Unfortunately not. Sorry

I'm really enjoying this thread! When I see another Celica in the wild I'm always interested to see who's driving. I'm turning 29 shortly and am a data analyst for a commercial energy consultancy.
A teacher at secondary school had a Gen 6 and always went on about how he was going to get a Porsche Boxter and then turned up with a brand new Gen 7. I always admired his Celicas and wanted a Gen 7 from then on. I finally got my wish 2 yeas ago (nearly to the day) when I came home with Aristotle. We are going to be together until the bitter end!
I only see rudeboyz or old people driving Celicas around Warwickshire
The 350Z is not as useful as a Celica... My husband has one and mine is the sensible car Granted it's probably more fun but I love my car more.
I've nothing left to do with this car though unless I supercharge and unless I'm tinkering I'll get bored
Never been interested in being practical, just fun! My partner likes the practical car, she's after a 5 door polo haha

27 year old Instrument and Control Engineer...
Had a celica from 21-24 then a mini cooper s for a year then back to the celica.
Selling up soon to get a 350z though.

Sold my celica, bought a mini, going to sell this celica, and will be buying a 350z when funds are there.
I've also contemplated going Porsche 911, and while they where nice I still prefer the 350z....

Sky wanted £560, rang greenlight and they quoted me £389. Certainly know which company I'll be using in the future!

I'm not a fan of stretch either...
Spacers shouldnt worry you though.
But getting the right size wheel is always the best option!!

I haven't tried this but read about it before......

Seal sits around the top of the valance in the genuine ones...
I'm sure slick celica won't complain about uploading some shots on here of the new rear end though
-
Parts department unfortunately. Don't think you can order from Toyota online?
-
Can get the rear seal from toyota as well
If you want the templates for the mud guard thingies then I can send you a copy of mine if I can find them!

I've never had any issues though and what if you have it delivered to a neighbour who doesn't check it and you didn't ask it to be delivered to them (as has happened on here)?
The TNT website does say you can make a claim up to 7 days later and whenever I've claimed in the past it's never been an issue. But then I've just messaged the company and they've sorted it.
But was just trying to help people out like booth incase he can't get it repaired or it adds a lot of cost on to it (never paid a body shop before to do work so no idea how much it would cost tbh).
I wasn't involved in the group but but just trying to help out those that have received damaged ones

I don't know if that's what it is but would be good too see pictures before fixed

Always better to give an honest review
BUT.
Just wondering if these are the way its designed. The Rear valance actually comes with two plastic inserts to be attached but the replica wont....

you dont need to check the item on delivery - can be claimed up to 7 days later.
For those that have items damaged that is.

I think your headlights need adjusting. go get them checked.
Wheel nut help
in General Celica Discussion
Posted
if you didn't use it to apply your spacers then you could have some serious issues if your wheel falls off while driving.
Spacers are meant to be threaded in and bonded in place using Loctite.
The reason tuner nuts generaly seize onto these is because of the material that they are made of, usually quite soft as well, have a tendency to seize onto the wheels. that and the Loctite wont have helped!
Not sure what to suggest though. Probably removing it with the bolt then locking two nuts together one end and trying to take the wheel nut off that way.
