square or round headlights.....which is better, more stylish Sun, 03 October 2004 10:36 Go to next message
i was wonderin what most people think is more stylish on the ra40 celicas. square or round headlights? im currently painting my ra40 an have both front ends. i think the square headlight bumpers are a little bulky as opposed to the shiney chrome bumper of the make I ra40.


http://img.drive.com.au/drive_images/CasualAds_images/1326912_.jpg
this is a square front end ra40 (make II ra40)

and here is the round headlight front end ra40 (make I)



anyway tell me ure opinion

thanx

I found them & uploaded them, scans of a magazine I was sent a long time ago, thought you might enjoy this worked RA40 (with cressida headlights)

I think as far as stock goes, square lights are better, but there's no question the bumper is butt ugly. Rear bumper is worse than the front, though. If i had the bucks i'd look at getting a custom steel or possibly fibreglass job like Bluewire.

The round ones look like a scared rabbit

The square ones look like a drunk with his bottom lip punched and swolen.

id go with that cressida conversion, that looks the goods!

Dude, I linked them rather than wrap them in [img] tags because they're scans from a magazine... don't want anyone getting in toruble or anything. Have no idea if it works like that or not.
