I have an 02 gt and am trying to come up with a couple mods.I already have 18 inch wheels,kazuma exhaust,and tyc taillights.What do you guys think would be a good looking mod for the stock celica body?The revmotion front lip at the ecelica store,a wing/spoiler,or maybe an invader hood?Let me know what you guys think would be the best mod without buying a full body kit.

I prefer the BRS Hood, its much more agressive... and it had a totally different style hoodscoop than what everyone has been playing with

I think this is what you are talking about. the first picture is at a bad angle, and the second picture is blurry. but at least you get the idea ![[Linked Image]](https://celicahobby.com/photos/download/13381-5/200206-bluebatmobile-025.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://celicahobby.com/photos/download/56231-4/20020421-sema-auto-salon-137.jpg)

Great So now Im left with one more decision, I kinda wanted to paint the hood white (car is spec. blue), but Im not sure I want to do that seeing as how it looks good as is.

That hood is tight. I think that it would look better regular carbon fiber than white on a spec blue car. What exterior mods do you have. If you do this, you should have other white exterior mods such as wheels, and maybe like blue hood spoilers.

I am planning to get white rims, but If I keep the hood Carbon Fiber, I might just go with gunmetal.

I heard somewhere that if you spay some paint over the Carbon Fiber hood and let it drop down on it, it would give a nice colored carbon fiber look. I think you would have to clear coat it also.

I would say Limited Slip Differential is the best mod for around $1000. And believe me I have just about everything out there...
