Alright ladies and gents, a few updates.
-7th gen short shifter
-Black leather shift boot
-6GC Stickers
And yes, I think I'm going to get a lot of 'criticism' about that 6GC sticker on the hood. But I like it. So bugger off.
(Black and Silver is going to be my paint theme... Going to get a black 2post pretty soon and get silver blocks)

Idk what it is. But it looked like it was leaking. So I did what everyone else would have done.... I taped that b*tch up

bro, you need window tint!!!!
A work in (extremely slow) progress
The reason I ask is because it looks fugly (sorry) but on some WRC cars, the Tow hook is painted Red and it reminded me of that. I Might do that.

Drop looks good in this pic
Can't go wrong with black and silver. I wouldn't paint the entire riser block silver, but you should
definitely paint the words "GT-FOUR" on the riser block silver

You, sir, are a genius
Very grand idea indeed. I think that's what I'll do, actually. Haha.
Just need to save up some more money to get it. SOMEONE BUY THE DANG SPARCO SEATS OR BRACKETS AND SLIDERS!

Genius? No, absolutely not. I've just taken a particular interest in your car. It's very close to mine. Clean, black, facelift, 5 speed GT, JDM tails, tan interior. Right down to that little bitty ding on your fender in that picture I quoted. Mine has a similar ding in almost the exact same place. The difference between our cars is that you've gotten to do things I haven't- you got rims on your car and I never did. You have your car lowered. I had mine lowered a long time ago, but it's not anymore. In addition to the work you've done that I haven't, you will have your car a long time from now and will be able to do things to it that I will never get to do. I'm living vicariously through you right now. Lol.

didnt you have a 3 post spoiler? How come I cant see imprints and excess holes in your hatch lid?
Did you have it professionally installed or did you get a 1994-95 hatch aswell?

Alright, another update.
I took off my front bumper and driver side high-beam to get the condensation out and reseal it, and my friend Joe was looking at the taken apart headlamp and said "Hey, you could paint this ribbon thing..." and I looked at it and was like "Hmm, never seen it done before, I could be the first... And it might look pretty cool!" So I went to Kragen and got some black glossy paint.
I took LOTS of pictures of doing this step by step and opening/sealing the headlamps, etc. but my computer crashed and all I have is cell pics from the days after. The pics of the process are on my camera. I'll post them up when I get everything back to normal on my computer.
But for now, here's the end result in low quality pictures;

Your Celica now has black eyes and you killed your visibility. Good job.

Visibility is exactly the same. I actually got a quote from a junkyard close by for the lows just incase. But visibility wasn't affected at all.

Well, in that case I retract my second statement.

black out your headlights too, with HIDs you wont even know the difference
