think u need to take them shades off because your no sein wot every1 else is!

wots with the white door handle?u really really need to remove the black paint from the fogs and rip that splitter off dave, i dont even fit rite!

chill your beans dudes, its early days yet :) he hasnt been on here that long. try reading some of his post instead of looking at pictures, every time you say something looks crap, he says hes getting around to it. not every one has the time and money to do everything to showroom spec. we are supposed to be incouraging the noobs not giving them shit because you dont like what they've done. go buy a honda and join civic life if you enjoy giving people shite jeeeeeeez!

rant over

Bit of a nail atm pal,lets hope U can save her.

he will :) i have faith :p lol

thanks Ryan :) appreciate that.

it is a lot harder to make a glanza rep then a lot of people make out on the forums and I do appreciate everything everyone has to say i know its a bit bad in places but I've sorted so much bad shit out and I will continue to its just hard when your on a budget I do want my glanza a mint one but it doesn't happen over night and i think its good that you can see progress its not just n/a to perfect glanza I do love my car but at the end of the day its a learning curve because I've never done anything like this befote yet everything I've done I've done myself and funded it all myself and i know your not disrespecting any of that but its very sad, everytime i post an update It just makes me sad and is very disheartening when im so enthusiastic about it like. sorry for rambling I know alot of you are just trying to help and you are because I do need a push in the right direction sometimes because you lot are more experienced than me. so I thank you all for that I just want you to know that i am trying my best i just get lead astray sometimes because i get so exited about it, so im sorry for that. rant over. thanks to anyone that took the time to read the essay lmao.

Thats why its a project dude :D I like to see progress made over time! look at my old n/a thread davey, She was multicoloured for a while :D Did i care? naaa, still went to shows everyones top and its always banter xD especially when she was on standard springs, 4x4 on track xD

As for experience, you gain it when you either break something (parts wise) or fit something wrong :p Ive done it plenty of times since ive owned my starlets, keep up with it and she`ll look exactly how you want it! dont let people saying 'looks crap' to dishearten you, if you wanna be different be different! weve all got our own personal twists to our cars.

Looking 1000000% better with the glanza headlights bud!! I was the same as you about a year or two ago, on a student part time wage budget haha! Id suggest some engine mods to the 4efe to give her abit more grunt and power after youve sorted how you want the asthetics to look :)

keep at it dude!

thanks redz11 :)

yeah when i first started up on here i think your old build thread was one of the first that i read and was inspriation for me to do a glanza rep :) because ive always had alot of love for the glanzas but never really knew it was possible to swap all the bits over to get it looking like a glanza.

its just getting the confidence to do it. but even when you have a front glanza bumper on thats a completley different colour to the car your like, ive got a glanza bumper and it looks amazing!

like you see what people dont see. like when i look at my car i see it as what it will be like when its done i dont see it as what it is now and think yeah i like it. i mean dont get me wrong i love it at the moment and im so proud of it no matter how tatty it is in places its mine and i love it to be bits and would honestly cry if i crashed it now.

but yeah im glad you understand what its like and same to you ryan :)

and im not singling anyone out on this forum i know all the people that have said bad things about it are only trying to help! and there not really bad things about it, just what i need to do to it to make it look nice :)

but yeah thanks guys, it will get there one day. lowering springs+front bumper resprayed proffesionaly will help alot!

then fucking spray that door handle black! not white!

and as for engine mods ive got a corolla mani that i really want to fit just not too confident about it yet. im sure i can do it its just gaining the confidence i have all the gasgets etc and the tools i need just scary ahah.

Thanks guys :)

Also. Amber indicators are back on, not sure if i like them or not i think i just need to adjust to them again its weird putting something old back on :p

and i got rid of the side window tints which i think makes it look alot cleaner :) plus you can see the stripped out rear better too ;)

A lot of harsh comments in this thread. Some are just bang out of order

Theres a fine line between pointing someone in the right direction and ripping the pish.

What ever happened to unfinished projects?

Looks like a cool little project to me keep the updates coming!

Fuck everyone else mate, It looks like your heading in the right direction to me, Glanza reps don't happen over night and your getting on with this allot quicker than i am my black one so fair play to ya. As you have also said its a massive learning curve for you and i agree with you there because i didn't really have a clue what i was doing when i first started my old glanza rep, it even had a black bootlid on it for months! Im sure you will tidy all the little things up and get her looking really good soon matey. :thumbsup:

cheers mate :) and yeah i may be doing it quicker but i wish i did take my time with a few things because they would of looked alot nicer and save me the hassle now of taking a step back and redoing them. but oh well its all part of learning ;)

she wll be looking good soon dont you worry! lowering springs and bumpers sprayed proffesionaly will be a huge start!

getting there from when you started man. still think you should lose the stickers and lip, but it's looking a lot cleaner and the black and red look nice! maybe some jdm rims in the future, but worry about that drop for now! wouldn't recommend sr springs as they're all gonna be rusted to fuck (evidently shown by the advisory on my mot) and you'll wanna go lower. if you wanna sell them clear lenses let me know!
