    Well its going into the shop soon to have the frame fix, and then I'm gonna paint the hood and new fenders after it gets fixed, I was really inspired by the 84 celica I posted earlier tonight what do you guys think?

    image quality is bad, because of my source and I was lazy (1 min mockup :p)

    Nah, this is my project track car, I'm upgrading suspension and breaking first then to turbo/inter cooler after that who knows... :p a friend of mine said the front end looked unbalanced, so I decided to pull some photoshop shinaniganery, too ricy? LOL

    nah no rice there, just give them a taste of the GTE. I like it a lot, but I also like the colour combo to start with so im bias.

    I love it. You and I should do this to both our Celica's, make an awesome team. N/A and Turbo (although my car will be dead worthless until I get a GE)

    Like I said, we can give your car a little magnet that says "Only as a last resort"

    That's alright but you need to put a big red diagonal line right across the hood

    I like the single red stripe the best. The other one is too busy, distracts from the stripe.

    If I can afford to get it in some small rally stuff, I've been trying to find a good place for amature rally, :D Already picked out my tires for the car once I find a place to race

    This car wont be a daily I will be getting a second set of tires for street use, but thats mostly so I don't have to get a truck/trailer every time

    well if you'll be doing more racing than daily driving definetly paint it up like that....otherwise it's prolly a little too much and the cops would be eyeballin you all the time!

    it would also look sick if your car was black and you did it in gun metal although thats more my taste lol
    but that 84 restoration blew my mind
