i am so glad i didn't do mine now, i have this bumper and it does not go well with the supra tails, i think yours looks great but this pic makes me sad. every cloud has a silver line and i'm sure you will make it look better than ever! Would love to see some pics of the damage so we can see your good work when its done again...

You have done an amazing job on repairs and this conversion. I would love to have a write up on whats needed to do this conversion. i was thinking of converting the front end to the supra front and leaving the back alone. whatcha think?
sounds good i was considering doing a complete front end conversion as well but im kinda hesetent to do this as it would no longer be a noticable celica but still considering it excuse my bad spelling

yeah rght now ive decided to just pull the front end off and maybe start over but im undecided for now im putting a z style lip on the front end (stock)... on my way hme today i was taking a turn on the hwy and it felt like something is about to snap (vibrating)... on the suspension as i was taking a corner not fast under 60 the car suddenly started pulling to the rght hard as if the suspension was giving i will be tearing aprt the car tonight ive had a control arm snap on two cars and ive a feeling this might be the case here so anyone have any ideas i was turning to the rght and it started pulling harder to the rght followed by some vibration on the driver side when i take a turn
ok figured it out the reason it pulled to the rght was becuase the f#@$ing cv axle nut was no longer on the passenger side of the car i will never take my car to another shop again as long as i live no one is allowed to touch my car but me lol this could of been a disaster

its about time for your luck to change my friend.... about to start my facelift here this weekend myself so lets hope i have more luck than you've had!
