Supra lights - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #41536 21 posts Started by lipweb
I just bought a set of factory 98 rear Supra lights and light buckets with all the extras needed for converting the rear of my Celica GT. I just need a few ideas on how to make it look more like a supra. I will be shaving the plate housing and putting the plate on the bumper. I just can't figure how to place the lights. It's an odd angle.

Any suggestions?????
Not to flame or anything, but a search would turn up tons of info about this! smile.gif

Right - I've looked at just about everyones pic and spent half the day doing it last night. Unfortunately I remember only seeing an orange one that had the plate on the bumper with the supra light conversion and it still didn't look quite right.

I know how to convert it I just can't seem to get it to look right. I'm thinking about cutting the hatch and raising the lights higher like a supra. But my problem is then - where the hell do I get a bumper as big as a Supra to fix the gap.

*sigh* Maybe it's just not possible.

Look up Oreo's conversion... It was perfect


I did a search for Oreo. Can't seem to find it. Is that his username?

TOYOTAPARKING ONLY all others will be crushed...P®¡n©iހMBmarvi75@hotmail.comSOPHIA & EZEQUIEL are my life!! I love them!!
man i think people need to put the taillights upper towards the hatch and farther away from eachother. it should also line up with the end edges towards the wheel well. alot of people put them close to eachother and it looks weird.

oreo's celica is a perfect example of how it should look.

btw, it looks like a toy car! ahaha

Looks good to me but they are too close together. Oreo's is exactly what I'm looking for.

thats got lots of pics

i'd say the best way to make it look more like a supra is to get an oem supra rear bumper instead of trying to modify the celica bumper



I was told the supra bumper wouldn't fit and it wouldn't be worth modifying it.

if oreo lived near me... i'd let him do mine... but he doesn't
0re0's conversion is nice its part of a full supra rear bumper and supra side splitters....

I didn't realize how much a stock supra bumper is from toyota. Looks like I may be going aftermarket, especially since it'll be cut anyway.
offtopic, what ever happened to 0Re0 nowadays? was his car ever repaired from the accident?
