Widebody celica Options

[celica101]

Alright guys tell me what you think! I have a guy design this for me, and found a company over-seas to make it for me (price is outta this world and the quality is as good as my old veilside kit). The front bumper is from the APR kit for the 7th gen celica, trd supra style hood, custom skirts, and obviously wide fenders

I like it. The spoiler doesnt flow well with the rest of the car. I'd tell them to design a different one.

Very cool. I hope you do it.

[orvillescelica]

that really looks amazing!! Im not going to even ask about cost, because im sure it is going to be a lot. But it will look fantastic!! Good luck on the endevour.

[snapshotgt]

Not bad...i like the whole "wide body thing", but don't know if i like the front bumper...

~snap

[celica101]

Yeah im gonna go wingless, thats just a stock wing raised up. As far as the cost its relatively cheap for all the work. The company thats makin the kit for me is charging next to nothing to make the kit, compared to U.S. prices

I saw that photochop on clubrsx.com.

[Theyellowdart084]

Wow that has a real mean look to it! I like the widebody, good luck with it dude...keep us updated =)

[ThAixGuYx2k7]

wow. thats incredible!!! i think it looks really good. everything comes together just right. good luck with that man, if u get that...thatll deffinately be one of a kind. people would drive off the roads staring at yur car keep us posted!

[JFrost9]

Id go with some different sideskirts if it were me personally, but the thing looks badass regardless. As far as the front bumper goes i would have the top part (above the large opening) come down a little farther, it looks a litle weird how its such a short piece, but thats just my thoughts. DO IT!

[romeovaj]

all I gotta say is CHING CHIGN!

[CelicaGT04]

Looks good, although it kind of reminds me of a 911 for some reason. But if you got the money go for it! But like DEF said, that spoiler needs to go!

[j0e_p3t]

i think it looks great. i could maybe do with different skirts, but all in all.... pretty hot.

[pandakid]

looks sweet

[omega_vgk]

thats looks great......but get rid of the tail and get either a TRD or and alloy tail... as far as the wide kit goes...keep in mind that the celica everyone wants are all rounded...not sharp corners...the kit would look a whole lot better if the rear qtr panels were more like supra style where its rounded and as well as the fronts...other then that its great that your willing to invest for it... goodluck and keep the celica fanatics informed...GOOD LUCK

[dustinkemp]

that is one bad ass car! the only thing is that the cut outs for the headlights are going all the way into the mouth of the front lol

but other than that its awsome!

[bigal004321]

that is really aggressive..but i like it

Bigal

[Kadett]

I like it, but one problem. You will need to replace your wheel bearing in the back every year. Hub is not designed for that much stress

[Jaws4God]

Love the idea!! Looks great!

my only suggestion is if you are going to go custom like that, don't do a supra style hood, do something ... custom

[celica101]

Yeah the hood is the only thing that im not really sure about. I dont want anything with a ton of vents and stuff on it, any suggestions of a nice style hood? And the headlights arent going into the opening in the front its just shadowed so it looks that way. BUt thanks for the comments and id appreciate any suggestions Ive been meesin with the design for about 2 months now, looked at so many things everything is starting to look the same to me.

[celicurr]

paint the car black, gt4 hood, no spoiler = sex

[bloodrain]

its... different...

[purplegt4]

that thing is crazy

[cg97]

how much would that bad boy cost?

[b1gr3d]

not my taste...no to the blitz front and the skirts are like running boards. rear around the wheels look a lil too " added on"

[qmoney10457]

Man f*@k what everybody else sayz, dat sh^& looks sick!!!! How much was it?

[Celicav]

Very cool. No way you can go with a front bumper that LOW to the ground though lol.

[qmoney10457]

Also where can I find that TRD Supra style hood?

[DeW_H0e_GT]

wow!!! i have a second wife now.....

[hmongtaejien]

Hey did the designer have a higher quality image? Like a larger image? It's awesome.

[speedy]

I like it. It has a 350z feel to it. I do agree with Defgeph, I would have them redesign the wing. Maybe go with a nice JGTC wing with a 135 degree pull back on the bracket cuz the JGTC wings tend to be a 90 degree. But in any case its your car not mine in and it would be the sickest thing around. Go for it!!!

