**** man thats my old bumper and wing =( lol
car looks clean now..i need to make a before and after thread. jaja
gimme ur taillights!

Looks like you've made a lot of nice progress... the only criticism I'd have is the seats, I strongly dislike the seats because the Celica font is so completely wrong... but that's just a matter of taste I suppose! Nice work otherwise!

How much it cost you to paint?

>

Rougly about 800.00 including the fitting of the C-one bumper and side skirts and some body work on the fenders as well all around the body as you can see....

nice work!!!

Here in new york you have to let the DMV know or else it results in a (hefty I'm told) ticket. Something along the lines of "improper color". You could be charged with grand theft if they feel like it, however I've never actually seen a ticket for that. (Only heard stories)

I know this because I went to go see a tiburon once (piece of junk it was) that had been painted three times over the original red - once silver, once black and then midnight blue with a metallic fleck and the kid showed me the tickets he had recieved. They may charge you because they have to send you a new title - I believe the fee for that here is $75, but I'm not sure.

Also, blue looks good as your neon color - I have red on mine, but they are very hard to hide - I'll have some pictures up hopefully after work today on how to properly hide your neons/wiring. You can do anything you want with a black car, same with white. If you really can't decide, get a multi color kit like streetglow's here: http://www.streetglow.com/s.nl?c=460445&am...pcategory=2831

There may be cheaper kits with less color, I didn't do very much research when I was doing mine because I knew what I wanted. Who really needs 3 million colors anyway...lol

Oh, and one last thing - those are LEDs, so obviously they are not true neons - I've never seen a streetglow LED kit before, but I'll tell you what, I had amber neons on my old sunfire and they were LED, and the glow that neon tubes produce is VERY hard to reproduce. So just keep that in mind whichever route you take.

Wow, your car looks 100% better! Not a fan of the wheels tho.

now keep it wrapped and hiding for a couple days, then go get it professionally detailed to lock in that shine and protect it.

well thanks alot on the feed back guys, i finally got myself the underglow 7 led kit for my car, and a viper alarm to protect my baby, and oh yeah a 7" in dash dvd, this for some reason is an addiction i just can't stop loving my car!!!lol

great choice on the black, this car looks best in black in imo, great prorgress, I can't wait to get mine painted, and i dig those rims

Car looks good man. Why are the pics so tiny?

holy shi* dude.. this is exactly what im doing to my ST lmao!. i was going for a GT-4 conversion at first but im lookin ginto c-one bumper and invader side skirts and rear bumper. with a GT4 wing. only thing diff would be th ehood. im also looking into a GT-4 hood

>



yeah dude i had the gt4 wing on it and well, it came off so now i took it off and well left the stock and now i dont debate over if i prefer the gt4 wing or the stock wing, its just that the gt4 wing made it look non proportional, i dont have any rear bumper, so far i love my car i just wanna get coilovers on it, well ill see what happens ill try to get bigger pics, its just they are from my cell phone, my car i ride it like cruise nights my bike is more of my choice i just love to drive fast man!!! lol

Hi!!
I wonder why didn't u stay in white colour?? I like more white colour on Celica than black( i've black celica as well). If i could buy celica again I'd choose white 6gen Celica.
