its not bad....you just have to slide the lip back onto the bumper. good as new. its a 20min job... no shop work required

if danielle could post the far away shot...the skirt is either cracked or paint stressed...but it does look like it could be slid into place

[emocrab]

damn that sucks. good luck

Playing with cars gets to be a frustrating hobby. Hope you get it fixed and all that jazz. Just don't get frustrated, happens to all of us.

Automatic powa!!! :headbang:

:D I understand how you feel about your car though. I've had so many hit 'n' runs on my car, I just kind of let it slide off my back now. Heh...

[lamboceliGTS]

that wouldve happened regardless of what car you had, keep the celica and buy a lip kit ;) . plus winer will be over soon.

I have an extra fog light for you N/C

[91EclipseGS]

[TRD StreetRacing]

I have an extra fog light for you N/C

which side scott??? please say passanger side :gap:

[j.celica]

alright well it looks like damage is a little more than i thought.. i got on my hand and knees today and tried to put the lip back on the bumper... i noticed.. the under plastics are all f***** up :(

good news... i will be getting help fixing it...
bad news.... no lip/body kit... and i cancelled everything i ordered because i was going to get a new si.. and now im keeping the celica.. so now i have to re order everything :(

[91EclipseGS]

danielle needs the passenger side fog

[HiOctane]

The weather up here is the main reason why I am getting rid of my Celica, that and I'm getting to old for it.

i thought i was the only one, i also hit a block of ice/snow and, broke the lip in half..
