Recommended Posts

Hi all, you will hopefully be seing a lto of me in the near future.

I am about to buy a 1997 Celica 1.8 ST, Black, 59000 Miles.

I will hopefully be gettign it end of this week. begginging of next.

and i have 2 weeks until modified nationals, which i already have a stand spot to fill...

I am planning..

VeilSide Replikit + Spoiler

Sprayed and Fitted The Kit

Tints

17" Rims

Slammed

Full Through Powerflow Exaust + De Cat

Underlights

Carbon Fiber Internal Retrim..

Carbon Fibre Bonnet

Clifford + Remote Start

Snooper ( as everyone should )

And i have just under 2 weeks to get it done..

Now most of it i have just about sorted. rims tints etc...

However i really need help with the Replica VeilSide kit, and the spraying / fitting. Also if anyone knows a company that will fit me a cliford for a resonable price. that would be great.

Also i will be paying store price for most of the work i am getting done. so if anyone had get trade rates.. or anything cheaper. all information woudl be greatly appreciated.

I know i am diving onto the forums and already askng a lot. but unfortunatly time is the big issue with me.

i hope you understand :D

Thanks LOADS in advance

Well Dan, welcome to the club matey. Good luck with your project and we all wanna see photos of what you achieve. :thumbsup:

You gotta be so careful when fitting kits though. Not all of them fit flush as soon as you whack it on the car and time is needed to get a perfect fit.

Don't rush something that should be done with time and care.

yeah, perhaps rushing to get a 'show car' wouldnt be the best approach - after all, if a job's worth doing, its worth doing right...

On top of that - I'm not a fan of underlights, and think you should reconsider those - and save yourself a few quid..

Also, replica kits generally arnt as well fitting, and well built as the original - are you sure you want to blow all that money on something that could look, in all honesty, cheap and nasty?

on a side note - our GOLD membership would give you access to a lot of discounts, some which you may find useful...

As said by the others - rushing is a sure fire way to spending lots more ££££ than you need to.

Do it once and do it right. With 2 weeks to go I would forget it and plan the work to be ready for the next big show.

Is it really worth having a bad job done just so you can fill a space on the stand?

2 weeks no hope,you probably wont b able to book it into a bodyshop that quickly ,let alone have it sprayed.

take everybodies advice take your time and get it right,if a jobs worth doin then do it right.

in my experience 2 weeks is very optimistic!

especially with body shops, I was told 2 weeks and a month down the line nearly I gotit back... no dis-respect to the body shop, they did alot of work.... I agree with everyone else... dnt rush it m8 coz ul have a mint car at the end even if it dus miss the nationals by a week or so :)

if you can be garanteed a spot in a body like 2 weeks before, thats half the battle :thumbsup:

as for alarms, i was quoted £200 to remove my standard 1, plus £400 to fit a nice clifford... I assume these prices vary tho area dependant! stuff like that over here is expensive for sum reason!

hope ya get it all sorted m8!
