mahon Regular Location: Melbourne Registered: September 2005	Re: 1986 Toyota celica st162 - just bought it! - VERY happy Mon, 17 October 2005 11:52 Cheers dude - yeah I saw a st162 with black rims once (just painted stock rims) and fell in love - it looked great. I just sanded them back, primed them, then painted - easy really just TIME CONSUMING! like any painting... The interior is another story - it was EXTREMELY time consuming. The panels are easy enough to get off BUT THEN... you gotta strip off existing material, then glue down, bit by tiny f'n bit, the vinyl... then the hardest bit - getting the panels back on and looking good. I ended up stripping out the whole rear interior panel to get them back on nicely - the doors werent so bad cos they're quite easy to strip off the car - and easy to put back on... Over all I was really happy with how it came up... To be honest it took 2-3 goes for each panel to get it taught and tight... but yeah it was worth it... I will paint the bottom bits of the exterior white next - it looks great on other cars and is reasonably inexpensive... thanks for the comments - keep hitten em up!
