[cyprus_gt]

[j0e_p3t]

hope the end product looks something like this...

[dustin15brown]

OreO's car was definitely the best conversion i've seen.... I hope you hit something similar

[richee3]

You got all that for $180? Good deal. I need you around when I start shopping for car parts haha.

OreO's car turned out great, others have not turned out so great, but they left the 6th gen bumper on the car. Sounds like you've got a good plan though, so best of luck to you. Pics ASAP.

[spolski07]

[deathdoakill]

oooh yeah if yal wanna chck out any of my other projects chk out my myspace for more picts http://www.myspace.com/deathdoakill

[playr158]

you did a good job on the rear, i'd be interested to see pictures of your process of mounting the tails, cutting ect.
how did you get it to fit?

and please dear god get rid of the huge ass lights in the front

[garin]

on the rear... on the front... come on man, that rear looks so good, so far. the front is just not up to the same level of excellence! props on the back end though!

[deathdoakill]

most definetly i agree im not happy with the front either ive only had the car a cupple months its from one just of my other celicas just so happens that its a front end i had molded a while back not to fond of it but good enough for a copy at least only ran about forty to make

[SwissFerdi]

The lights look great! Not a fan of the front at all nor the design of the rear bumper, but I guess you needed that specific one to make it fit?

Good luck with the project.

[black13]

ahh so the trick is to use the supra rear bumper! How hard is fitting that bumper? did it require alot of cutting as well?

But no your work looks pretty good, the front isn't bad either if you remove to fog lights. Paint the whole car black and you got it good.

[Spider77]

you did a good job on the rear, i'd be interested to see pictures of your process of mounting the tails, cutting ect.

and please dear god get rid of the huge ass lights in the front

IM with this. Want to see how you went about getting that all lined up. As far as your big ol fogs...Im sure if they were molded in there they would look great.

[richee3]

What are you going to do about the Supra bumper hanging down quite a bit lower than the Celica fenders, just out of curiosity?

[xs94st]

I am with richee about the rear bumper being lower.

The front end does need work, but I have confidence that if you can make the supra rear light conversion work, you'll be able to work the front end out. =)

Great job thus far man!

[deathdoakill]

ok as far as the rear i goes i will go ahead and do a walk through with pics to show how to do this just give me some time ohhhh and to answer your question im gonna extend where the lip ends to match up with the fender well or change the body kit design a bit im undecided depends how it looks in my head. the front might change or be left the same still thinking about what to do. The lights (fogs) are comeing off i plan on molding them into the front end or changing dont know yet im about to order the gt4 front clip but still scrounging around for money so this is taking longer than i wanted time for a third job

[deathdoakill]

finally got them flush wit the body some minor problems the hatch trunk line will worp while metal shaping is being done so after this was fixed i was able to continue






sorry for the bad quality all i have is my cell phone

[TiGZ461]

Coming out nice bro, cant wait for the finished product. Looks like you did this right, lights flow with the body perfectly.

[SwissFerdi]

That would look SOOOO sexy with a GT-4 front. DO IT!

[CelicaST_CALI]

nice!!!you have to do something with that front though ...

[manphibian]

i'm with the others, the back looks to be going well

The front needs work, and lose the boss-eyed fogs immediately

[daazndood]

3 big thumbs up!

[samir0189]

3 big thumbs up!

yeh, awesome!

I almost can't tell its a Celica rear!!!!

Thats how it should be done for you!

[SwissFerdi]

I'm surprised as well how closely the rear resembles a Celica...very nicely done!

[enderswift]

^

[SwissFerdi]

I meant how similar the hatch on the supra looks to the Celica counterpart, etc.

[ej8ferio702]

nore power to you and this build, looking good so far, props to the time and effort youve dedicated to this project, one thing i have to say though is that, you gotta work on that front end, something simple would look as nice, for me i think theres alot of things going on there as far as the fog lights and the whole front bumper itself, but if thats your thing then i cant tell you anything..good luck on your project

[deathdoakill]

yeah i was thinking about painting the car candy apple red its a really crimsonish color as far as the front its still a work in prgress the car is slowly being primered as i fabricate the parts but it should look unlike any other on the road when im done im known for uniuqe cars ive come out with so ive gotta top my last car in my opinion ive got one stock gt4 an st which is the one im doing the conversion on and a gt after the body work is done im ordering the front gt4 clip

[trdproven]

on the rear the top side looks good, but the bottom side does not align, it does hang lower and farther away from the stock. I am thinking it will extend the original celica length further. I assume it will be molded on. Waiting for the finished pics.

[deathdoakill]

give me some time guys ill be finishing this in two three days tops

[ra65_22re]

looks good so far cant wait to see it painted lol baby supra

would like to see a how to if you dont mind sharing

[Tom_SS2]

nice work so far can't wait to see the final product

[95CelicaST]

Looks great. 100% better than the crappy supra rear ends elsewhere on this site. 0re0's was my favorite. I think that for the rear bumper you should cut it to match up with the stock Celica lines. The big bodykit look isn't very flattering on our cars.

