IMO they look gay, unless you have a black car

Yeap, go to the dealer. I agree with Jotan. Should cost you between 110-150 bucks

i was just wondering, because a couple of days ago i pulled a little bit too far into a parking spot with a concrete block in front of it and scraped the front end up a bit and instead of fixing it i wanted to hide it. My car is red and i was just wondering if it would make it look gay. If anyone can find a pic of a red celica with a bra on it, it would be much appreciated.

Check the rotating pictures on the home page, thought I saw one there. It's on page six of the pictures.

I had the front bra for my car but I now keep it off. If your interested, I can sell you mines for really cheap. I only had it for about 7-9 months. It does go for $130+ at Toyota but I'll sell it to you for about half that. Email if you interested RandyHFong@hotmail.com

FriedRice asked:

I think the bra looks pretty good on our cars for a car with a bra. definately cars look better w/out except on black cars of course. I have one but only use it on highway trips. they should make color matched bras!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the same bra on both cars. I kept all of my accessories from my first Celica and put them on my second one.

I got the OEM bra brand-new in the Toyota box from somebody on here that didn't want it. I think the dealer threw it in for free when they bought their car or something. Anyways, I bought it for $75 I think.

It fit really snug the first time I put it on. There are a lot of little hooks to attach it with. It didn't take too long to put on though.

Oh BTW I don't think they fit the '02's because they come with a front grill from the factory. It will fit the '00s and '01s though as long as you don't have a front grill.

I think the bra is ugly.. IMO, don't get it.

clear 3-m bra is absolutely the best bet. unless you want to cover up paint damage. more info here: http://www.celispeed.com/installs/3m_bra/index.asp

i am getting a bra but only for when i drive home on the interstate, that's when i get chips from dump trucks and huge as* bugs, otherwise i am going to keep it off for local driving. toyota paint sucks in my opinion. i have had my celica for 6 months now and my front bumper looks like it is 10 years old, no joke.

If you wear a bra for too long, you get tan lines.....

The paint will fade at a different rate underneath the bra. Won't make a difference now probably, but if you have the car for 3 or 4 years it will.
