[update 10/18/2015] shigexile's Preface SS-Four Options

[Shigexile]

First i wanna say thank you to Martin (Malpaso) for his support. I had plans of doing this before but never had the funding and a problem with the seller in UK for a long time. And then Martin completed his SS-Four bumper and by looking at his pictures, it solved all the probems i initially had. Thank you Martin, you the man!

So i finally got the bumper from UK after many complaining and off i go to the body shop where i used to work during the summer






I got paint and body stuff for a cheap price since i was their best prep guy they had

For some reason, the grill didn't lineup perfectly... but not noticeable

The things i still need to do (exterior wise):
1. Paint the bumper "teeth" back to black
2. Paint my UK splitters silver
3. Exchange the high beams seal because i "accidentally" painted over them
4. Put the rear ss-III splitters on after paint
5. Getting my rims in about a month or so (and tires)









Do you think i should paint the bumper "teeth" back to black? I'm kinda getting used to it being painted...

C&C welcomed

Gorgeous , is that a stock celica colour? it looks amazing, ss-four all the way !! Your photography skills are amazing too !! The teeth i dont know, i think it will look good either way, tho i do like your foggies yellow, gives it a massive jdm feel. What rims are you planning on going for?

That looks killer, I always wondered when somebody would do it with the preface. Why don't you get the teeth covers. It'll look much cleaner. what about putting the little rectangular vents towards the bottom of the front grill in between the mouth and the grill. Good job though, much props

[azian_advanced]

that looks great.. i like how it still maintains the curvy elements of the celica, not as aggressive as the gt-four but looks more serious just with a modest face. i'd keep the front splitters black..

[whatthe]

Yeh keep the eurou splitters black, I like how you relocated the license pate. Did you do some modding on the front bumper too the area along the bumper repeaters to where the stock license plate seems alot more flatened...

damn that hella sexy.. smily face with an angry look

[Random_Stranger]

That is sexy as hell! I see another unique master like Malpaso here! That is so damn sexy! Only addition I can think of is making maybe a custom grill and taking out those middle pegs? But even with, it looks really good. I am really liking what I see.




Nevermind I see it is already pretty much done! I love it!

[malpaso]

Wow... I must say that is amazing work. I'm glad I had chance to help. It looks so different! And you are right it looks good as it is. In this picture looks simply unbelievable:



Definitely agree with painting those Euro splitters silver. But I'm not sure about "teeth". It looks really good this way...

btw.: what about clear front turns and fender lights? (sorry I do not know how you call those outline amber lights in US )

[vincent_doggy]

Paint the fender as well...

[playr158]

looks really nice, I think I side with Malpaso on the leaving the "teeth" silver.
bumper to fender needs to be blended, looks like the silver shades are off.

[Culpable04]

Looks great !

I'm waiting for better weather to have something like this done to my celi.

Excellent work.

[Shigexile]

Thank you everyone for such nice comments

whatthe: Yeah, its the stock silver. I did clay bar my car prior to taking these pictures. Plus the lights in the garage brings out a little blue tint to it. And about the rims I am getting a set of ADVAN RCII 17x7.5J +35 in silver. The flatened out bumper in the front is explained below



trdproven: The rectangular holes was the main part of the st204 bumper that was throwing off the alignment so that is why i had to eliminate that part.
Actullay trdproven, i used your picture to make a photoshop image of this concept lol thanks, you had the UK splitters with preface, side skirt, 17in rims and the exact angle i was looking for.



malpaso: i couldn't of done it without you! The front turn signals, i want to keep them amber so it will look more stock (plus finding clear bumper lights are hard for the preface celica) but i might consider the fender lights

vincent_doggy & playr158: Yeah i have like 3 to 4 shades of silver on my car right now as well as 2 different vin numbers BUT i am planning to go BLACK or a LEXUS SILVER in couple years so till then this will do

nice work. Who need body kits these days ? Keep it up

[manphibian]

Woah Shig, that looks amazing!

You've done a great job, i love it!

will look even better with the painted splitters

[Promasta]

those wheels are super hot

[zero07]

Sick job I love the bumper! Car looks good cant wait to see it with rims!

[trdproven]

Shig, you made my car look good, why couldn't you photoshop it into real life. JJ. Im gonna use that pic and tell my friends thats my car now. haha I was about to say those rims look like mine until i looked at the background. But indeed the grill and the hood makes a huge difference - changes the look entirely, you put the preface bumper to good use.

i know right lol. Good thing i didn't invest in a body kit. This is so much sweeter and unique.

Woah Shig, that looks amazing!

You've done a great job, i love it!

Thanks luke! Yeah i think i should paint the splitters too but there are some ppl saying to keep it black. I'm considering both right now. We'll see we'll see... leaning towards painting them like you said

those wheels are super hot

Can't go wrong with ADVANS

Sick job I love the bumper! Car looks good cant wait to see it with rims!

