not a fan of the painted wheels or the sticker over the damage, but its your car and it seems like you'll take good car of it! what are your plans for the car? do you have any maitenance recipts from the previous owner(s)? how well does the engine run?

i went to the local junkyard and grabbed the celica lip, the fitment its very close and the lip looks good but it is too damn high for my taste. the lip is over 4 inch. high, imagine if the car is lowered. oh well i guess ill pass on this lip.

on the s5 bumper, if i go with this lip, i got to fix the gap on th center (not a big deal really) . and i got it for 15 bucks. well im still deciding to put it or not, but right now, as you can see, the car needs paint more than a lip lol

i think the rims look better black (even though they are phone dials), and the lip looks pretty good as well
