id go for Carbon Fiber hood Pete00, it really gets attention, i love the 7th gens coz all of the 2000 and up comes with mag wheels not hub caps  so no need to worry about getting rims... its up to you dude, its your car

I try to get the more expensive stuff first. It is hard to save up all that money again you know.

nahh, get Carbon Fiber hood first. I think your celica looks good with the stock rims so you should get them later. I am getting rims last, right before a sound system. I try to get all other miscellanous things before the bigger stuff.

Well, why else would almost all the street racers live in warm climates, such as So. Cali?  Sunny weather 95% of the time.
