Ah right sorry! Looks like it's dented inward on the pic
If it was my car and i was getting it wrapped especially, I'd take a rubber mallet and cloth to it. Lightly of course, just try to level it out slightly!
But i'd definitely go for the shark fin, unless you want an S2000 style aerial which i've always fancied, too much work but haha.

If it's bothering you that much you could try one of those dent removal suction things... I find them to be more hassle than they're worth but, never get a good finish and a bit of a gimmick
But because its on the roof, nice big solid area might be worth a shot?
If you are going for an aerial i've always thought they shark fin style one's are nice!

Did you see mine at knockhill mate? Like Wickie says, the size of the plate isn't important, as long as the clearence between the letters/numbers and the acrylic border is legal, and the font is in the correct size!
The square / import plates look good, and if you go to any automotive shop eg. Halfords they'll make up a perfectly legal one for you.
Hope that helps

I didnt want to cover the clock, being my first time working with wrap i didnt think id manage. I cut a triangle out following the shape of the dashboard
But after working with it, i think i could have managed well.
Like everyone says take your time and get it to a level of quality that you are happy with!
Heres mine with the triangle cut out ans door not covered:

I work in Halfords and to be frank, like keef-b said, the led ones that we stock aren't very good.
SMD LED 501's with built in resistors tend to be of the brightest best quality, but are slightly more expensive.
The resistor is required for more modern CANBUS car computers, since regular led's don't provide resistance and the system thinks a bulb is out and tent to flicker and bring up errors.
But in my experience the SMD 501's tend to be brighter!
This kinda thing!
Hope that helps

See I get a wave off a 6th Gen owner in my local town, but there are loads of celica's in my area... Just all driven by old grannies, literally, there is a woman at my church with a 190 and she is 72.
Feel sorry for it probably never driven to it's potential!
I do still wave / flash other Celicas, just makes it more embarrassing when you don't get a wave back and it's someone older than your Gran driving it
Powersteering Fluid question
in General Celica Discussion
Posted
Power steering fluid is a type of hydraulic oil, usually mineral based. Most modern Transmission oils are branded as transmission and power steering fluid, since they are essentially the same, with the Celica ATF, automatic transmission fluid or specific power steering fluid can be used.
