Externals/Body Starlet

[Britishbeef]

Getting a starlet as i love them, but im looking to do some mods to bring it out. The engine and power will have to wait a while as im currently 17, which sucks...

Ill be getting a white one as i do love the colour but the type of starlet is very wide... looking at upper 1990's models like the sportif and gls, my dad was a long time ago a toyota salesman and said that the gls was the best of the non-turbo range, not entirely sure if this applied to the whole range or just the ones in lookers northallerton at the time.

Looking to get this body kit ( http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index....showtopic=32269) Only problem i think is the rear which im not entirely sure on... price seems good so for the moment i think thats sorted.

I've looked around for quite a while but not been successful in finding some fog lights to fit, the links to parts i found had no pics and im too skeptical to buy pictureless items without backup from froum members.

The other kind of light i have had the same trouble with was to try and get front and rear clear indicators/headlamps to help match the image, i see lots with them but no clue as to where peoples sources are!

Another thing i need some help with is that ive been brousing around for other body parts and found stuff i really like, such as overfenders and glanza bonnets. There was a guy i mailed who said the glanza bonnet didnt fit his sportif properly which made me kinda question whether or not there were other issues with fixing bodywork from the glanza/made for the glanza to a gls/sportif.

Many thanks

Jordan

P.S Im not trying to be lazy and research items for mei just need a bit of help to get me get up and running

Welcome mate im only 18 myself and mad on starlets lol

First of all welcome, the best N/A Starlet Toyota made was the SR model.. (A bit bias but oh well )

And the question about the Glanza bonnet is you would need to headlights and front bumper for it to fit. Some people have modified a bonnet to fit but not many people have.

[joel_ep91]

the best n/a starlet would haave been the gls 100hp engine surly? but that didnt come in the shape of starlet your looking.

welcome tho and enjoy

Out of the N/As the CD/GLS/SR are the best trim wise

all come with rear shelf speakers + rev meter

CD+GLS come with sunroofs as standard (optional manual one on the SR)

all have front electrics

GLS has a cloth interior + chrome bits

If you want a body kit youll have the initial cost of getting a glanza bonnet + headlights then your choice of skirts/spoiler/bumper/rear bumper

Welcome

For the glanza bonnet to fit you need the headlights and bumpers to match. No need to change the wings.

Thank you

If you buy an OEM bonnet and headlights, the front bumper on the link you posted will fit without an issue. The sideskirts and rear bumper/spoiler will also fit without an issue, I'll add some more photos of the rear to see if you like it any better.

welcome to the club dude

take a look through some of the n/a build threads, get some ideas flowing

[ryan lang]

welcome bud, sportif ftmfw haha (not biased) :/

glanza rep is easy enough, just gotta keep your eyes peeled for the parts when they pop up

alot of quality glanza reps on the site for you to get inspiration from

Welcome!

Welcome man! Great choice of bodykit for the Starlet, even though I am not a huge fan of the rear either. An alternative to the JAM rear, you could get the Glanza bumper with optional splitter. Its a nice looking splitter but wouldn't match in with the low-ness of the sides and front, but it has been done and does look good in my opinion.

Theres plenty of info around the site so keep digging through. Theres many Glanza reps in the N/A rides section and quite a few kitted Glanzas in the Glanza section too. Keep an eye out on the Dark Room > Picture Catalogue threads on the Glanza too, to get to know what bodykits look good etc etc.

And on the clear indicators front, main source would be Toyota. They were the late spec Glanza indicator units.

And last but not least, enjoy your stay!

Thank you so much, a lot of info on here that i can use, big big help. And again thanks for the warm welcome. On the rear bumper side, how different is it? only noticeable from close inspection?

Id-workz Jam style rear..

OEM bumper with optional splitter, I sell these too.

Welcome to UKSC dude, where you from?

[Britishbeef]

Thanks for the pics, would you be able to supply the oem bumpeer as a package instead of the Jam, but as part of the package deal or would that interfere with stocks? Looking at the bumber from that angle it has grown on me though! everytime i see starlets with care put into them the love for them grows!

@Liam_D im from Thirsk originally but living in kirkbymoorside, selling my motorbike to buy the care and additions before i get all my test done for next year, where-abouts you at?

welcome 2 the forum man enjoy the starlet way of modding lol oh n this forum is a great place 2 start all the guys on here are great lads n lasses.

[Dan507]

Wrong...all of you, the best N/A Starlet is the Glanza S ^^,

And welcome :harhar:

[Ryan5793]

Welcome to the club. :rtfm: As said above, glanza kits bolt straight on. The best rear end for any EP91 in my personal opinion is the oem glanza spoiler and rear bumper with lip.

best off luck finding a starlet :harhar:

[Craig_N]

What Dan said :rtfm:

And buy my S :harhar: £2200

[Dan507]

yeah, jims and craigs, jims craigs ans mine are the only Glanza S's i know of in england......and mines the only red one!!!!1111one

[Ryan5793]

insurance on a UK N/A is bad enough let alone an Import! :harhar:

[Liam_D]

Insurance on a S just isnt gonna happen at 17

Get a UK spec N/a matey they are immense for a first car.

[Britishbeef]

Hopefully... my motorbike should be gettin sold in the next 2 weeks, i'm just double checking, were i to get the glanza package deal from ID, will these fit without the glanza bonnet/lamps? If not someone mentioned about modifying the current bonnet, is this an expensive job, or is it just too much effort?

Thanks
