Hopefully they will be here on time. I'm also waiting for my rails.
They take just as long... ugh the lack of aftermarket support for celica parts.

Damn. I love that front bumper. Would go perfect with the TRD front lip. Wonder how that grill would look with the facelifted bumper. Lol.

Nvm. Found a pic. Makes me want to get a gt4 hood and get the facelefted ss4 front bumper. Then throw on my toms lip. Would look much meaner along with the projectors. Hmmmm.....you're giving me more ideas . Lol.

This does belong to sarintr.

You should check out Malpaso's page also. He is the father of this style.

yup, custom made, gt-four top + pre/post facelift of your choice = YUMMINESS!

and Shig, was great seeing you at the meet. Hope to make it to more this year.

Bummer. That would cost too much for me but maybe later down in the road when I have nothing else to do to my car. I'll do this. smile.gif

If I find time I may do it. I happened to have a, uhh, small altercation with a city bus and there's a gash of an inch or two between the passenger headlights. If I refinish the bumper, I may as well mod it.

speaking the devil... wink.gif



amazing is every single person who used "SS-four" design has in fact unique car because:

- my one is "facelifted" on 1996 ST205
- Shigexile has (as only one btw) "pre-facelift" on 1994 ST204
- sarintr "facelifted" on 1995 ST204 http://www.6gc.net/celicas/ss-4-8225
- vidmav has on JDM SS-III (1998 ST202) also "facelifted" http://www.6gc.net/celicas/1998-ss-iii-hatchback-10789
- and palooke used it on 1996 ST204 convertible with slightly more from GT4 bumper... http://www.6gc.net/celicas/ss-four-c-4594

The same idea but always bit different results in the end. AT200 one is missing in the list smile.gif


--------------------
No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

That is really the greatest look for the 6GC... and Toyota didn't even think of it! tongue.gif

Malpaso pretty much has my dream Celica... I hope to one day emulate it (With a 205), with maybe a TRD spoiler and a slightly different shade of blue (8L5) biggrin.gif

Shig's SS-Four is gorgeous in person. Pictures do it no justice.

Always loved the SS-Four look, it's soo clean.

I have always wanted (and hope one day will) do a Preface SS-Four on my coupe, I think that would be cool wink.gif

I actually started to work on my car again after neglecting it for a while.

First off, I actually sold some of the junk I had laying in my garage back at my parents' house.
I took off my brushed aluminum center dash vinyl thingy and back to the clean stock black panels.
Also replaced my windows switch panels too because I did a horrible cf wrap to them.

Old news but I installed my Recaro seats before the Starved Rock meet.
And as planned, the Bride BrixII went to my logitech so i can play GranTurismo5 in it.

And finally installed vincent_doggy's bling bling mirror polished kick plates.


Something I finally came around doing last week was my horn. I haven't heard it for over a year!
I was surprised to find out so many people with aftermarket steering wheels are driving without horns. Probably the reason why the how-to information was scarce on the internet...
I followed a fellow 5th gen enthusiast's thread and "borrowed" some wires, sheet metal, and tools from work.

Next up is to fix my fog lights (not working), climate cluster (really dark), and possibly the hardest to do: Take that stupid bug out of my projectors....
