Hey davi. Yeah the Toyo Proxes T1Rs are absolutely fabulous tyres. I have 205/50/R16 on the stivo rims and that set me back 201 each. Also the Proxes 4 are really good tyres too and they're cheaper, like a good 20 bucks a tyre cheaper. Cheers for the kind comments also. Would look better with coils though <_<

Pretty much sanded down the clear coat, etch primer, and wheel spray paint. Its a special paint I found and you don't have to clear coat ;) and it also has metallic flakes in it too :) . Cost me bout 30-50 bucks all up and still have a can left.

These will probably go in when I get a new clutch and fly.

And got a cabin filter from CairFil. I got the carbon filter. They are also Aussie owned :)

Update.

Just got some Topstage eyelids. They are fiberglass if anyone wanted to know.

When I got them, they were not in the greatest condition, even though they are new. Required quite a bit of sanding, and still not perfect.

nice look on your engine cover, are u useing plastic safe paint or a plastic primer before painting cause it might peel off over time, also use fine line tape when masking so u dont get a edge

Thanks mate, but I completely removed the engine cover. Looking for a Celica cover coz it looks far better. But yeah I was using a plastic primer, and it was masked off properly, but I got eager and peeled the tape off before the paint was even dry <_<

those eyelids look hot. I personally wouldve preffered to match them silver.

Where did you get them and how much if you dont mind me asking? i also want a set for my 05 stivo.

Cars lookn good dude.
