the fenders and everything are awesome but the hoodscoop is not what I call nice. If it was functional for like a supercharger or some major ram air applications that would be freakin tight. But just sittin pretty it needs to be molded (then maybe I'll like it.) All of the other stuff is way sweet just needs new paint!

Uuuuh... that's not true. If I see something I like, I comment on it. Take NEVERSTOP for example, I think his car is going to turn out really nice. There are others as well. But, this is just my opinion, which probably isn't worth much. It's just a matter of preference, that's all.

Is it just me or do the vents in the in the back of the fender behind the wheel sort of make it look like a wide body kit? I like those things a lot.

Actually, that's not entirely true bro. My philosophy is : K.I.S.S. That's why you won't see me with a whole bunch of stickers, two tone interior, etc. But this is just my style. I know that everyone has their own styles, and I don't hate on them for it. If people ask, I just tell them if I like it or not based on my own personal preference. But there's nothing wrong with doing what you all want to do. It's your car... so don't let my comments or anyone else's discourage you. Keep doing what you're doing guys. It's all for the love of tuning. But if we were talking about performance upgrades, that would be a different story. SAY NO TO FAKE BOV DEVICES, FAKE HUBCAP WHEEL SPINNERS, ETC. Oh yeah, thanks for the compliments. It means a lot. PS: If you don't know what the acronym means, just ask. |

Love it man. Once you get that painted itll look great, so long as you mold in the scoop. I havent seen that many scoops like that one on celis. Its original and should look good IMO.

thanx guys,, the hood scoop is being molded and cut right now. Something else original, i took a sunrrof wind deflector and the windo wind deflectors, you know the plastic tinted ones? well i molded them on too and primed them so they will be all painted the same as the car. And then everything will be one with the car.....
also when i get back from the s*$#ty place korea, im putting in a custom duel exaust.... |

Im down with Kuyas philosophy, make your stuff different then other people. But also I know how hard that is if you don't have the skills, and if its your work/school get around car you cant really leave it in a shop. I personally dont like z-3 fenders because i have them on another car, and there tired. But I am buying them for my celica. Im then going to mold in those little arrow things at the bottom, cut out the z-3 vents and mold in some vents from keystonerestyling.com
pocket fenders. These guys wont sell me just the vents, so now I got to buy some fenders to cut out the vents, mold them in. Waste of money maybe. I might mold in the z-3 vents back into the other fenders and sell them to recoup some cost. Waste of time....Maybee! Custom....Yes You wont see other fenders like this out there. I bought a used invader kit cheap on ebay. Im going to use it to hack it up and see if I can come up with something different. I am going to buy pakfiers kit. thats why I haven't been able to get my Lambo doors on, Im always working to try and pay for this stuff. I need a 30 hour day! |
