it looks pretty much complete.
maybe an antenna, doesn't look like you have one.

and another sparco seat for the passanger. in my opinion, it looks kinda weird with only one after-market seat. some may argue its only for the driver anyways. so its preference. 8)

btw, did you paint the endcaps of your wing black? or is that blue bat's vinyl? i'm still waiting for my vinyl...its been over a month :wtf:

[CONTROL ONE]

paint your headlight housings like mine, either gun metal or black

[Piotrov]

Pete,
I painted the side covers for the spoiler. Figured if i paint the rear might as well paint them too.
As for the seat ill probably get the secound one mid summer. The damn bracket is 3 months for deliversy.

Grant,
I dont think i would want to rip my headlight apart.
I mean it has crossed my mind and i would really want to do it but
heard alot of problem become from that.
how did you get yours done?

through 10 hours of painstaking accuracy. i swear to god it was like a science. patience is the key. these aren't something you wanna have to replace if you mess it up!

turned out absolutely flawless though. ask anyone who's seen them in person. no condensation, no runs/spots/bubbles/ etc

[Prafull Koli]

get 19's :popo:

[brandon6976]

grants did look very nice

[Piotrov]

HAHA well i have to say, Pacience is not one of my strong points.
My biggest problem is that i want to get it done right away and then i screw something up. so i guess i wont even touch the lights :D :D

[Piotrov]

Hey Grant! that looks awsome.
Do you still got them? Ill buy them off ya :lol:

[CONTROL ONE]

thanks for posting that pic b! sooner or later i'll have my whole collection back, lol

i'll do it for $100. i'll even fix it for free if you ever get condensation.

[CONTROL ONE]

they're actually sold to PHD, sorry!

[Piotrov]

Did you say you will paint them for 100?
cuz if you did then you got yourself a deal!! :wink:

[CONTROL ONE]

ya, it takes me around 8-10 hours to complete (i put 3 coats on due to the heat of the headlamps) and i reseal them with my own silicone. that also includes the price of paint (which is expensive b/c you have to get high heat type)

find 5 ppl (4 more) and i'll do them all for $75 each.

[CONTROL ONE]

90 for 3
75 for 5+

includes
-paint
-reseal
-all labour

[Piotrov]

Thanks man!

[ieatglue]

hear Bat makes a smoke overlay for the headlights. May produce the same effect as grants lights without the risk/time.

[B-WRX]

Piotrov, your car looks Hot! Just get some black rims with a polished lip and IMO look amazing.

Yea i know but rims are very pricy esp with the tires.
Anyone know any good place that i can get rims for under 2000? posibly with tires.

[white_rice]

Piotrov I definitely think you should get your headlights done in black instead of gunmetal since everything else on your car is black/red.

Not only that but black would also give it the JDM look!

You know what you convinced me. I think later this summer ill be looking into a Carbon fiber hood :D Looks alot cleaner.
BTW: Your fogs are in the mail :lol:

[Prafull Koli]

get it kitted...or is it?

[Piotrov]

get it kitted...or is it?

Got the TRD kit on it.
Its the Panasonic celica.

[Prafull Koli]

nice...you gonna slamm it?

[Piotrov]

I did last summer but i hate going into a mall and before i enter the parking lot i have to look around for the best entrance cuz of the speed bumps or even just pulling into pplaces like gas stations or tim hortons.
Gotta remember im out in the country.
Georgetown dont have great roads

[brandon6976]

what sorta drop did you do ?? like 1.5 or say 2" etc etc

[Piotrov]

1.5 but it was too low for me already.
Just hate the scraping sound. :D
That sound feels like someone stabing me.
it just hurts

[Piotrov]

What do you guys think?
Sould i paint my rims black like here?

http://plaza.umin.ac.jp/~satoshi/pic638.jpg

or just leave them gunmetal?

[brandon6976]

weren't you mentioning you already painted your rims and it was sorta chipping ?

[Piotrov]

weren't you mentioning you already painted your rims and it was sorta chipping ?

Yea they are, thats why i was thinking if im gonna paint them again i might go black.
Or if i find another place that does powder coating around the GTA.

[brandon6976]

are they chipping but they got some curb rash or just plain chipping ?? there must be a way to make the paint stick

[Prafull Koli]

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww..don't paint them blac...keep 'em gun metal so we can at least see them....

[Piotrov]

Just chipping.
Im not sure why its chipping like that.

[Blue Batmobile]

Your car looks good. Got anymore pics? How about smoking out yer taillights with my v14 smoke kit :wink: .

click on his link for regular retail prices. applicatin as easy as 1,2,3.
Peel stick, and GO!...you gotta clean the tail lights with a non-abrasive liquid like Green Clean or something, allow to dry then peel and stick.

Pete00 had his done and it looks wicked...not smoked,just regular.

[Piotrov]

Sounds interesting. i would be interested in this

[Syn]

Just chipping.
Im not sure why its chipping like that.

If your wheels are chipping and/or peeling (that is, the actual rims and not just the paint you used), there was a chemical issue with 7th gen wheels. Many wheels have been replaced and sent back to Japan. You may have one of the bad batches. Most have been replaced under warranty, but it's not something Toyota has told dealers to openly admit, or issue a recall.

[Prafull Koli]

We can fix your little rev limiter problem this year along with Prafull's! :D

[Piotrov]

Gotta see how my budget is in the summer

[Ti Chuot]

Don't know if anyone has mention it, but get a raised hoodscoop since you have a TRD style hood spoiler. :thumbup:

[Prafull Koli]

werd...I gotta get mine stil.. : (

[ieatglue]

Ok Peter, after seeing your car, which gives me a chubby, I'd say all you need to do is get a cf hood (to match your spoiler), loose the hood spoiler, and perhaps...

ready for this? It's a little strange but tell me what you think....


spraypaint your muffler in gunmetal like your rims..

and then I'd say your done.

[brandon6976]

that would probably be pretty cool if done right .. keep in mind you have to get some high temperature paint. probably same stuff you put on your calipars

[Piotrov]

Yea i like your idea John!
the FC hood is coming. I want to get the same one that Brandon is getting but its not available here yet.
I like the idea about the Muffler however like Brandon mentioned
where to get high temp paint? All i need to pain is the tip so not alot is needed.

Thanks for the Sugestions!!

Canadian Tire. Look for 'High Temp' paint, or 'Manifold' paint. Or go to a performance shop and pay twice the price. :)

[Piotrov]

They have Gun Mettal hi tep paint in Crappy tire? Cool ill check it out today! Thanks

[brandon6976]

come to the meet at 6 we'll walk over again and check it out :D
