thanks scott but its ok i dont mind the bashing its just everyone else on here is either body kit dropped wheels or everyones trying to get the 97-00 front bumpers and all that jazz thats why i simply flared my 92 bumper ya'll talk about heritage this and that ya'll cant even accept what year your car was made in... you have to try to up date it with newer bumpers off of a newer year sc or put on body kits... isnt that taking away from the car???? look at the aftermarket widebody's they completely remove that sexy body line out of the fenders and the rear quarter so everyone who says i'm taking away from the body of the car needs to go take a better look at the other wide body's. not mad or anything i guess its my fault for posting bad pictures of my car and i most deff. dont appreciate someone photochopping my color off i spent months looking for that perfect color. its just my camera phone doesnt do the color justice i'll try to get better pictures so people can make better judgements

Yeah man definitely take better pictures. Lose the Celica... I don't think we really care what the Celica looks like... haha

You make a good point about people not accepting the year their car is made in... Like many have said... if you like it more power to you. I don't think anyone is making personal shots at you, so don't take it that way.

I'm gonna stick up for another Z30/ZZT231 owner here. I might not agree with his style, but it's his car and he can do whatever he wants with it.

Personally think it looks bad, two tone don't look right on this car. The pink is just a bit too wild of a color to put on ANY car.

I really like your custom console, get a real camera and take more pics of it.

It's not hate brother, it's people speak their opinion after it's asked for it.

That in dash console does look good there, but the quality of the photo would obviously take away any little dents or scratches around the screen, but who cares anyway... that touch screen is a cool set up!

And as I said before, the car on the outside looks terrible. Once you get those new deep dish wheels on, it should look better, but if your handy with the spray paint, i'd turn it all black
Just my opinion :P

If you guys cant play nice and stay on topic then nobody can play at all. This is the second warning. Third warning gets you a paid vacation.

alright, well... you wanted opinions...

the color does not fit a SC at all, but even if it did:

the two tone cutoff line is at the wrong spot -it should either be with the hood line, or farther down the side of the car...

your fender flares - they look like molded on plastic flares (not that they are) but it looks like the plastic stuff the 4x4 guys slap on their trucks as mudflaps... a real widebody kit wouldn't have 4" difference from the side of the car to the edge of the flare - it just looks cheap and like it was tacked on...

the front bumper mods don't look bad, just get rid of that chrome thing

those are my only real complaints...

that's different.............. and 20's???? i think it'll set the car too far off the ground, and throw everything out of proportion... just my opinion!

Why does everyone think 20's raise the car?

Here are 20's is it to far off the ground?

^^

very hot.

Original poster, I give you props for thinking outside the box. It's definitly not my taste at all, but who am I to tell you what to do with your vehicle. The custom work on the dash looks pretty decent, I know what a pain in the rear it is as I'm going through it at the same time.

Perhaps the thing that looks out of place is the stock wheels, get some new wheels on it and i'm sure it will be an improvement.
