Hi all.
Love the idea of this site, dedicated to a generation of Celica's and their owners. I have never been into Car's (even though my Dad was a racer, mechanic and started the Morgans Owners Car Club of Australia when he was alive), but now I had to get a new car, did the research and came to the conclusion I wanted a Celica, bought a 6th gen and have been driving it for about 3 weeks. Loving it. I am now itching to personalise it; to make it unique and MY car. So.... I have a stock basic 99 Celica. What can I do ? What I have done is: installed good quality blue wipers blue tyre valve caps tinted the side and rear windows (just did that yesterday) multiple little interior things like floor mats, etc. What I am thinking of is ways to effects its look so its not so ... stock standard. I'd also wouldn't mind a little bit more power too, but nothing crazy; I am no mechanic. It seems to have a little bigger wheels then standard, 15" 205/55 I think. But good quality tyres with lots of tread left, so I will stay with them til they die. Anyway, just saying "hi" great site, glad I am here! :-) |