Me neither

Your car is already really great One of cleanest ones out there. There was something about it that attracted me to your car.

[spolski07]

you know at first i didnt know what to expect but my god, this looks amazing!

[trdproven]

I say paint the splitters shig because its not like its a lip they are seperated, plus when I painted mine because I ran it black for a lil bit, it looked more better, it becomes part of the car.

[Shigexile]

yeah, i decided to paint them because like you see in the picture, you can't see them enough to notice them. If it was silver then at least you will notice that something is there...

[presure2]

looks good man!

[Shigexile]

looks good man!

Thanks manny, you helped me out with the wiring of the projectors remember?

[trdproven]

Shig how did you do your wiring? How I did mine was pretty clean, I took a 9006 heavy duty harness and merged it with an H4 (pretty much the same as H1). This way I created an OEM looking 9006 to H1 Harness adapter.

[Akirad1]

i love it, looks awesome.

[terqui]

Get the clear high beams when you can bro, it will pull the whole car together.

Still looks awesome and unique either way though.

are you talking about the HIDs? I had Culapable's HID GB on prior to having the projectors and when i put the projectors on i just bought just the bulbs from him. The bulbs and harness mated perfectly so it was a clean swap.

i love it, looks awesome.

Hehe thank you

Get the clear high beams when you can bro, it will pull the whole car together.

Still looks awesome and unique either way though.

Oh, but I DO have the clear highs on... Maybe it looks like i don't because of the glare...

[trdproven]

I'm pretty your stock harness is 9006, well just curious.

[Random_Stranger]

I can't wait for those HI Res photos! MODS HURRY UP AND APPROVE! MY wall is waiting for them!!!!



Malpaso, if you read this, is there any chance you can post more of yours as well? I am not going to copy you guys, but I LOVE them and want those on my wall, Well, in Malpaso's case, MORE on my wall.

Looking awesome -- i really like it.

great job so far! can't wait to see the final results!

[Legit94GT]

I am loving it!!!! I have been waiting untill i win the lotto to spend all sorts of money in my celi and THIS was on the list! I am SO SO SO SO SO jealous!!! It looks really amazing, you did a GREAT job with it, you should be very proud

[Shigexile]

finally had time to paint my rear SS3's

I ordered 199 paint online


sanded down original paint, then primer and paint


clear coat and baking stage
at least 3-4 layers of clear coat but the reflection was sharp enough

you can see the reflection of the heater, good enough for me

due to the bolts that hold these in the rear snapped on me, i used double sided automotive tape.
taking off the old double sided tape was a hassle but finally got it off


from the rear


I need to do something about the duck tail... its not a perfect fit so its lifting up on some parts... double sided tape or epoxy i guess

The color was a perfect match for my rear bumper but not so much with the rear fenders.
As some of you may know, i have a total of 6 different celica's body parts on my car so i have about 4 different shades of silver.
But don't worry, i will be going lexus silver or black in the future so until then, this will have to do.

[manphibian]

Great job Shig

[trdproven]

Just sell me your exhaust you fool. lol.

[whatthe]

Looking really really good !! Any pic of rear side shot?

[malpaso]

wow... this shot is amazing!

[Shigexile]

I just now found this thread... I have no idea where I have been. Car's looking great! Keep up the good work.

when the hell did this happen?

[malpaso]

And why those amazing pictures were not in calendar submissions?

[808celica]

Feb. 11, 2009 For some reason it looks like a Badger to me

needs a front lip

[TiGZ461]

The front end reminds me of the 7g so much. I really dont like the Euro Splitters but hell I think they would look great on your car, complete the look.


Either way looks great, I wanna try this out

[Random_Stranger]

Ay Shig! Why didn't you put these up for the Calendar? Those shots are by far one of the most amazing shots I have ever seen.

Early this year

And why those amazing pictures were not in calendar submissions?

Because i don't think its good enough to be in the 6gc calender. There are many more other member's ride that are calender worthy.

A badger? gee thanks, i don't know if i should be hurt by you saying that or just feel insulted and deal with it.

Yeah, other people suggested a lip too but it didn't look clean with the current choice of lip. My original plan was with one on but dropped the idea since the prototype image on photoshop.
I currently have euro front splitters on now and still need to paint them and see if i like them like that, and am in the process of photoshopping other front lips onto the car.

but sadly, don't have the flexibility of money now. Just bought seats for the driver side not too long ago and spending money on my girl's 7gen to fix it.

