Okay... the car is almost done on the exterior. I still don't have my rear tires so I still have my stock 16" rims at the back. I should be getting them from Dunlop very soon. I have gone to my garage about 10 times now just to sneak a peak at my new car. Here are some pics:

And with a body that wide, the wing on the APR Celica really completes the look.

Looks awesome. Only thing I don't like it is the black overlay on the hood.

The hood is actually carbon fiber from CARisma. I had the two sides painted with the center exposing that it is a CF hood. It looks great in person.

That may not look good. The NSX yellow is a very orangey yellow, and it already has a yellow pearl in it. IMHO, if you go custom color, why not go to something that is NOT found on a factory car?

wow just like the first red celica one...now the only thing you gotta do...is keep the stickers OFF! NO STICKERS. i dont care if they sponser you...put it on a sheet of paper...keep your car clean!

Sorry bro... doesn't work like that. Unless I want to loose my current sponsors and want to pay for the rest of the stuff I want for the car, I will need to put stickers on it.

i think u should go with a stealthy black look for a widebody celica. u know, midnight black paint job, tints, black rims, black tail/headlights. it would look amazingly nice. but thats just my opinion.

for a body kit as extreme as the APR the stickers will fit in just fine, in fact i think it looks kinda naked without them, especially after getting so used to seeing this one:
http://www.aprperformance.com/images/products/PC070607.jpg

my only gripe with your setup is the wheel gap, but i guess thats unavoidable considering how low to the ground that body kit already is, i wouldn't advise you to go any lower.
Only alternative would be bigger rims, but you're already runnin 19s, so that prolly wouldnt make much sense either.

what kinda wing you puttin on there anyway?
car looks ill man, keep the updates comin.

get the APR GT300 wing. THat wing is made for the kit.

BTW: the carbon fiber/kevlar that the APR GT car has is on sale for 1200 for the seats and rails. Anybody interested let me know.

Richard can you take some more shots from the back when you get the wheels on. Personaly from the shots I've seen so far it might look really good wingless.

Latest Pictures from a photo shoot. I had to put my right front wheels on the left rear for the photo shoot. My tires still haven't gotten here yet.

the red one is lower especially in back.
drop it a little more:)
RADR1732
08-10-2003, 09:19 PM
The reason why it looks a little high is because the other side of the car has my stock 16" rims mounted on it. It drops the left side and lifts the right side a bit.

Man, your car is absolutely SICK! I LOVE IT! Those rims are tight. And it does need to be lower, but as you said once you have all 4 rims and tires it should fix that problem. Nice work.
