Edrick is that suppose to be the new stock bumper. Its a lot nicer than the stock ones now, but not really aggressive enough.

Looks ok, but nothing I'd go crazy over, but I have to see it painted on a car first.

*blech* it looks like someone smoothed out the stock bumper way too much. Not aggressive enough for my tastes.

So it seems it looks too plain !!!

I will have pics of it on a car, perhaps that will be a better perspective.

How bout side skirts? Anything on them? If you had something similar to the molly designs...that would be awesome. Everyone would be on that in an instant.

Edrick:
where are u from...that last name sounds very rare...
anyhow put in on a car and paint it, and then ask...u will see a lot of pips going over for it...its sometimes hard to imagine something....i think i looks good and is something new...so let see it on ur car(tell ur boss, that he needs to give u one painted and so on, to sell it. tell him that prospective buyers want to see it installed...)lol

i like it, its not too aggressive but definitely provides an improvement over stock. i would definitely like to see it on car to see how low it is, but with well designed sides and rear to match, this would be a very nice kit.

this kit would appeal to a lot of the people who get the kaminari cause its aggressive, but not too much, just kinda sleek like it goes with the car. for people who like kaminari, but dont want to get it cause a lot of people have it, this might be a good alternative.

looks aight....kinda like the kam front....like said previously would probably get a better idea with it painted and put on the car

it looks like a less agressive kamanari.. it would look better on the car and without anything in the emblem hole...

I guess I was wrong the sides of the front is very close but the middle opening is the smiley face. Sorry folks...they do look very similar though

I think all trd nose pieces are waaay ugly. Yes this INCLUDES the mechanical bumper. Only thing that I like is the rear, but I like the WW rear and sides better, just because they're cheaper. I like this nose piece alot though. I like the "smooth" look. I believe that's the way I'm gonna go on my car.

:thumbup: clean. looks kinda like the c-one bumper, but without the smiley face :D

hehehee... u guys know I love it. You have to see it in person. When I saw it, it was like MAN!!! I had to sit there for 30 minutes and debate whether to buy it or not. Its a nice clean, goes with the lines of the car bumper. Looks like a nicer Kaminari front.

I LOVE IT!

Well, possibly, but that's where the factory grille/emblem goes....

I think a flat black background behind that grille would come out very clean.

That's kind of the point of the whole thing. It's clean. No fins or gills or other aquatic appendages....Just a smooth, factory/C-One kind of a look.

Well, I'll tell you what, if someone would like, why don't we get a volunteer to come down and have it installed? We'll get them a special price, and get the install taken care of inexpensively as well.

What do you all think?

how much lower if any will that be compared to stock? It looks as if the lower opening is much bigger, leading me to believe that it'll sit lower....Maybe it's just me. If I wasn't so far away, I'd do it. I like it

and does it have a place for the side markers? Kinda hard to tell from the pics..

Looks like a toned down version of the kaminari front. Only without the extra side grills and The bottom doesn't extrude out as much. I can definitely tell the inspiration came from the kaminari bumper though.

I think it looks great, I love that it doesn't have any silly vents or swoops in it.

The Celica looks so good stock that most "agressive kits" really seem to make the car look worse. The closer you can stay to stock, the better a 7th Gen Celica usually looks. Or better yet, keep the body completely stock.

Anyway, good job!

Actually, yes, it is the front bumper from BRS. We are the sole distributors of this kit, and are negotiating to be the sole distributors of the wide body kit(s) once it/they become available. :)

Pricing on the wide-body is pending. Once it's ready for sale we'll have an accurate price for you. Honestly, it is most likely over 1k.