[6GenCelicaST]

I am really liking this

[Remy]

Supra style spoiler next ??

[garin]

Supra style spoiler next ??

go spoilerless ... gt-four front maybe...?

[ZGear]

go spoilerless ... gt-four front maybe...?

+1

Even if the rear looks like a Supra, the body is not big enough in my opinion for the Supra spoiler to match evenly. Besides, I like how the raiser blocks are beefier looking, in this case maybe shaved raiser blocks and if not just go spoilerless.

[j0e_p3t]

trd spoiler or spoilerless would look good imo.

[whatthe]

trd spoiler or spoilerless would look good imo.

Im with you.

[deathdoakill]

long dang night of sanding and shaping i agree wit the spoiler comment i was thinking either jdm spoiler http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...RK%3AMEWAX%3AIT
or trd spoiler dont wut would work good for th style

[95CelicaST]

That spoiler is a TRD spoiler.

I think either TRD or spoilerless.

[richee3]

Spoilerless, hands down. Once you paint it and mold the rear bumper so it lines up with the Celica fender at the bottom, you'll have a great looking rear end. I think a spoiler would detract from the work you've done.

[Superaison]

Do the supra front end next

[BonzaiCelica]

no plz dont change the front end. Ive seen the conversion for a supra on a celica from somebody on here and it didnt look good. I think the supra tail light rear end conversion looks pretty decent. The celica can be confused for a supra if you look at it from the rear for sure. But you have to it spoilerless

I think the front of an ss-III and gt-four celica with projectors looks better than the front of a supra

[SwissFerdi]

Spoilerless, or a duckbill. Duckbill would look nice.

[black13]

nah, the supra rear end doesn't look good without a spoiler. Just get the raiser blocks for the stock celica spoiler or go with the TRD one.

[richee3]

I agree that the Supra rear end doesn't look good without a spoiler, but this isn't a Supra rear end. This is a modified Celica rear end. And I like it just as it is!

[lilpmp]

Really Nicee, Would be nice to see some picture with the cutting and lights supportt!

[deathdoakill]

ok finally made some progress but out of money till friday to many bills so ill be finishing up this week if all goes well finished the molding as much as i could but still needs to be evened out looks like crap in person but its getting there












sorry for the bad quality again digital cam died just cell now

[playr158]

good progress!

[MrAyasli]

OMG
that looks sex. well done !

upload more pics !

[CelicaST_CALI]

Do i hear the ring of a r34 front end hahah JK JK....get a gt-4 front and that car will be insane...

[deathdoakill]

yeah im workiing on ordering a gt4 front clip omg 4000 well once my business is all up an running ill be good just never enough time in the day sheesh so for now im just keeping the body the same as far as front end im doing a gt4 engine swap on the other celi i do have three of them so im keeping this one not so traditional but the front by no means is done yet ive got a bad habit of skipping around to different projects i started building a wing for th rear but stopped myself i need to finish the rear first lol im custom making the vents for a cold air intake on the front fenders so after im done if anyone wants or sees something ive made let me know and i can mold an possibly send it to you

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

That was...something else.

[richee3]

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

I think he accidentally this thread.

LMAO X2.

[trdproven]

I have a friend with a body kit with the supra tail light conversion as well. Although he does not care for the car nor does he care it is a celica nor does he care we have the same kind of car. Its like good friends but no relation in terms of celica.

[cheela]

WOW, i was honestly afraid when i read ur first post...i was thinkgin... oh no... its gonna be one of those outta place conversions... but DAMMM this one turned out so sexy! i want to do it now. hhahahaa. looks great! keep us updated.

[ZGear]

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

I'm guessing that he's asking if the OP decided what it was going to look like for a finished product.

[deathdoakill]

omg so many projects bare with me guys im running behind schedule check out the new cars we got including a 7th gen http://www.myspace.com/deathdoakill

[deathdoakill]

ooohhh and thanks for the positive feedback cheela and all ive been getting alot of negative pms lol guess pepo dont like the conversion

Take your time......really don't understand why people would pm someone to tell them that the person who owns the car shouldn't do what they desire. If we all do the same mods, we're all the same.

[presure2]

ooohhh and thanks for the positive feedback cheela and all ive been getting alot of negative pms lol guess pepo dont like the conversion

Really? I'd lime to see some of those... The banstick hasn't been used in a while.

its an online joke kinda thing... his long long sentence reminded me of it.

[deathdoakill]

ok long enough ill be posting pictures soon im nearing the completion of the rear tail light conversion with some surpising results ill be posting on monday guys lataz

[deathdoakill]

ok im sneaking in a cupple pics while im at work latas more to come

[SwissFerdi]

The molding & lights look great! Are you using that grey piece as a type of extension or filler?

