumper?

You bet it's now... never the same mistake twice.

I think someone should make moulds of that piece that you fused with your bumper so that others might be able to try this. Didnt another member do this but with an invader front... I love it.!
90% - I'm interested. Edison said genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration.. so just fudge the numbers and let us see.
just realized there were more than three pages to this thread.. :idiot:
buy 225-50 next time you get tires, looks much better wink.gif

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
Thanks to Nathan (celicaST) I have chance to follow recommendations of some people here smile.gif. I know I have said many time "I will never do that"... but... I'm starting to believe they just belongs to my car. It really looks "not complete" this way:

Right?
