GT-4 Bumper, What about the back? Options

[Guest_Matthew_*]

Okay, I am gonna get the stock GT-4 front bumper and I was looking for some suggestions about what rear bumper I should get. I already have the Shogun/Veilside style kit, and I know that the rear bumper wouldn't look good with the GT-4 bumper so what should I get?

[boibleu22]

as far as i know, the gt-4 rear bumper is the same as ours, no mods or rear valences. but u do know that if u get the bumper, if u ever really do get the bumper, ur gonna have to get the hood as well, right?

Whatever happened to those pictures you were gonna post? I thought you found the CD w/ all the images. I think we're all still curious see pics of that 5SFE turbo and the Veilside kit.

Also if you intend to switch over to the GT-FOUR front bumper/hood and have some money to spare, I would buy the dealer option front/rear/side skirts to get that true JDM look.

[GT-4]

dealer option front and rear? What is that?

[ghostdog]

here is a pict of the front/sides... I can find one of the rear as well if you want

[0Re0]

Get a varis rear

[GT-4]

id like to see the back. I got my GT4 hood and bumperback from the paint shop...and its beautiful. Ill see if I can take pics before I put them on. I want to cry...the body shop did a great job. I have always wanted an ST205 (I have a ST165 fully modded)...but I couldn't get one due to the fact that I live in the US...at least I will have a lookalike to "fake" in.

im so glad i have the sideskirts, im going to talk to the dealer today about the gt4 front bumper and hood, i hope they can do everything, i though we had the same rear bumper as them

[FallenHero]

Yea, I talked to a friend of mine at toyota to see about doing a gt-4 front end swap. It cost a fortune! It would probably end up being about 2000k!

[Cody]

I'd do it for that much.

...also, would any of you think that a GT-4 conversion would look tacky on a coupe?

yes i am gonna get the hood too. The hood was gonna be my first option but then some people told me that there would be a little gap in the front that would look tacky. So I decided to see about making it look like a gt-4. Too many people have the same kit that I do. I want something that not many people have.

so the side skirts and rear bumper on the USDM GT's is the same as the GT-4's? Then obviously all that I would have to buy is the front bumper and the hood? Right?

[Guest_Matthew_*]

tacky... no

its not like many americans actually know what a GT-FOUR looks like anyway. besides the GT-FOUR from the Initial-D movie was a curren/celica hybrid and it still looked pretty sweet.

and igotta5S-FEturbo, is that your car in your sig. it looks sweet !!
