My celica still hasn't come back yet. As you may know, I sent it to J&D here to install my Veilside side skirts and rear bumper + the Blitz front bumper and the TRD hood spoilers. Well, I finally asked my dad where the hell my celica is and he says that J&D said, "this body kit is the most god-awful p.o.s there is." And they were talking about the veilside side skirts. I was like wtf, the veilside kit is top quality and should fit perfect and i have the real kit, no replica. So he told me that they put on the side skirts differently cause they thought they weren't fitting right and were really wobbily and that the screws were showing. So from what I heard which was confusing, they did some kind of reinforcement with fiberglass to keep the side skirts on and filled in every part there was a screw, so you cannot see any screws on the side skirts. I was like, how the hell could they think it doesn't fit right, they have to be stupid. Then, I asked if everything was ok with the FG Blitz front and they said it was good, but they are putting on something to reinforce it also. They also said it is going to be real low, which i already know that. But I am praying to god that it is going to turn out way better than I expected and will be top-notch quality for having it for over a month. So what do you guys think about this? I am going to take pics as soon as it gets back next week finally and pics of what they did. Sounds like I won't be able to take the side skirts off at all, but that's cool. My dad is trying to buy a ford dealership and if that happens, I could possibly get a WRX, but celica for now. Plus, Isaac if you read this, did they call you at all for help? My dad said they didn't know how to put the hood spoilers on and called someone, probably you.

Yes, the screw WILL show - but just paint the heads with touch-up paint and no one will ever notice. An so what if the sides are a BIT wobbily (within reason), this is why they are attached with several screws - so they dont fly off! look at the locations of the screws - there is just about no way that these things are going anyplace!

Hood spoilers are simple to install - the factory celica hood already has all of the drill locations noted on the skeleton. Open your hood and you cannot miss them - they are the only holes in the skeleton that look like they are there for no reason (ie, holes without bolts)

Yea I know about everything dude, but they just didn't like it. I can't change it now, they totally customized it, I really don't know what they did, but they are pro's at this and do not want to disappoint my dad about it. So I figure it will turn out good, I'll post pics on it as soon as it gets back.

BTW, I am thinking about getting a different spoiler. I am going to get the roof spoiler, but I want the rear spoiler to match with it. I was thinking the Carbon Fiber Veilside Spoiler or the FG Veilside, I am leaning toward the Carbon Fiber. Any suggestions? The reason is that since i have the veilside rear and sides, that spoiler goes along really well with it and I'm not dropping the car, so I don't want anything big, i.e. the one I have on it.
