    I bought these twin cam 16 stickers to a friend but I think we need to resize them,they're a little to big in my opinion :/

    Thanks Fernando!
    Kev for now im not paiting the wheels,but I plan painting them,gunmetal or dark bronze!
    Yah Sean I agree,the OEM have 5cm height and these ones have 6cm,only one cm but its a big difference,I'll make smaller ones soon!

    BTW Im working 12h a day,7days a week from now to the midlle of September,so unfortunatly Im not going to have to much time for the Internet,but I'll try to update the thread if something happen!

    Very nice now that's what I like and just one small change you maybe do is get smaller or nicer wheel nut's those are big and ugly
    keep it up.

    i like the bigger wheel nuts! the "twin cam" portion seems stretched vertically, but the horizontal size looks alright.

    I like the wheel nuts Fernando,and they lightweight xD
    Yes entrax the twin cam sticker is streched vertically,its has 1cm more than the original one!
    So I found the wheels were made by Enkei and they only weigh 13 pounds each,very good!!!

    They suit your car very well. And the good weight makes wonders to handling.

    Very Recaro - that's a good thing in my book!
    I would have embroidered "CELICA" on them in red too

    Thanks!!!
    Kev I love black with red stitches,I have them on my shift boot and door panels xD
    They feel great,they hold very well,the seat foam was all replaced,the guy showed me the old one its all like sh*t xD

    Thanks Stig!!!I thought about it (celica embroidered on the seats) and I like the idea,but for now I like them very simple like this :p Maybe one day if they need some work I'll do that!!

    how much?
     
  19. celica_gt-i

    celica_gt-i Well-Known Member

    200€ for the seats,door panels and rear panels!Note that all the foam was changed in the two seats,and the back of the seat was upholstered too,with leather!
    Kinda expensive,but I think that values the money when I look and when I sit in the celica :D

    Yeah, if the seats are bad it gives a "worn-out" impression of the whole car, new seats = new car feeling
