New bodykit not fitting headlights - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #63600 12 posts Started by Project7afte
Just got the invader body kit, the line around the headlights is horrendous- there's about a 3/4 inch gap all around. I've already tried fiberglassing around to get it close but to no avail.

SOOOO, Question: Is there a headlight bezel that I can epoxy to the bumper to make it flush? Or would it be better to keep trying to fiberglass around to the light to make it fit?
do you have the rubber seals that go around the headlights?

Yes, the rubber seal is on. I came up with an idea though, the old bumper was basically trash, so I cut out the piece around the headlight and epoxied and filled it on to the new bumper, it fits perfectly now.
how much did u buy the bumper for?

BANNED. for life, you moron.
The entire body kit: rear, front, and side skirts were about $600 usd shipped.
where did u get it from??that doesn't seem that cheap..should have fit better..

The turn signals wouldn't fit otherwise. laugh.gif
that happened to me when i got my first kit for the celi years ago. I had to fiberglass aroung the lights to close the 1 inch gap. The body shop left it like that too. Thats when i decided to never put my car in the shop for body work again. I do it all myself.


Almost done. Just needs some touchups as of now.
