I will finish it now I have a drill to do some speed sanding :D

With the cams Im still slightly confused, went to a dyno day in Milton Keynes and it came back with 193bhp <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->
But back at DynoDaze it was up from 173bhp, but only to 183bhp
This was just after changing the MAF sensor, not a brand new one either, so will try and find one if the price is right - looking at around £150 at the moment :rolleyes: Still, going in the right direction so Im slightly happier

Anyway, last weekend got my roof wrapped at Wrap Kings


Oh and the stickers down the side of the window have gone!

They also did my headlights with a light tint, so theyre off at the moment and I'll be fixing up the halos etc and adding some relays to the LED strip in the lights to make them DRLs. I had the lights tinted already at a company in Nottingham but it was too dark, matt finished, and I couldnt see shit! So ripped them off, waste of £60, wont have the same problem with the lighter tint though

Tried fitting red HEL braided brake hoses this weekend ready for the MOT, epic fail, got one on and all the rest were seized or chewed at the joints. Tried to take the one back off, and it chewed the joint again - which is built in/attached to the actual brake line PIPES so god knows whats going to happen with them

Heres another pic of the roof wrap, havent got the headlights back on it yet:


Next I thought I'd blend the roof 3rd brake light in, so I sanded off the writing thats embossed on it and then thanks to some small tint from Vlad I made it gloss black :D

Sanded off the writing:


Wrapped and fitted (settled since and smoothed out)


Now got the replacement spoiler as well, yes the big TRD spoiler is going Im afraid! Going to get Alcester Car Care to spray and fit it at some point, its a TRD Sports M spoiler - only 1,200 of the Sports M celicas were ever made and only a handful made it to the UK so its pretty rare

Yeah to be honest I bought it before the roof was wrapped, now I kinda like the big spoiler because it blends nicer with the CF blade

So might end up selling the new spoiler. Saying that, Im getting tempted by a supercharged celica thats coming up for sale soon, and the Sports M spoiler is the same colour.... tempting!
