What kind of breaks do you have?
oh ya and you need to get rid of that wire frame front grill and get the black plastic grill, like the stuff they use on the new GTI's wayy better imo

Definitely a clean ride. I, for one, like the body kit. Sure, it's extreme, but you can tell it's race inspired, and not just all sorts of stupid shapes. I also like how the whole thing is colormatched, like the rims, the smoked lights, and the hood. Is the hood CF? I can't tell. In any case, I'd leave it black. It looks mean as hell. What does the hood scoop lead to? Also I think you've dropped it just the right amount. It's very low but doesn't look slammed at all. The mesh grill opening looks good, but a front mount would look better there. :bannana:
Any power mods? Because if not I'd say that's next. 2JZ Swap!!!!

I am not a huge import fan at all and when I see any type of import I study them fairly well especially when they have a ton of plastic looking junk on them like yours does. The rear wing is a little much and the front seems to match it. However for some odd reason your car/paint/wheels seem to match really well. Not sure of the grill options but if your looking to improve the looks of it I couldn't tell you what to do. If your looking for the sporty/race/sleek look I think your there. Nice style! 9+/10.
P.S. I wouldn't be
embarrassed to be seen in it. :)

Front bumper is too aggressive imo. I dont like the whole kit though either. Diff strokes for diff folks.

thanks a lot man. smoked lights painted by HotWheels on 41. the wheels are actually tC wheels and all i did was sand a spray paint black...funny. looking to upgrade. hood is VIS CF. the scoop does actually open into my engine bay. the grill has just been temporary. i am just savin up for the Blitz SC with the intercooler. (found that turbos dont like my motor). right now its got just an injen cai and trd exhaust. nothing special. trd exhaust is too quiet tho, id like to get a univeral apexi n1 with custom catback.
changaroo, blank cd: LANE JORDAN. the man for photos. all i know is that we used two tripod flashes, and his camera. dont know much about photography...thats why i got him to do it:goodjob:
KITTY KA-T: um yeah i drive a celica, and i like it. and hey i even think it looks better than a boxy 80s-90s car...gf drives a 92 prelude with jdm h22 btw. yes, my gf is faster than me.
BUGMAN, mushroom_toy, Leekor12, dumbwit3k1d: body kit came on the car when bought. just kinda living with it right now, trying to clean it up since. it has come a long was to be honest. leading to my point, my gf is buyin me the trd front bumper and skirts for xmas. the stock just doesnt match the agressive look i want.
overall everyone thank you for the feed back. i didnt expect so much positive due to the fact i own a celica...:gay:. but hey i like my car.

hey man! its been a while. im gettin nopi withdrawals already...eventhough its progressively gotten worse (just imo). but yeah, i got a new VIS CF hood with the raised hoodscoop. but the sc order was postponed bc i needed to pay bils and underestimated my income. its comin tho.

damn...lane's good.
but i think i saw this car at nopi if im not mistaken. Like what others said...bumpers are a bit too aggressive but it still looks good.
Do they make lips or anything like that for celica's?? something real clean and simple
I_luv_chikin
12-08-2007, 02:23 AM
I think the car looks pretty good all except for that space invader front bumper, I would have rocked the TRD front bumper over that to. I would reccommend an 03 bumper with C-one lip or a early model stock bumper with the wings west C/f lip... that would be BadA$$ on your car.

yeah thats the TD3000 kit. basically TRD doesnt make the "action package" body kit for the celica anymore so some company now produces it. it may be a remake, but i personally cant find any differences between the origional and the remake. tryin to get my hands on one for xmas. there are good prices, just that shipping is horrible. you guys know of any local places that may be able to get their hands on one so i dont have to deal with shipping charges?
^^i agree.
