[playr158]

thanks bro i owe you one

[turboinduction]

dont think they made 'aftermarket' supra headlamps. 93-96 has the lined clear headlamp. 97/98 got the black headlamps with the silver rings. JDM and Europe were the same.

[playr158]

yea i want 97/98
but sev found nice ones

[Digndoug]

[playr158]

but post if you can persuade me back to silvia

[Digndoug]

so are u gunna do the supra front and rear?

[playr158]

celica front vader

supra headlights and hood

celica JDM tail lights

celica/supra hybrid rearbumper

[Redline_Racer]

I wanted to do a celica/supra rear end a while ago, my body guy quoted me at $700 for the labor to mold supra tails in my back end and to make our back end curve a little bigger. I decided not to risk it looking crummy. But good luck on it bro I hope it looks good for you, and if It looks good then maybe I might try it.

[vangSTa_celica]

Damnit playr. Go freakin' Silvia. Good Luck on the Supra headlights too tho.

celica front vader

supra headlights and hood

[right][snapback]244230[/snapback][/right]

Just curious as to how the hood is going to fit? I always thought the hood was a few inches bigger?

I like the idea, i am even thinking about doing the same!

[playr158]

i'm goin to use my neighbors hood to test fit and see what needs to happen to make it fit

[Guest_LamboCelica_*]

Please keep me updated, cause i was planning on having the headlights molded to, but i heard you cant do it without having to change your hood, cause if you cut your hood at the end it wrinkles and doesnt close right?
Sound right?

[playr158]

eh i'm selling my stock hood now

and getting a supra cf hood

[Guest_LamboCelica_*]

Can anyone photoshop this? i would like to see how the end result cause i might want to do it? what does a supra cf hood look like?

[playr158]

ummmm do a member search
go to advanced under mods type supra and look through it there are people who have it already

for supra hood? umm looks like a supra hood lol

check cyberbestbuy.com
or just search on yahoo

[Ethnykceli]

eh i'm selling my stock hood now

[right][snapback]244524[/snapback][/right]

[playr158]

Heres a old old chop i did..

[popstar]

any chance, any of you clever guys out there can photoshop a supra lamped GT-4 !! ??

it's just an idea i've been thinking about for a couple of months

[Jaws4God]

idk... i think you guys should just leave the 6gc headlights... I think it really makes the look of our cars unique...

[playr158]

yes that is but i want MORE UNIQUE from the rest of you
and more custom thats what sets you apart from the rest

[Digndoug]

dude the supra hood can not fit perfect, you might as well mold yours, then spenmd money an get a dif hood to have to cut up.

[MK153]

No... dont change your car... it is one of my favorites on 6gc.net just the way it is.

[playr158]

thanks but i have to, i wrecked so the front from headlights forward are trash

new celica lights are rediculusly expensive
and i want a new look

so i was goin silvia but supra is the way i'm goin now

hood won't fit without body modification

5" too wide and quite a bit longer like 6-10"

[playr158]

[Nemises]

good luck. Looks like its coming along. How did you customize the front? Did you have to weld or you went all Fiberglass?

[SoundSlut_dotcom]

plyr = nice job, much props... hopefully when it DOES look good people wont do the SAME exact conversion as u and might try to be original...

nice work
goodluck

[shin]

[Digndoug]

Looks like a nice start. still a lot more to be done.. Also Id say you need to cut out or shave down the bump up from the orig head lights.. it just dosnt look as flush as it should.

[Nemises]

Luv it playr cant wait to see the end result.

[vangSTa_celica]

Hawt.

[playr158]

You fiberglassed in the cold. I thought it had to be at least 60 deg for strong hold. Or is the 60 deg just suggested so it doesnt take a week to dry. Or is their no 60 degree rule and I just thought it up in my head. Anyway mad props.

[right][snapback]256221[/snapback][/right]

It just takes forever for it to dry, and dosnt fully cure. It needs some heat on it to dry and cure properly.

