I know it is different, some may say not even pleasing to the eye "Why not black?". I gotta be different in some way, that's just me.

[NGHTKD]

although the red isnt my taste i can def appreciate the work/money got into it.
it still looks great. st205 parts FTW!
aslong as your happy champ!

Thanks, I had a feeling the red isn't going to be a favorite. But if people get the black blocks and the rest of their car only has black tires as far as having black goes...... Why not? I dunno if it is noticeable, but the blocks are the exact color of the rims.

[GriffGirl]

Not my thing either but I always appreciate continuity and individuality

[Jaws4God]

I like the idea.. but think you'd need more red to pull it off... here's a couple rough ideas I had:

[Random_Stranger]

Thanks for that. I still need a lip kit, so I might consider that red. Then again, I think it just takes adjusting. Ever noticed how a white car can have a black hood, and black blocks, but that's all the black it has and it is acceptable? The eyes are not used to other colors. That's how I felt about my rims and I ended up keeping them and now people in my town try to copy me by the majority of them getting red rims. Seriously. I never thought I would get so many compliments on them as well.

I will give it some time. I still have yet to get my crew logo (my sig without the font) on my car.

[j0e_p3t]

have you thought about painting your brake calipers red too?

[Euphoria]

that red stripe down the middle would look good!

[BloodyStupidDave...]

that red stripe down the middle would look good!

Urg, no! Looks like the A-team!

I quite like the red. I think painting the silver/white bits of the wheels black would be an improvement. Also, perhaps a darker red? Might be interesting to do a photoshop of the bonnet grille and upper bumper grille in the same red also.

Brake calipers are going to be anything close to chrome, or possibly red as well.

I think it looks perfect as is - but then again I would

LOL Thanks man

[samir0189]

I think this looks good dude, i think the main problem im having is i normally see the blocks black or color-matched (on non black cars), and to see it not black on a black car, its just different. Not bad different at all though.

I do agree that you could use some more red on the car though...

[playr158]

no offense but all the stuff jaws posted = puke

I LOVE the way you have it now besides the raiser blocks, i think they should be black.

That's great, but who cares about length of membership when it technically comes down to basic respect?

[Random_Stranger]

^^^ Both of you need to simmer down. This is MY thread with my strange looking choice of riser blocks, yet complete GT4 exterior (whoops, forgot the fenders). If you guys wanna argue, you can message each other about it or put it aside right now.

I'm not arguing about your car, I'm arguing about the ignorant comment he made.

[MaskedMan]

Hey Faust, have you looked into getting some sideskirts? Also, where are you located at? I figured since we never get to meet (ever) that during one of my trips down south I will be able to stop by for a photoshoot?

[Stambo]

I like jaws last idea but have the entire top half be red. Eh?

[Akirad1]

i kinda like the red it just going to take some getting use to

[Random_Stranger]

Nah it's not like that man. I know you and plyr just spout out at the mouth and hold nothing back, which is what i love most about you guys. I know it isn't about my car, and even if that were the case, I can care less. I am just saying, after a few posts of you two going at each other, just move it to private messages. I was like that when I first joined, and I ended up being friends with the guy I thought I had a problem with.

I just don't like to see people fighting on here is all. You all post very frequently and it is nice to be drama free on a cool site. That's all I am saying.

I am in Bakersfield, CA on the way to Los Angeles pretty much for you. Call me when you plan on heading out and let me know in well advance so I can join you. I think it would be awesome! I blew too much on my car this year. But yes, I am looking into side skirts (I have the TRD replica rear skirts) and a Eurou front lip. Basically it will look much like Kloudkicka's ride. I like it very much, but with my own colors, because I have to be an individual (aside from car body style like his).

i kinda like the red it just going to take some getting use to

That's exactly what i am saying. I had the same feeling when I got red rims, and now everyone is copying me in town. Regardless of what everyone says......... I am proud to say NOBODY, has a GT4 like mine. Others may look like others, but NOBODIES looks like mine. Which is why I did this. I don't play with vinyl, but if I did, I have an idea of my own.

