Idrees Posted August 14, 2009 Author Posted August 14, 2009 Thanks guys! Fighter jet, lol yeah some people think it moves like one too! Bumper won't be getting cut out I'm afraid, I will get it all painted as soon as I can though, hopefully spare some time this week. Along with a new wing mirror due to a flying object smashing mine on the motorway! Quote
scot-ish Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 looks good this, had a wee discussion with you earlier i nthe week, bout not cuttin the bumper, when i got the cooler and manifold, glad you left it, looks pretty mean with just the grill therevery tidy car, too many toys inside, i'd never drive it, id just sit the the FC controller pretending to be playing on the wii haha Quote
Sparky Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I just mean cut the number plate surround bit out it looks much neater Quote
bucketep91 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 I just mean cut the number plate surround bit out it looks much neater i agree with sparky Quote
Idrees Posted August 15, 2009 Author Posted August 15, 2009 Thanks guys. I'll see about the bumper later. Quote
Steve GT Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 looking good budquick question....was it hard doing a quad light conversion on your gti really want to do it but it involves a hell of a lot of cutting doesnt it lol Quote
jonnygt Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 lokking good mate nice little project you have here Quote
Idrees Posted September 2, 2009 Author Posted September 2, 2009 Cheers guys. Nah the Quadlight conversion isn't a lot of cutting, it's a fairly easy job in my opinion.I found this guide very helpful, take a look. http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34762 Quote
Idrees Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 Just a few more parts I've gathered before I start working on the bodywork.Optional Toyota Spats & Sideskirts (Genuine)Tom's Replica GrilleNew bumpers (Clean ones with no cut outs!)I've changed my mind on the front spats now though so will be going for a front lip instead.Gave the grille a super quick paint job in Matt Black as I didn't see the need to colour code it just yet, and then a quick wash. I'm not far from getting everything I need to get the ball rolling with the bodywork. I fancy a Livesports front lip and spoiler, and a late spec tailgate. Then I'll see if I'm up to the task of a respray! Quote
bucketep91 Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 looking good mate latespec tailgate sounds like a good idea:> what colour you got in mind? Quote
Idrees Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 Midnight Purple or some sort of Grey at the moment. I'm not saying anything yet though. I was supposed to paint my old one grey and it turned out yellow! Quote
bucketep91 Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 haha so its gonna be somthing in your face i take it lolgood stuff cant wait Quote
Idrees Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 Nah on a serious note this time it won't be, pretty sure it will be something dark and mean this time round! Quote
Sparky Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 Glad you got another mk2 bumper mate look much better in my opinion mk3 tailgate and Livesport spiler will finish it off nicely!!Not a fan of the Livesports lip though Quote
Idrees Posted September 8, 2009 Author Posted September 8, 2009 Livesports lip is always been one of my favourites!! We'll see how it looks! Quote
BoostJunkie Posted September 12, 2009 Posted September 12, 2009 much did you get the oem rear spats for ? much are they from toyota ?doe anyone know the part number ? Quote
Sparky Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Doubt they are still available from Toyota mate Quote
Idrees Posted September 14, 2009 Author Posted September 14, 2009 I've got a spare pair of rear spats, genuine Toyota too. PM sent. Quote
Idrees Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 I decided to get me some new rims to give the car a bit of a change, happy with the outcome. 15" Rota Grids in Bronze wrapped in Toyo Proxes T1S.PHOTOBUCKET IS BEING A BITCH, PICS LATER!! Quote

Idrees Posted September 26, 2009 Author Posted September 26, 2009 I think the colours work well too Phil. Quote
Sparky Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Wheels look good mate, I actually hate the look of the front of your car though, just doesnt look right in my opinion of course Quote
