well you gotta do some mods to the black one first right, ie, for the i/c.. but once that is done, it will still be black I guess... and you could just put it on and see what you think

I think either will look cool.. but personally I probably like the white, but the Black, though is origional at least for a Celica.. if not origional in and of itself

actually first it will be going on as a straight bonnet for a little while, when I get time to build up my fibreglass bulge then I will put the scoop back on, don't know if that will be before dubbo though. a straight bonnet is moving back into the sleeper category, time to blow people away while they are not expecting Laughing

GT4 front bar came on the halfcut I got the 3SGTE out of.

Apart from the lower lip, what is the difference between the st165 front compared to a st162 front, ie. are the popup lights different?.

yeah its just the bumpers diferent with those little side wings to curve it round, the grill has a GT-FOUR badge instead of a toyota badge, and the steel bumber weigh a fuck load less, at least 5 -10 kgs, plus mountings for the fogies welded on the back Very Happy SR TWINCAM acctually did a photoshop job on a pic of my car giving it a panda loo, wasn't too bad, but I can't be fucked to do that, too much work.

Yeah it'd be the drifter that can't drift Laughing Laughing Laughing

I think I have more street cred currently, everyone around here seems to know my car

I'd say black is a little ricey..

But I do prefer it better though. If you can stretch out for it, get a real carbon fiber. Leave the eyelids white though.

Better yet, hit autobarn and get some carbon fiber paper!!

heheh..

personally I'd leave it white cause of the rice factor.

I think u should go the non-rice factor mate. Go back to white.Sure, the panda look would be pretty cool and original for a celica, but im still voting that tarting up cars is a waste of time - make it go and handle before u take car of looks - No dorifto kings in a FWD celica mate!

yeah am am kinda leaning towards the white myself, looks more smooth. carbon fibre would be a whole other story though, carbon fibre bonnets look good anytime, cause it's not just plain black, has that pattern. as I mentioned earlier I am not much on rice, but I do like eating it Laughing Laughing

Ohh and she already does go and handle, she's not going to get any better unless I do a turbo and internal rebuild, which won't happen

by the way guys,

u can drift in fwd (maybe not stock celica's) but it is done in japan with civics etc just as fast as some of the d1 cars.

depends on how ur car is set up, and mow much $$ u can waste on an old celica. my money is saving up for wen i finish uni and get real job so i can get somthing ncie liek a honda s2000

But then again, black aint that ricey..

it could be said to "reduce sunglare" while driving on circuits and stuff!..

but seriously.. I'd hit the carbon fiber paper.. probably cheaper than to repaint too! Smile Smile just don't let anyone know about the rice trick Smile
