i just painted my emblems black..just take them off the car, sand them down with fine grit sandpaper, dip them in rubbing alcohol to get rid of any impurities that would cause the paint not to stick. after they're dry spray them with a coat or two of primer, let that dry then appily a few light coats of flat black and let em' dry. then just put them back on the car and you're done. it looks a lot beter than the chrome/silver ones and its easy to do. i can post a pic of it if you want.

<font color='#000000'>I know I'm not here very much but, I try to get on when I can...
Let me see if I can answer some questions:
what turbo kit should i buy for my 2002 celica gt

1. To turbo a celica it isn't extremely difficult but it is expensive, you just need a good turbo kit. If you plan on going past 220 whp plan on spending quite a bit of money buying parts to strenghthen your engine, tranny etc.

2. The GT is a lot easier to Turbo then the GTS because of VVTL-i (there is some computer problems that haven't been figured out yet)

3. TRD Matrix/Vibe supercharger will not fit in the Celica GT without modifing your hood somehow. Also the price will be roughly $3500 installed and was scheduled to be released this year.

4. Meryem13: I think Celica Chick meant to say "Yesterday I brought my celica to get checked out, which I'm furious about"


How'd I do?? :laugh:</font>[/B]

if you can post a pic of the switch for the headlights, I can possibly point it out to you. Its on the same "stem" thingy. Not sure what the proper term for it is...