that's a hot car..

personally i think its screaming for a body kit/lips/extensions

spoilers really hot tho..




one thing tho im so over paranoid when driving my car cuz were i live you cant Evan pull into walmart without scraping...

but i know were your coming from im trying to go unique myself..that's why i got that hunkin spoiler and the invader kit with the rear extensions(that i haven't received yet)

Hey thanks man. Yeah I mean a clean look is cool, but I have waited all my life to finally modify a car. Now that I made due with what I have (celica, would have opted for something else), and having the most individual car in town with people staring at it like it fell from the sky......... I love it! Regardless if people love what you or hate it, the reaction is usually the same. You got eyes on you, and in my eyes that is all worth it. So far all has been positive, I have Supra guys trying to get to know me, I have people telling me how hate celicas but they love mine, it's great!

Thanks for the comment and post pics when you get your stuff installed so I can check it out. Yeah a lip kit is the next big thing, or the swap. I gotta see how it goes. If I end up with $1k to spend, then yeah the lip, but if not and I have more by Summer, then the swap. Because I still need a paint job.

[punkuup5150]

strange idea but have u thought about painting the "grill" insert where the fogs would go the same color red? uve got the red on the sides and back but not ont he front time to rounf it out lol ill break out photoshop and see if i can come up with somethign for yeah

[gt_driFFter]

I like everything about the wheels EXCEPT for their fitment. They look more tucked than stock wheels! Correct wheel fitment makes all the difference in the world!

[99Celica]

I think a red lip and red side-mirrors would help out mucho. grats on the celi

[punkuup5150]

ok so i couldnt get the color right on the red so i fugred to play around with the paint lol hope u like if not i at least had fun for a few mins while putting it together i went a lil extreme for most on here since u seem to liek things above the norm enjoy

[terbear4god4life]

lol^^^^^ silly people

[playr158]

I wonder what the car would look like with your side mirrors painted red to match.

[Akirad1]

hey ill trade you my red mirrors for you black im going all black and red i think id look cool but i dont think it would be worth it since you still have to get it painted to match the color of red you have.

[Random_Stranger]

hey ill trade you my red mirrors for you black im going all black and red i think id look cool but i dont think it would be worth it since you still have to get it painted to match the color of red you have.

Nah it's cool. I don't care what everyone else says about "It Needs More Red". If anything, I have an idea of how I would do it if I did, but so far for now, I am keeping it. Everyone else locally digs it, and I am content with it as well. Like I said, if people have black rims (or any other color) and black is not part of their color scheme, with black riser blocks or a black hood and it is looked upon as acceptable, then they just need to adjust to it. This is out there, and even if the color choice isn't pleasing, I still have what people want. It's not like I got an oversized aftermarket spoiler that people wouldn't normally touch and tried to pass it off. I simply stuck to my color scheme in ways that others do, just not the same choice of color.

The red blocks look weird to me. I think the whole car would flow better if the blocks were black. The wheels are ok, though they do take some getting used to. Not bad at all.

[Random_Stranger]

Just to add to the comment about the offset on my wheels......... I just found out they are +48MM and 17x7. If you know what rims would look close to mine or look good and give a more aggressive appearance with correct sizes, let me know.

[j0e_p3t]

do the spoiler blocks have the "gt-four" writing? you can try painting the blocks black and keeping the writing red. and get some red emblems too.

[playr158]

just add a ~8mm spacer to each side in the rear and you'd be set

[Random_Stranger]

Yeah says GT-Four on sides. I want to get those black. SO they have to be painted? Well I want to keep it but honestly I see what people mean about the wheels. I think wider tires wider wheels would look nice, but I like this look too. I dunno what to do. Because if I get new wheels then I will paint the entire car black.

THank you! That is the kind of response I was looking for! Not "Oh you need wider wheels" but not offer any way or suggestion to remedy this. THANKS! Was really looking for that.
