turbo_rolla Posted May 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Bit of an update on the quads........... Â got this on friday afternoon: Â Out of ^ came this: Â Only had time to play around with one of them (they are both passenger side brackets, so need to fiddle around with the one for the drivers side), but this is what i got done quickly: Â Had to grind more away from the valance to fit them in place and a couple of holes for the studs to go through (almost spot on where existing ones were though). Its not completely finished as i have to straighten it up, do the drivers side obviously, and get 2 "flat faced" globes so they match the semi-sealed ones i've got in there. will also give them a spray when i've trial fitted the lot so they look like new, and cut down and put the old grill back on. also looking into an addition for the front grill, but that wont be revealed for a week or so yet :) Â A big thanks to Mike from clubk in NZ for sending these over, for a VERRRRY good price too! After these are in, i'll only need fender mirrors and chrome bumpers to get it how i want it to look (basing it on a pic that most beige ke70 owners are :yes: ). Â Let me know what ya think :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbo_rolla Posted May 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Lookin good, There was a twin headlight ae71 grill on ebay US for 20 bucks.Yeah, saw that on there. it was from the guy i was originally gonna get the headlight surrounds from in the phillipines (rhett?). considered it but will adapt the standard grill (will get rid of the t-18 levin grill thats on there at the moment) and see what that looks like :yes: will hopefully have it all finished by the end of this weekend, but will see how i go for time :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo_rolla Posted May 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Had a play around with the drivers side light today and have got it on and almost how it needs to be. Had to do alot of chopping of the bracket (as it was for a passenger side mount), but I'm fairly happy with the result considering all of that. will make final adjustments to both sides shortly, but next job will be getting a grill back on it as the Levin one came off today (looks better with no grill than one with 1.5" either side before the lights). Anyway, less talk and more pics: Â Â Â The gap under the parkers is "normal", as to do it "properly" you need the front valance (???) and front guards from memory. All good for now though! :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I'm sure you'll suss out front guards and valance eventually :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jono Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 just make up some small aluminium panels and bung em in with chewing gum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo_rolla Posted May 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 just make up some small aluminium panels and bung em in with chewing gum!considered that, but using something a bit tackier than chewing gum :cool: that's what i'll probably do though - make up some little backing and bog and paint to make it look nice and clean perhaps? We'll see. Â Picked up a little something for the grill today - not sure if anyone else other than me will like it, but its my "modern" take on the JDM TE71's :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbo_rolla Posted May 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 nah, not a new corolla badge :) i'll elaborate a bit more on my previous hint - I'm doing a "modern" take on the JDM TE71 GT. will be on by the end of the weekend i would imagine, so will chuck up a pick then. could go either way, so will see how we go :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