I don't know if anyone responded about this already but instead of painting it black Toyota actually has inserts that goes into the teeth. Thats why one of my teeth is silver is because i found out there were covers on them. I've been meaning to take pictures of it. ( don't know if anyone has already done it yet though)

yea they are just covers, regular toyota part number. But shig you need to find the rare magic or euro lip for the preface and then BALLLAAAA!

[Shigexile]

yeah i'm aware about the inserts for the teeths, someone mentioned them to me, but i decided to keep them silver for NOW. (still need to toss my options around)

i already have a photoshop version of the EUROU lip on the car. As of right now, i am 95% sure i am getting one, or try to get one. One concern is that it makes it look more like a genuine st205 and less the SS3/Gt-Four hybrid version hence loosing the "uniqueness". They look so similar that even members on here wont notice its a GT-III (my version of ss-four) conversion without someone telling them so.
as of the aeromajic, it was my first choice back last year when getting all the parts together. I didn't like the look, i thought i would but it just didn't click for me. I also did c-one lip too but that looked just oh so hideous.

i'm in the process of putting those photoshop jpeg up on my blog.

will post them here too after i get out of my lab

I respect that but strongly disagree . You car and you pictures is perfect material for calendar...

[trdproven]

shig the euro lip for the gt4 and the preface look different, much smaller. you'd be the first. the magic lip is big itll look more aggressive if you like it that way.

thanks martin, coming from you is an honor. Well, another reason is that i never took the time to take pictures with the rims on it. If i were to submit the pictures to the calender, it would have to be with the advans on

shig the euro lip for the gt4 and the preface look different, much smaller. you'd be the first. the magic lip is big itll look more aggressive if you like it that way.

here's a link to my page where i introduced the options for the front lip in a timeline starting from last year
but i'll just run through the basics here:

here is a picture with the magic lip. I liked at first but the more i look at it the more i hated it


Then i decided to go with the EURO splitters:


but after doing the conversion, i notice that the front splitters are still to high compared to the skirts and it doesn't show very much. And people will suggest me to get a lip even thou i have these on (meaning they can't see them! too small! need to paint!! or change them!)

and before doing the conversion, i always liked the EUROU bodykit look
so i photoshopped them with the gt-four hood


I love the look and its my favorite out of the choices i have and i am almost certain that i will be buying this (or try to) lip anytime next year, but then again, compare it to the genuine gt-four

they are almost identical.

other issues are that if the lip will go too low compared to the skirts...
in that case i don't mind getting the EUROU skirts either but...

... i'm lost

[TiGZ461]

I love the stance and the look of the 6g with the magic lip, I would defintaly get that to complete your look. But since you don't like it the last lip isn't a bad choice either.





Edit: Strange my post came out as a code

This post has been edited by TiGZ461: Oct 29, 2009 - 4:36 PM

[trdproven]

I don't think so shig, the lip shouldnt go lower either higher or equal. In fact just to let you know the toms lip i have is ~1.5" higher than my sideskirts. Thats why i assume the euro lip will be either equal or higher. But even if it was lower, its best to have the front the lower part of the kit rather than the sideskirts as you mentiond.

[DaCCelica94]

veryvery nice. good work

[mmmchocolate]

ahh i love that ss-four bumper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! agh must have...

about lip... my personal option to go would be this:



IMO this is great design combination!

^^^ I love that old skool pic of my car haha. but see why i changed out my splitters? both types even? I needed a full lip solution. The splitters are never level with the skirts or to the front to the side and never complete.

[Random_Stranger]

... i'm lost

about lip... my personal option to go would be this:



IMO this is great design combination!

I 100% agree with Mal

[MrAyasli]

Looks great!

Clear indicators ?

[robby]

ss-four bumper very like ......malpaso long time no see you .... when will plan go to HK join our celica meeting ?

[Shigexile]

this is what have happened since the last post.

Some things i had laying around for over a year and through out last year and this past few weekend, i have installed just about everything i had pilled up.


1. I finally got around to taking off the bumper and switching out my hi beam's rubber


2. Painted the euro front splitters to silver


3. Got center caps for my advans


4. Installed TRD steering wheel from an ae111


5. Installed TRD quick shift v.2


6. Visited my parents and friends in japan, came home with Laile Beatrush F/R strut towers



7. Finally got my seat rails which took forever, I put in the brixII seat




only thing left is to wash my car... only one car wash this year

Lol, thanks but its a pain to get in and out of that seat.

Damn, fantastic-looking interior. Really nicely done.

Thanks man, i'm currently try to get all the interior panels skinned with cf without the polisher to get the matt-dry look.

its to bad you couldn't make the midwest meet. Either way that new parts look good!

Yeah, i wish i could have went but without the clutch behaving right, i couldn't go anywhere. I'm keeping my eye open for the next meet.

[presure2]

HAWT.
love the steering wheel, and the seats!
how much was the beatrush front bar?