I do glassing in the cold, but it will take like 3 days for it to dry even with a lil heater on it.

[initialdrift55]

haha playr the ride is coming out so sweet....cant w8 to see it done

[BBoYRuGGeD]

oh man its turning out mad good... hawtnesssss... keep up the fantastic work bro

[Blakout16]

should of spent more time taping off various regions and used a paint gun... if u didnt... looked like u used a spray can. im just now learning to tape of things and i have all the right equipment to do it... shoulda put something under the vent so u dont get overspray on the engine. should have done it in a garage, u'll most likely get contaminents in it and get fish eye's.... unless ur just covering for now just to prevent rust and then getting it painted? i dunno, if u are, then its alll good. btw, looking good... need to mold the light housing a little more for the flushness.

[right][snapback]256301[/snapback][/right]

lol not all of us can afford paint guns and a garage
i have neither
i did tape off what was needed and HELL YEA I USED A SPRAY CAN WATS IT TO YA
i made it look reasonable too >
but nah its just for now i have to get it painted later when i finish the body work

[Blakout16]

i got an aftermarket paint job with a spray can..... i got pictures if anyone wants to see em.... it came out pretty nice!

its okay, actually spray can is basically the same idea of a paintgun, cept ur not mixing ur own paint.
and my last post by no reason was a put down or nothing ur doing a freaking asome job. what u gonna do about the headlight gap?

This post has been edited by Blakout16: Mar 14, 2005 - 12:45 AM

[playr158]

LMAO aftermarket spray can job hehe

but what headlight gap? there is none
but i used dupont rubber undercoating for the paint and man that got messed up so yesterday i took a razor blade to it and scrapped it off the car then went and did a real spray can job on it for temp purposes
the headlights seem to be good they are a lil on the tilted down side so i'll have to adjust those when i get a chance but besides
the fix paint and angle adjustment it turned out REALLY good
just have to do a lil more smooth things out work with fiberglass and roll the edges of the hood
then on to REAL PAINT oh wait real paint comes after the 7th gen rear

[Digndoug]

Your kidding about the 7th gen rear right? I dont think the lines of it will match or it will look good at all.. but good luck.. would like to see you prove me wrong.

[SoundSlut_dotcom]

do what u want. no matter wat u do u will turn heads

[SoundSlut_dotcom]

im in the process mof doing conversions myself. if any one dont like it. guess what? i dont give a f**K

[juBz86]

dam thats looking good!!!

[droptopGT]

damn dan, nice job bro. can't wait to see it all painted with the c/f hood

[Fietsbel]

Awesome job! Good luck with finishing the project.

[playr158]

[right][snapback]257584[/snapback][/right]

hell yea i'm using one....i've had this plan for a nice long time cause the invader
rear looks like a$$ and have you not seen the new guy with the custom rear...looks 90% like a 7th gen kit (everyone made the big deal about him in GD)

im in the process mof doing conversions myself. if any one dont like it. guess what? i dont give a f**K
[right][snapback]257675[/snapback][/right]

word^^^ if you don't like it screw you i do
and yea it will turn heads it already does

in new orleans i got a guy that asked "what year is that?"
i responed "what do you think it is?"
he said "i know its a supra"
i laughed its a great head turner! esp to the cops lol no tickets yet!

but i'm goin to get a supra front now cause i'm not really diggin the way it flows
i mean yea looks good but to finish the front supra look i'll need a supra front bumper

U beginning 2 sound like me. Nobody liked my rear till I did it.

[Digndoug]

Ok the 7th gen rear looked nice, but I mean are you doing the tailights an all? cause I dont think that will look that great.. but who knows.

[playr158]

nope i said JDM TAILS
with a 6gc/7gc hybrid rear
meaning i'm only using the bottom 1/2 of the 7th gen kit rear

[Blakout16]

anyone remember that camo 7gen and 6gen a while back that looked really weird or something... they used a 7gen front whole body on a 6gen car... looked weird, but looked alright and was in japan... neone remember this?
