looks great. where in cali are you located? are the side skirts even with the front lip?
 
the side skirts look about even with the front. I'm in Santa Maria, North of Santa Barbara.
 
looks good

any problems with the doors opening ??
i had a small problem with my BC2s -- i had to trim the part that goes under the door in order for the doors to open and not touch the kit --
 
Not yet, but I have only temporaraly put them in place, have had them on for a week and no poblems, but I will need to use more double sided tape. I have a big probelm with the lip, the double sided tape WILL NOT hold. I have changed it at least 5 times so far. I'm glad I haven't painted the lip yet but after I do, I'm going to need a better way to adhere it to the car. Got any suggestions?
 
suggestion ---->
if you havent allready --- on the underside of the lip, you need to lightly sand it where you are putting the tape -- my urethane lip seemed to have a slippery residue but after i sanded and cleaned it -- it held fine -- just my 2cents :)

I would mold your front lip to the bumper like mine....

soon 2 B painted

I have removed all the parts from my car and will be painting them this thursday. OMG, She looks sooo different with out the grill, eyelids and body kit.
 
fiberglass isnt difficult to work with just a pain in the a$$ and tedious if you want it to look nice. Mind you be careful cracks easily. Ive crakced my kit twice already after the paint :( Sucky but thats what I get for doing what I do to my car and driving it everyday. Molded lips look nice...but theres a chance it will crack along the seam if you hit something. I cant wait to see it all done.
 
Thanks for the tip Joelene, I love your car. Sorry to hear about the accedent. What does it look like now? I've seen your car posted on many threads, looks great, btw, your "FINE!" Sorry, couldn't help myself. (wow) :)


I should have pics posted by this weekend, depending on how long I let the paint cure and if I have the patients not to install them to soon.
 
Got most of the parts painted. The front lip needs to be repainted, got fish eye all over it, SH$t!!! Here are some pics of what is installed so far. The color came out perfect, the guy at the paint store said that over 50% of the blue color is from pearls. I also recently installed Celica clear lights on the sid