[bloodMoney]

Nice Shig!

I can't wait to see the car again... We'll have to go out for a drink when I get home from school.

Did you keep the TRD rears? I think that a profile shot is in order.... Get out there and wash the car!

[Shigexile]

HAWT.

Got a deal because I directly went to their engineering facility and told them i'm bringing it back to america so for the front + rear i got them for just under $300. initial cost would have been in the $500 range since laile is the sister company of c-one.

Nice Shig!

I never had trd rears, they were ss-iii rears.
I was gonna wash the car last week but i dont drive it anymore and the girl's car was in need of a major bath.

yeah, call me up when you're in town.

[HectortheRican]

My new wallpaper. GOODNESS that reflection looks amazing. Great progress man! I'm really loving the rims! One question, what paint did you use for the Euro splitters? I want to paint mine soon and I'm not sure what to use.

[sunwukongg]

i LOVE this celi. should paint it black, red or white though imo only cause im not a fan of silver haha

[Shigexile]

It feels good to know there is someone out there using my picture and car for their wallpaper, thank you.
I used a spray can from automotivetouchup.com. They have the paint code for our cars. The paint is a little off do to my original pain faded with sun but results are pretty decent.

i LOVE this celi. should paint it black, red or white though imo only cause im not a fan of silver haha

Thanks!
Yeah, a lot of my car buddies HATE silver with a passion. They say its not a sports car color. (Who said a celica is a sports car? )
Love black, it makes our car look so much better but they fade over time and swirl marks are so visible with black. I was thinking about repainting it black but then i would have to paint the door hinges, engine bay, and all the hard to get places that i won't be able to do myself. I want it to be a "complete" paint job (since i don't want the ghetto paintjob where only the outside is painted black and when you open the door all you see is silver...)
White is nice if i had a full kit on and also white gets dirty easily. I'm not at a place where i can give frequent car washes to make her look sharp.
Red? I have a friend that drives a red integra and he's always competing against me so i would try to stay away from red lol.

Reason why i'm repainting the car silver:
Even when the car is dirty. it looks clean.
No extra paint needed for engine bay, door hinges, etc.
I'm repainting it to a Lexus silver so it should SHINE. (yes all CAPS)

please, please, please post your picture in here

[96stgreendemon]

love the car, gives me shivers

[Shigexile]

Haven't posted in months but the celica is at the hospital for the first time in 8 yrs of owning it.
It finally breaks something that I can't fix in the parking lot and this winter is not helping.
Such a bad time to break but it did well for the 8 yrs owning it.

Looking back at 2011, there are still numerous things i need to fix:
1. My carbon fiber wrap attempt was a FAIL. Need to re wrap it.
2. Ducktail spoiler won't stick to the hatch anymore. Thinking about just molding it on there but I still have the EURO spoiler block. Can't decide which one.
3. The fog light's wires caught on fire. Need to re wire it with thicker wires.
4. Still can't fix my horn. Just might buy an aftermarket one.
5. Not 6gc related but my 2002 GTS was totaled. Having a hard time finding a white exterior/black interior IS250 6spd in this area.

Hope 2012 gets better from here on out.

[Neon90424]

You need this horn

[Shigexile]

^ I'll take that into consideration

[richee3]

The silver '02 that was at the meet is totaled? That sucks. What happened? Hopefully nobody was hurt. What's wrong with the 6th gen?

[Shigexile]

My girl was driving across a street with no traffic lights, then a car came and hit the front passenger side causing her to spin around the way she came from.
Luckily she is safe, but the other driver had some neck injury. Her fault since she didn't yield but the guy was speeding. Also he never showed up in court so the ticket was lifted.

That 7th gen have seen two major accidents in the 1.5 years owning it. Its probably possessed. Time to move on.

As for the 204, its electric issues. The alt is done for, and most likely a short somewhere. Fixing the alt is easy but its the grounding issue that is too much work to find (especially with my work schedule)


BTW, I'm thinking about taking some winter pictures of my car in downtown soon so if anyone in the area is interested in a photoshoot tell me.

2. Ducktail spoiler won't stick to the hatch anymore. Thinking about just molding it on there but I still have the EURO spoiler block. Can't decide which one.

Keep the ducktail - I've got a buyer for your EURO riser blocks.

IMO this is great design combination!

What lip is this and where can I get it?

Correct

I love my Bride BrixII and all but I always wanted the stock Recaro SR3 ever since I first saw my neighbor's Gt-Four in Japan.

So I've been browsing ebay even after I got the Bride and FINALLY I scored these:


And before anyone asks: No, I will not be selling my Bride seats.... I plan on keeping it as my office chair or connect it to my Logitech



How awesome is that


Hopefully these will arrive before the Midwest Meet.
