what about the curves of the hood, they were made to go with the headlights curve.....i think i would look weird if you got rid the round lights to put in square ones (by that i mean flat on top)

I think he was referring to the girl's rear, which goes along with #1. Also my vote goes for the silvias, they look sick. The Tc lights look good from the angle shot but not so good head on. Plus the silvias would be custom and original, and originality is great in most cases, and at least respected in the others.

Sence this was brought back up. yeah the tc headlights, dont really look that good. I was almost thinking about doing this, sence iv been starting/learning, and working on more custom body stuff. I was thinking some porsche 911 head lights, I think that would be hott. and it also has a very similar front. not sure if they woudl be mounted right. But thats what i have been thinking.

already the people who have help with this are
pali player
vangsta celica
dustin15brown
clement
selling all my stuff
pressure2

I dunno, maybe its just me, but i think the porsch 911 head lights would be so much hotter. Some one said, dif lines, and they dont fit- they havnt paid attention to the lines of the s-15. Heres a very quick rendering of what it could look like. Just another opinion

Ok...bored as hell, so I thought I'd use my mad MSPAINT skills and whip up another S15 chop. I don't care if its not to proportion, I think it's hot.

EDIT: Oh yeah, added an intercooler too. Just thought it'd be neat. biggrin.gif
