Yea. You gotta have ***** to melt open a pair of 1997 tails 
I couldn't stand the yellowish reverse light and the orange on the side of the lights.. so the orange is now red, and the reverse light box is now a smokey/bronzish color.
Djsenyi- that's the proper way to mount it. As long as the NOS sticker is up, it's mounted at the correct angle. It doesn't really matter which way the bottle is mounted in the car. The trunk cover pretty much hides the bottle completely.
JspecSC3- thanks for the compliments. Thanks again for all the help with the 5spd swap too. I'll be doing it next weekend.

i'm loving it dude
who did you end up getting the vertex lip from and for what price?
i wanted a vertex kit but it looks like i'm gonna have to go 97+ due to my environment i can't have fiberglass
looks like making my car like yours is the best option i have right now

How did it fit? I bought a vertex body kit for my old 92 sc and it was about 3/4'' too short as it was made for the j-spec version. Ended up having to take them to small claims court after about a yr and a half cause they didn't want to return my money and take their crappy kit back. However, this lip looks real nice and I'm wondering about fitment.

It's a 2001 celica steering wheel. I bought the airbag + wheel for CHEAP, so I figured- why not?
I wana swap the toyota symbol for a L though..-Allen

fitment was 100% dead on accurate, flawless. As mentioned earlier in the thread, the lip is supposed to go under the bumper- but the car was NOT able to get into ANY driveway... so I sortof put it over the bumper. It's still really secure, and looks better than stock IMO. Ground clearance isn't too bad, but if you're not careful, you could easily break the lip within one day (fiberglass).
