Im sure this has probably been asked before but ... does anyone know of uk sites with boydstyling mods? or any kind of mods for a 99reg sr? also if anyone ahs a turbo front bumper for sale id be interested, thanks in advance

Welcome to the site fella

Right, if you want to go down the lines of fitting a Glanza V(Turbo) front bumper you will have to change the:

Headlights

Bonnet

& the bumper

the reason is the headlights on the Glanza V are a different shape to the UK Starlet

Hope this helps

Welcome to the Club badboy.... liking the cheesy name :P

What colour is ur motor? By the way.... it's very hard modifiying a car like this. lol... well to me it is.

Well hope to see you in the starlet meet that we are organising soon.

Shelly

Enjoy!

aye shellys right...

there are a wealth of tuning products out there for the starlet but they arte all expensive having to be mported from one country or another and you also have to go looking.

my girlfirnd has just baught a civic and the amount of cheap stuff on eBay is just unreal...

wads of stuff!!

Welcome to the club

As has been said not alot of body modifications in the uk, you either have to import them or get a kit from another car and make it fit, but thats even more money, unless your good with fibre glass and cutting things :D

Welcome to the club. i been meaning to do stuff to my SR but nothing much is beening done iav ad it a month and still only a air freshner.

[badboy007]

first of all thanks for the warm welcome from all you chaps in the TOC forum a great place for all ur toyota needs

unfortunately wont be makin it to the starlet meet jus as yet.... still gotta get that F***ing piece of paper that says i can legally drive on the roads lol. still not passed but got the sr gna kit it out so in a few mtnhs wen me hopefully pass got a slik ride to drive. the car is black but getting it resprayed black with like a gold glitter flip in the paintwork. modifying the yaris t sport side skirts to fit just gotta cut em up a bit and they shud be arite. exhaust is coming off gettin something bigger so dat departments sorted. modifying parts to fit is not a problem because thats the kinda thing we do (city auto slavage) so its not as bad. reason i bought a starlet was cos first of all it aint the usual nova corsa micra in some cases that you see young drivers gettin its something diff frm most ppl, n da second main reason INSURANCE lol it only group 4 which is not as bad comapred to ma e30 convertible i was gna drive which would have been 4GRAND plus on insurance pics of it are on the company website if anyone wants to check it out. sold the bimma now soo got a bit of money to play with the starlet dats why wanted some uk styling sites.. cant be ubikd with importing stuff even tho there is some nice stuff out there. if anyone comes across a uk site plz let us kno. any pics of member starlets? wnt mind seeing wat kidna starlets u guys drive,

cheers

[starletsr]

Think the photos of members are all random place on this site, just look at all the old posts on here. The paint job think sounds nice, how much would that set you back?

Yeah and starlets are rare little cars, esp the black ones are limited addition so you dont get normal starlets in black, only the SR comes in black unlike the silver and white.

yep cheap insurance and not a bad little car. Good luck with ur future mods.

Shelly

My little car is in this thread.....

Mine

[badboy007]

flip aint gonna set me bak much becoz its my bro that does all the paintwork on our cars so basically watever the paint and materials cost. ur starlet looks quite slik i guess its the colour more then owt. how much did the clear inds nock you bak?

cheers

[starletsr]

Wow family jobs hey, not bad. My clear indicators....... the side ones? well I don't think they actually have any clear side repeaters for the starlets from toyoto but the corolla ones do fit the starlet, just nick them off the rolla, that's what i did!!! LOL only joking , you can get the front ones from Toyota from about £20 i think.

[badboy007]

i meant the ones nex to the headlights. got tons of corollas in the yard was thinkin <_< hmm how hte hell cud i get a corolla side indicator to fit ma starlet lol

[starletsr]

I really cant remember the price for it, best is to ask ur parts department at toyota dealer.

[Starlet Nath]

There is 2 ways of doing it!!!

You could buy two new units costing £25ea I think??

Or you could do what I didn't :( and buy lenses which I think are about £5-£10 ea??

Damn Toyota <_< Only found out after :cacker:

[Firthy]

Hey up bad boy, sounds like you got everything sorted, good to have contacts lucky you

Paint job sounds mint, i doubt the starlet meet will be too soon, so you never know you might be driving by then ;)

As with regards to the clear indicators they are about £20-£30 for the pair from memory dont quote me on that tho :D

Aint got any decent pics of the car yet, but will soon be sorted sunday at the northern mini meet, so il get some pics done and post em up
