Ok, got the photos,

Our roadtrip included of this lovely little campsite tongue.gif






Then we decided to start heading offroad



and create some dust


and then I tried to take a shortcut.. which lead us onto this



.. It was a little bumpy.. I scraped on one part of the track and the grille came out of place, so I have to put it back in frown.gif



By this time the celica was getting a bit dirty tongue.gif

And on the way home.. I needed a reminder on which side to drive haha



In total drove about 600km's, once we got into the more 'remote' areas I got to drive on The Great Ocean Road. It is a great road to drive on, route along the beach along with really windy roads.. I loved it..

Looks good!

What was that website that had the hood latch again?

I'm getting the parts numbers from http://www.toyodiy.com

but looking up the hood latch is confusing because of the different euro, jap and 'general' models on there.. but i think its the jap one..

Small Update..

I've had my gear boot cover on, but didn't have photos of it, I've also had a play with photoshop of making easier before and after photos tongue.gif

What came with the car was pretty awful, pretty happen with new one smile.gif


My armrest cover also arrived, of course using red thread, Once I stretched the leather I took the thread out so I could use the cup holders, because the screws once put together would keep it in place..

Looking really good mate. Also nice too see that you are enjoying your Celica to the fullest with all those road trips away biggrin.gif. I am thinking about ordering the red stitched leather centre console cover as well. Where did you get yours from? Cheers,

Tom

1994 ST204 TTEClick to see my progress thread :)

If you wish smile.gif

I put the low beam seals on and happy to see what a big difference it makes


Then came most important of all redface.gif
6gc stickers biggrin.gif


And last of all.. Indicators went from.. bland

They look great in the night.
Today has been a big day, very happy with what has been done smile.gif

Looking really nice man! Personally I'd remove the Toyota Celica badges. I think it looks cleaner but maybe that's just me, maybe I'm biased tongue.gif

Or go with the cursive "Celica" badge, dont see to many of those around. Your build is coming along very nicely though man, keep it up.

Curren tails will only fit a coupe/convertible where the JDM facelift tails will only fit the liftbacks.

Ha says the other guy who paid a hefty price for a shiny new badge tongue.gif
After rolling badgeless for a while, I decided I'll go back to badges, plus I couldn't be bothered filling in the holes

I am looking to get the cursive badge.. Still thinking about it

Trailer hitch removal kindasad.gif

FS thread :Custom Celica partsmade to order + moreClick the image to visit my FB page
Josh advises me not to...
The car came with it, I have no intention of using it

Only reason I'm keeping it on is as a 'form' of protection
If someone rear ends me that hitch leaves a nice surprise for their radiator tongue.gif

I was going to remove it but a 7 car pile up of someone rearending someone else, then rearending someone else... Etc happened today right next to me, made me uncertain kindasad.gif

Also seeing what happened to PegGTS doesn't help tongue.gif

It's a not going to save your ass (your car's ass to be specific) as it's not the full setup. It will just go through whatever hits it. Just hope it's not some SUV as your new JDM tails will be victims. tongue.gif
I have made a habit of looking at the rear view mirrors before braking to see if someone is coming too fast.
