Hey mate, welcome.
Whats the function of those lights/switches next to your cigarette lighter? Ive only ever owned Jap spec Celicas and they all have extra coin holders there (I put my cellphone in it).. No electronics on it aside from the ciggie lighter and the light up ring around it. -------------------- Mike W

i can tell the bumper is different or repainted seperately, but anyways, good job on getting a very good potential car. Performance or looks, you are a winner either way. If you get a TRD shift knob, it will sit lower than that looks. Makes it shorter without getting a short shifter, but a short shifter is really low.

so what are your plans for the celica??? like cuts said, join ozcelica etc... well some things i wanna do are new exhaust, make the indicators on the front bumper clear, new rims, interior lights blue eg dash and that, maybe gt4 risers. also when i move outta the country to ballarat and dont have to travel crappy roads ill lower it. as you can see nothing performance wise at the moment, stupid P plate restrictions. yeah im signed up over there as nirvanafan i think. |

Hey man thats nice, I recently bought mine (im 17) and i was looking at that one you have there before I found mine, good buy.
P.S. With all the people saying join OzCelica.... Personally, i joined a few months ago, and I'm still awaiting activation, so I can't participate in anything, and I don't even have permission to PM a mod to ask why my validation is taking so long... Pretty **** IMO |

You have got the pretty rare headlight covers. So did you polish the heat shield of the exhaust manifold? It is starting to look great, keep up the good work!

I noticed that you have a leather wrapped steering wheel and shift knob! Try polishing up the valve cover that would look good it you could keep a nice finish on it. Just keep working with different polishing techniques until you find one that works.
