Should organise a meet up.
i can get that lip for AU250 imported. but i guess u got the whole package, cant wait to c it on.
Some local guy was selling the SS-III kit front rear sides spoiler (with the toms lip) for NZ200 which is about US100, they didn't know what they had lol

cool so you finally have the HB projector light, you can finally get those installed thumbsup.gif
so you have the toms lip and SS-III splitters, are you going to change them every couple of days smile.gif

Bumpers back on, need to go out for lunch. Only need to put the undercovers and screws back on and can start cruising again. Tested my 10,000K last night. Looked like a scanner of light, blue light. I cant stress how good the cutoff is on projectors. And of course how awesome they look!

no, no trouble, just unsure about that tape part on the top of the splitters leaving a mark/peeling paint off.

cool idea, so now its a weekday you have to post a pic with your tom's lip on biggrin.gif

Sway bars, i do have the intention on purchasing. Modding is an expensive hobby. Coilovers, im swaying towards megan or bc since ive heard so much good things from trdproven about the megan tongue.gif

And the 7gen rims.



what are you going to do with those stock rims ?

I dont know, put them aside as a set of spare rims?

Dilemma. . . Thinking if i should go ss-four. I have a spare st20X bumper donor and will purchase a st205 hood and bumper. Why not go full gt4 you may ask? Cause it seems harder and more costly to modify the crash bar and have custom st205 foglight mounts made.
The cons is that my coilovers will once again be delayed again. laugh.gif

looks awesome as is !

my st205 swapandour Beams swap
what coilovers you getting?

ST202 SS-II CELICA threadNew Zealand members check inSticky thread's: How to contribute and troubleshoot.
the cool thing about the gt4 bumper is the extra vents although you can still do it on the ssIII bumper just like the fensport 7gc. that ss4 would look real good with the toms lip. I see that you are following my route, copier, thats why i got the lip and painted my car black so that I can run from you. now you caught back up with me, haha just playing man. youd better not paint your car black now.

Lol, dont worry i will never turn to the dark side! Yeh i was thinking ss-four with toms lip should look wack.

[b]My Build Thread|Flickr|My Blog
wack or nice? you'll notice the toms lip is higher than the splitters thats why i dropped it accordingly to make it less obvious. Its higher than my stock sides but would even be more higher with your 404 sides. where you gettin your money man.

Dude I was even supposed to go to Cairns next week. Looks less likely now since the hotel availability and rates went higher than my budget. Plus it was an out of the blue decision. Australia really looks nice in the pics. and you are only 4 some hrs away.

Wack = Out of this world. True it would sit higher, but when i dump my car (which is never lol) i wouldnt have to worry too much about killer ramps as the lip is high up and thin. Where do i get the money you ask? I just work part time at a grocery store while studying fulltime at uni.

Cairns ay? I live in sydney and i havnt even been there. Says alot doesnt it laugh.gif

I might hold off on this exterior mod, just seemed really awesome to do at the time as i was given the opportunity to do it (parts for sale). As im already quite pleased with the exterior and modding now should more aimed at suspension and handling.

Rico.
