I'm saving to have my gt2 vents installed, and was trying to figure out what else I wanted to do with it while the body shop has it (gettting the vents in has seriously changed my ideas)

I was thinking like this: Razzi 03+ front, kam sides, kam rear, gt2 vents above the curve line in the rear fenders, and boxtser or old-school mr2 vents below it...with a veilside type 1 wing painted to match my car


What I'm trying to figure out is would 2 sets of vents look tacky or not????
I think the curve of the gt2 vent and the boxster vent wouldn't look too bad...

i wouldn't put both sets of vents in, have you tried photochopping (or requesting one) to see how it would look?

caleb...not yet...it was just an idea to offset things since they are gonna be working on it anyway...someone even suggested I leave the second vents ou, and get the kam sides and rear, and the octane front to make it look like the GT2

I'd have to see it chopped. Just from my imagination, I'd say no. But, the Octane front would set it off right. thumbsup My friend has that on her purple Celi. Looks hot!

i wouldn't try to make it look like a gt2..and i personally don't like the kaminari sides..they're too 'bubbly' and the celica is all about lines & cuts. try using the rmm sides if you go with a kam rear..it flows very nicely.

i do like the idea of the octane front though, it does look similar to the gt2 front thumbsup

^^ let me know how it goes..shoot me a PM when you decide.

the only thing i don't like about the rmm sides is that they are fiberglass...but sideskirts are pretty hard to damage to begin with, you should be fine
