i think this looks great with one minor change, in that big opening in the middle it would look better if there was a lil something in there , such as the black plastic that the stock bumpers come with ( the 3 or 4 black things), or just a black mesh grill. open holes look to hondish |

That does look very nice actually. Nice doggy, real nice. I think that kit matches the Celica nicely and complements the lines without all the riceyness of the Invader. I think that should be the kit |

Well.. the turns look like they could use some work- a decision needs to be made on what turns to fit in there (IE, OEM celica, OEM supra, etc etc)

Its definitely exceptional work - better than I could ever do. Here are a few thoughts: I think the basic design of the front rocks. Simple, elegant, curvey, racey, sexy. Could we incorporate the fogs without cluttering up the design?
As for the sideskirts, they look different than your original sketch. Are you planning on further work to the sides Doggy? If yes, I would say simplify the bottom and make the ends slightly more aggressive like your sketch. These are just my opinions - I hope they are taken in the manner they are intended - as constructive ideas. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

Well since i honestly havent seen any better kit, THIS one has my vote.
 Unless Romas has more tricks up his sleaves?  David {edit} Im not a fan of fog lights, but i guess they could go in the little vents at each end of the mouth. But not to far OUT nor too big. Well if i put fog lights on (i wont) thats how i would place them. This post has been edited by ToYCeLi8: Jun 28, 2004 - 10:31 PM |

LOL cover the side vents and it looks like such a huge smile. Doggy you do great work, it looks nice and simple, I think the smile itself needs to be changed a little, because now it just looks so goofy after thinking of that...but I guess that's just me. As long as we think of everything that would need to be incorporated into the final design (possible FMIC, fog lights, gt4 hood scoop etc.) then we could make this functional as well as a great design. Keep em comin doggy! |

looks good doggy! Im against adding the GT4 vent, How about another vent. Like the vent on the vw concept car. We want to try and get way from the gt4 look, because if you want that look, its available from different manufacturers including the seperate vent. I say go for new ground. Can anybody photoshop the edonis car? thanks guys

Well, few more shop's here. As you guys wanted, i added top vent, added some metal bars in the cetral opening, and added some sort of spacers in the side vents, and changed the turns to a supra turn signals. And finally added some halogens.
Here ya go: 1.  2.  3.

I like the last one the best.
I would be down for the front bumper cover if it is polyurethane. If you guys get fiberglass I think everyone is just waisting their time! |

The last looks good. That just might be the one! I would love to see the edonis bottom end also.

No bashing - I'm just given my opinion
I dont like the gills in the side vents. Reminds me of a R34 kit. The GT4 grill is too much. I personally wouldn't have it in there. However, like madmods said. Maybe move it up and add the Toyota emblem in there like the VW and maybe it would strike gold. The bumper with the fogs looks like a less aggresive version of the Buddy Club 2 kit. WHICH I LOVE! so, its get the  If possible doggy to take picture two and make 2 more pictures. One without the GT4 grill and one with the grill moved up with the toyota emblem and fins like the VW. I'm just trying to see different aspects of what this kit can look like. Keep up the great work Doggy and others. |

I love that doggy, I would definately buy one of those for sure. So is it Supra clear turns? What about the addition of foglights? And another thing, anyway to get the smile to go away, maybe some fangs on the bottom or something?
