Thanks guys. I hope i can get everything fitted. The sides fit in there but have gaps along the doors. And the rear bumper doesn't fit all the way on. I havn't tried with the front yet. Hopefully we'll get everything fitted tomorrow. And have some pics up. If not then somtime this week.

Nope only if you get the gt-4 c-one front. I have the 5th gen PCP turns. I bought them from PCP they are gonna be put in there.

o damn... was hoping to put gt-4 ones on it... any idea if it's because the opening is too thin, too short or too wide, too long for the GT-4 ones?
5th/6th gen ones need modificatiosn too right? so i guess nothing fits in it without modification?

Well they are 404 sides and VIS zyclone front bumper. And also the 404 rear lip.

sideskirts are getting molded on.
The 2-post spoiler is also getting molded to the blocks.
rear and front are just getting bolted on and the bodyman is supporting the front bumper to where i can hit a curb and it will just chip paint and not break the bumper. can't wait till the end of August i'm hopeing August 24th and it will be finished, and hopefully going to its first show in September.

Do you guys think that the blocks molded to the wing would look good??

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

celicaracer! its going to look hot man! my mate has the same setup although he's front bar is modified without the middle section between the highbeams and middle sections under the side vents.

Also got the turn signals modified to fit the 94 turn signals. unfortunately hes got problems with that exact same rear lip. so he's going for something else.

Hope yours go aok. keep us updated -R

Thanks dsrt-FX Don't worry everythings going to fit perfectly. The guy that is doing all my work made his own custom bodykit for his 92 prelude. i'll have to take a pic of it. his sideskirts were hand made by him, and the front and rear were also hand made by him. very good customizer, I'm getting everything shaved in the back (antenna, 3rd break light, wyper & sprayer, and all my badges.) i'm going to put the one that says Toyota on the front bumper and getting rid of my window banner.

I will keep everyone updated on this thread.

Thanks guys there chromnium black. I honestly don't like having a diff color hood then the car. I really think i'm just gonna paint it. The only reason i bought it was because its a lookalike GT-4 hood. And it goes with the bodykit i have. So i don't know what im gonna do yet. I bought the hood from VIS and it was about $500

Ok. I got a question for everyone now. My bodyman wants to take that bar that goes in the center of the opening out. And put two of them in there. So that the license plate can be in the middle of the front bumper but behind the mesh. I would just like the plate to be on the left side of the bar. But he thinks it would look better done this way? What do you guys think?

Here is what my bumpers going to look like. I photoshoped it.

Yup now that i look at it i think thats how its gonna be the two beams on the side, and then the plate right in the middle. But the plates going behind the front bumper and the mesh. i really can not wait till i get this done.

x2, off center plates look weird. I think your best bet is to keep it centered. symmetry is beauty.

Your car looks hot though, Just make sure your bodyman makes the liscense plate look like its suppose to be there, and not just thrown in there cheaply, or it will hurt your cars looks greatly.

just my 2 cents, Josh.

It will be bracketed with metal. Behind the bodykit. I'll get a picture of how his is on his prelude and show everyone. You will barely be able to see it in the first place, just because it will be behind the mesh. But i'm going there tomorrow and seeing how far he's gotten.

Well i'm still waiting for him to call me to take the whole car in. Was hoping it would be in by now. But he's still making the support for the front bumper. Will let everyone know when it goes in and have progress pics. So everyone keep an eye on this post. wink.gif

That is the EURO front lip for the GT-FOUR, the EURO side skirts for the ST202, and I'm not sure about the back.

Ok well the car went in today. I will be taking pictures of the progress. The hood i decided to paint it red also. I like my car all one color. Unless my car was white or silver, then i'd keep it CF. But everyone will be updated with progress every other day.

Well went to the shop today to look at my car.
I only got a couple pics of her, but the sideskirts
are molded and the front custom crash bar is made up.
Plus he has steel bars that are going to be flush behind the
bumper to support the whole bumper.

You can see the bar where the crash bar used to be.

IPB Image

this is a pic of the sideskirt molded the the car. He has to wait
till tomorrow to finish molding it.

Well in the front there is your big frame in the middle, that also has a little round peice. I usually jack there. And with the bodyman doing all this custom stuff. He is extending that frame bar to go all the way to the front of my bumper. And in the back i use the middle of the axle.

No them two bars are just connected to the bumper. The bumper origanally had one bar in the middle. Like the pic on the 1st pg. Then he cut that one out and made two on each side. Behind the bottom part of the bumper is a steel bar that goes all the way around the bumper. And my crash bar is that big bar on my car. My license plate hooks to that crash bar and will be behind my bumper and mesh.

Hopefully this picture helps.

Just got back from the bodyshop. Got a couple new pictures. Found out that This Friday my car will finally be finished.

This first picture shows how the front support bar is made.
The little bar in the middle is where i will be able to jack my car up from,
and also sits lower then the bumper so if i hit a dip it will hit that bar instead the bumper
IPB Image

This picture shows the sideskirt finished. They are both molded to the car.
IPB Image

ENJOY!

Well was supposed to get my car back tomorrow. But went out there today and they are not quite done yet. I have a couple pics of the passenger side, skirt, Its completely molded to the car and that whole side is primed and ready for paint. All he has to finish is the rear lip, and shave the holes and finish with the wing. My camera is messed up so hopefully tomorrow i'll get them two pics up.
