This is what happens when u get 2 part numbers the wrong way around.


Recommended Posts

As you can see we ended up with a Celica Sportivo rear skirt. The general dimensions are the same and could be fittted with some shortening around the wheel arches and some cutting around the back. However, since it is ABS plastic and not fibreglass, it makes remoulding alot more difficult. But damn it looks good on there.

What is remolding exactly?

cutiing the wheels arch section back then moulding a new section to fit it on the inside of the arch so it looks like its meant to be that way instead of just a hack cut. You can usally do work like that using fibrglas with no probs.

Is it possible to do it on ABS plastic or is it only for Fiberglass? Who usually does those things?