[behindthesmile]

now thats hot.... even though the front kinda reminds me of a 350z for some reason... but yeah definitely unique

[Predator]

wow, that's HOT!

[dustin15brown]

Also where can I find that TRD Supra style hood?

u cant

[celica101]

yeah hmongtaejien i have a higher res. picture.

[richgt4]

Alright guys tell me what you think! I have a guy design this for me, and found a company over-seas to make it for me (price is outta this world and the quality is as good as my old veilside kit). The front bumper is from the APR kit for the 7th gen celica, trd supra style hood, custom skirts, and obviously wide fenders

That looks fugging nice Get rid of the rear spoiler as it messes up the lines of the car. Go spoiler-less & keep the colour.

Keep us posted on wether you decide to go on with the project or not.

[playr158]

looking at teh APRgt3000 kit for the 7th gen....that doesn't look anything like it? so how is that the bumper off the 7th gen?

[devilsden97]

is it just me, or does anyone else think this picture is photoshopped? look at the passengerside fender, the way the light comes off it.....idk doesnt look right to me. But the concept is killer.

[Predator]

lol, as he said in his first post, it's a photoshop and he was asking for opinions to get it or not

[devilsden97]

oh lol im slow sometimes

[hmongtaejien]

How bout this guys?

raised the front and cf/black the hood. took out spoiler.

[celica101]

hey playr158 its just based off of the apr bumper, of coarse alterations were made, if it was the same one i could just use it.

[playr158]

yea i figured, the 2nd redering on bottom of page 2 looks good..but i suggest instead of flairing out the back fenders try blending it up into the top of the rear quarter

[crismillencolin]

wow , its looks like a cross between a porsche 911/350z with celica headlights ! F**kin do it , that would be class. One of doggys small spoilers too

[mozocelica]

looks " Photoshop" to mee, corect mee if im wrong

And why do i see a bigg turbo under the bonnet .....positioned just the way the 2JZ has it...


looks all bull to mee..........but correct me if im wroong

[playr158]

PLEASE READ THE FIRST POST AND ENTIRE THREAD BEFORE POSTING ITS A FREAKIN PHOTOSHOP

[celica101]

Let me try this one more time. This is a design a company did for me using PHOTOSHOP and other various computer programs. I understand it is hard to get to the last post and remember what you read in the begining. The kit isnt made yet, but i have a company that i am working with, getting cad drawings and exact measurement to begin making it for me. I posted here for opinions and suggestions. And again thanks for all the suggestions.

[DeW_H0e_GT]

that is firggin hot better than teh first one.....definetly do it ......

[JFrost9]

Dude this shouldnt even be up for discussion, you HAVE to do this. This thing would look sooo sick its not even funny. Im still not a fan of the hood, just cuz i think there are much better options out there that would make your car even nicer. The whole concept though is amazing. Just dont use those skirts...they look bad imo.

[97lestyousay]

I love the widebody look and there are so few around.
You should do it.

This is one of my favorite cars on the site.
Widebody Celica

[celica101]

Yeah its definate, im gonna have it made. I want peoples opinions before i do it, get someone elses input on ideas. AS far as the hood, suggest something please. and for the side skirts im not too crazy about them either, but i want a vent incorporated and i want it to flow into the rear fender and i couldnt come up with anything else, and again open to suggestions

[97lestyousay]

I would like to see a more oval rather then
rectangular vent in the rear similar to a lotus skirt.
I think it would flow better.

[JFrost9]

the problem with the lotus skirt is it wouldnt come down as far and wouldnt flow well with the rest of the car, but i agree with the circular vent....maybe you could make it to where instead of the vent at the end squaring off and then having the wide wheel well start, you could have the sideskirt blend into the wheel well, kinda making the air vent similar to the style of the front, with that open triangle look.(hard to explain, hope that makes sense) As far as the hood goes go with something simple, yet sleak. im in love with the small continuous raise like the corvettes, but hoods are all about tastes.
