Oh yeah, I used to have white cp-035's, hence the white and blue interior. I bent 2 of the white cp-035's pretty bad and picked up a set of bronze cp-035's for a hell of a deal that I had powdercoated "black chrome". I'm at a crossroads as to whether I should leave the interior white/blue, or should I do all the white in black and sport a black/blue interior? Whaddya guys think I should do?? Oh, I did the interior myself, so it isn't no big deal to change the colors.
looks aweosme, but i think i would prefer Kam sides aswell as a bit of a lower drop! But very awesome!
What you don't like the Molly designs sideskirts?? I kinda like the Kam sides, but I don't like how they look like they'd shoot missles out of them. Plus everyone has kam sides with their kam kits, I wanted to be a little different, but still keep it clean. Oh yeah, the drop is eibach sportlines for now. I'd go lower, but since my car is daily driven over the summer, and here in central PA our roads suck, that's the lowest I'll go. Heck you should see my front bumper now from scrapin' and stuff since those pics.
Heh, I was surprised someone noticed. I've been wanting to pick up one of those up for a while now, but finding one ina junkyard or in decent shape proved nearly impossible. Does anyone know what generation celica that emblem was put on??

1988 celica supra
Actually, in '88 there were both a celica and a supra, 2 different cars. Anyway, the emblems were put on early 1st gen celicas, basically from about '70-74 st's and gt's. Here's a pic of an ST front end:
Of course!! I try to put nothing but authentic parts on my celica. Actually, the only thing anywhere on my car that is a replica would be my C-one "style" hoodscoop that I bought years ago.
Your interior is awesome! Please give me some info one how you did it and what you used to do it
The interior I did myself. I sprayed a product called "SEM color-coat, over everything. It's not to bad as long as you prep everything super well, but this isn't a novice mod because you first off, have to remove every little part of the entire interior to do it right. Plus the whole prepping and spraying process takes lots of practice and work too get it to look good. I'd say I probably have about $300 total in supplies and paint and stuff to get it done right.
Whaddya think guys??? Repowdercoat the wheels white, redo all the white interior to black, or leave it the way it is and focus my time and money elsewhere??

I looks very good already and doesn't need to be lowered anymore, it's perfect. The white rims look good, but the color you changed them to looks even better. The color they are now has a great contrast with the blue, better then white. The interior may take some getting use to, but all in all great job on it, looks professionally done.
Your car looks awesome, very clean and everything flows nicely. Gosh those Racing Hearts look so good on the Celica.

Black and blue interior. Keep it dull black too. I personall dont like a gloss interior. But that's up to you. Keep the rims that color but get some center caps. Did you paint the old school emblem or was it that color already? Also wut did you use to paint your calipers? They look glossy. Also black out/tint your clear side markers .

Center caps for racing hart cp-035's?? If i knew they made them I would've gotten some, but as far as I've been told, they don't make racing hart center caps for the cp-035's. The emblem isn't painted, that's the way it really looks. My brake calipers were first painted with brake caliper paint, but I repaint over the original paint about every year to keep everything looking good. I just spray regular cheap spraypaint (krylon or whatever) over the brake caliper paint to get a decent color blue. Most of the blues that they make brake caliper paint, just don't look right to me. At least from the caliper paints I've seen and tried. Oh and about tinting the clear corners, I've thought about it, I just haven't got around to it yet.
Damn man your car is sweet! The only complaint I could even come up with is the rims look close to stock but everyone else seems to like them and if you like them then thats all that matters. What color are you doing the interior. Great car
