What's up everybody? Thought I should show everyone what's been going on lately. I've come a long way from when I first started doing stuff to the car so I'll show you some progression pics from before:

A lot of stuff to read (just a forewarning...):blah:

When I first got it (day one...literally):



Then did a few things within 6 months or so:
(S2K antenna, painted GT-S rims, tint, installed a much better sound system lol...and it's not going anywhere this time.)



Yes, these are my only LEDs lightings and I rarely have them on because they tend to get distracting while driving. I also added Lexus Yellow lenses to the fogs with Nokya 2500K bulbs. Tinted the tails as well as removed the emblems on the trunk.




Then upgraded the lows to 8K HIDs:


Did some rewiring of stuff (everything is still completely reverseable too) as well as a few other things:




Upgraded the fogs to 3K Hids from vvme this past weekend (Thanks Bluedragon02 for helping me):


Warming up (sorry for the blurry pic, had to run to get a pic while they were green lol). Only problem is the passengerside HID warms up quicker than the driverside :confused:(Please help me if you know how to balance them:D):



And here's one of my future additions. It's only the front bumper though. I'm going a different route.;) Did a test fit tonight to see what it would look like:




I have a few other things I have to put on that I have in the basement and yes it's getting lowered lol...



Thanks for viewing everyone and I'll be updating this thread.:cool: Please feel free to leave comments and thanks!

That front bumper looks very familiar! How did the fitment end up?
:thumbup:
NICE! where'd you get the front bumper and hood scoop bro?
looks nice though..i really like how it evolves into something so much better by the second! :)
Thank you sir!

I got the hoodscoop from Bluedragon02 when he was switching over to the veilside kit so I got the scoop and the trial bumper came from Donkyranger:D (thanks man!)

hahah man... I wish I documented some of my mods. In any case, I'm looking for a new set up myself...

Trial rear + Trial sides + 03 front + C-One lip
Thanks man! Yeah I wanted to keep track of all the stuff I did hahaa.

^those are very good choices

but im gonna have to say I don't like the trial front lol its so weird? but everyone has their one taste

it was nice to see the progression of your celica! keep us updated
Thanks:)! Yeah, if I'm able to get a hold of a Tsunami rear, that'll be the route I go! I want the rear first though and I'll sell the front.

Hahaa! Thanks a million for sending it man! The fitment isn't too bad but I know a shop can take care of it no problem. The bumper sits slightly in front of the headlights, creating a small gap between the two. No biggie though!

:thumbup:
Thanks Chad!!:D

Yup yup:D I got mine for $30:)

Hahaa, sorry Jon! I'm gonna keep this for a bit:)

Where do you need to put those 2 clips?
The two clips go underneath two holes on the underside of the spoiler and connect to the trunk of the celica hatch.

Thanks Horty! The meet's gonna be in VA Beach but a few of us are heading down on the 5th to enjoy the weekend. Check out the DC metro section for some more details and stuff.:)

Thanks Frost! Yeah, I rarely have them on so it's no biggie. I actually forgot I had them at one point lol.

^Oh naww naww hahaa, they clip right over where the edge of the trunk is. The two screws you see are for securing it along with the 3M doublesided tape. No hole making whatsoever:). The only holes I'll take care of are the ones that have my stock spoiler make. I'm going to get them filed down and painted over.

This meet, open to anyone? I havent been on the road much and am looking for an excuse to take a road trip. 12 hrs seems like a perfect distance as well. Some where to stay would be sick though. lmk man. I'd be nice to meet more celi owners.

That's be sick. I'll see whats going on and let every one know.
^^Cool stuff then man! Just give me a call whenever and let me know!
:drool: brashboy! Thats next on my list. Saving a little bit more so I can send it straight off to paint when I get it.
^Yeah man! I was happy when I saw what it would look like on the celica! I think I'm gonna rock mine black for now because I have tinted turn signals on my tails and my black hatch handle to match with it.
^^That works, I don't have any black accents so I couldn't pull if off unpainted. Funny my car a few yrs back had black accents everywhere, wheels, scoop, etc lol
