I think the Curren front end looks too much like a Honda Accord circa 1994, but I guess anyone that is really into Celica's would recognized the difference.

I've been getting that a lot i've also heard camry and AE101/111 levin. Also I finally wired the headlights in it looks awesome now I just need to get some 8000K HIDs.

to 808celica, what you're saying would look nice. when it came out of the shop most of under the hood was color matched so there was some over spray on to the fenders making them look red/pink so I had to rattle can it just for now until I can get it all factory red again.