[deathdoakill]

yes i found those randomly at a freinds shop while tearing through old bodykits i staired at two peices/side skirts and cut them an molded peices into one peice to extend the lip and i knda like th way it looks with the pieces pointed out off at the bottom end kinda like fins

This post has been edited by deathdoakill: Sep 6, 2009 - 9:02 PM

[SwissFerdi]

Hmm...well then no, I'm less of a fan of that. Will they be molded in?

[forkee]

that is VERY nice. good job. cant wait to see the finished product.

[deathdoakill]

ohh an yes it will all be molded into one piece but im not sure i was thinking about turning the rear section where the gap is into some sort of vent im not sure yet though i gotta c how it looks first i might jus keep it simple i keep turning smething that should only take a cupple days into a week i might not even leave the bottom point the way it is might cut it flush wit the rear

Great job so far. I wish I knew how to do stuff like this.

IMO I would definitely cut it flush with the rear. It looks very unfinished with the point sticking out. Plus, the jaggedness would take away from the flowing curves that the car already has. But whatever you end up doing, good luck.

[deathdoakill]

you need to do anything or wanna know how to do something let me know i can point you in the right direction an post a how to its not as hard as you think it just requires patience an some artistic talent me everything is in my head i never drew out any plans or schematics while doing it just overcame hurdles as they came and change the design as i go which in a way is a good thing and a bad thing im a perfectionist so yeah well i will be doing a full work up of this including how to fabricate the parts just taking longer than i thought money issues and yay me moving soon too

[deathdoakill]

here you go some updates still not finished though trying to find sme sort of fender flare thats gonna match my design

[CelicaST_CALI]

dude..... WIN

[dabazied]

Just wondering, I know you have more to do, but are you leaving this pretty much like this on the two sides?


It might look kinda hot if you cut out that little hidden area and put a vent or something there. Not sure of your plans or anything but just a suggestion, either way, I cant wait to see the finalized product and keep up the great work.

[deathdoakill]

my freind tht is exactly what i was thinking im comming up wit some designs an drawings ill post them up after i draw them out ill let yal guys vote and we'll see which one looks the best

[dabazied]

Awesome

[808celica]

hatch keyhole still functional??

This post has been edited by 808celica: Sep 17, 2009 - 5:45 AM

[whatthe]

I see you baby, shakin' that ass.

[richee3]

hatch keyhole still functional??

I've wondered that as well.. I'm sure all that has to be done is relocate the lock mechanism from where it was at to the backside of the tail light, whigh might even be in a similar place on the car.

Looking good! I can't wait to see the finished product. Those skirts you have are perfect for this car.

[deathdoakill]

well yes the key hole will be relocated but im gonna put a fake one an hide the actual one some where within the body i was thinking either inside the fuel door or somewhere hidden under the fender well maybe just thinkin out loud someone broke into my cougar a cupple weeks ago but couldnt get to the goodies in the trunk becuse i did this
the fake key whole worked well i was thinking of doing a celica front end conversion as one of my mad scientist projects then it would be a cougica lol wut yal think of my cougar sorry off topic



This post has been edited by deathdoakill: Sep 18, 2009 - 4:20 AM

[SwissFerdi]

NONONO on the front end conversion to the Cougar...NO.

Just...don't.

[deathdoakill]

hahahhahahahaha thats just wut i expected lol

[cheela]

yeah, no cougarlica... the lines just don't match. It's fine the way it is.

[Jaws4God]

wow.. just wow..

let me know when you have the bolt on kit ready for all the rest of us to buy ;-)

[ZGear]

celica front end conversion as one of my mad scientist projects then it would be a cougica lol wut yal think of my cougar sorry off topic

I honestly think it would look like the new Tiburon to an extent, the headlights with our body styling....... so no go, because you'd be a "crooked H" wannabe.

[deathdoakill]

lol ok it was a bad joke lol i know but a joke none the less ok pepo im waiting to get more moneys to finish conversion so many bills sigh bare with me pepo i will be posting hopefully the fiished conversion this month october or december ill keep you all updated on wut i do

[deathdoakill]

im working on making a rear air defuser and i think i might have to go get that 3sgte engine sooner than i thght ive a feeling ive got some cam issues im not willing to pore more money into this st engine so im gnna get the 3sgte soon so this might be taking longer than i thought on the conversion maybe but by the end of dec i should be done body wise

[sunwukongg]

well ive finally decided to do a full supra rear end and tail light conversion so far after one day ive done the cutting and metal work now im going to mold the rear end ill post pictures soon let me know wut you all think i just decided to post this to see if anyone has any ideas on this i havent seen anything on how to start this but im pretty good at fabricating parts so im begining in a few hours ive got only one day to do this and make my car drivable i have to work the next day soooo yeah ive managed to get all the the tails and the rear bodykit bumper cover for $180. soo im pretty much set as far as parts go let me know if yal have any ideas latazz pepo

so all you need for this conversion is a supra rear bumper and supra tails?
