Well, now it can even be called a project! Start. - Toyota Corolla, 1.5 L, 1989

Well now it can even be called a project  Start  - Toyota Corolla 15 L 1989

After I tried my hand at welding, painting and other joys, I can now formulate what I want to get from this car.
It is customary to give names to projects, but I can't think of something, can you help?

In general, I want to get a black and white car with a police sticker, I don’t know why, but this topic is very catchy for me.

I want to divide the work into stages and talk about my ideas.

1. Painting and pasting.
The roof and the upper parts of the doors will be painted black, as well as both bumpers and molding. An exclusive sticker layout will also be developed.
We can do all this on our own on the basis of our boxing, which has everything you need. I have already filled my hand in painting :)

2. Tuning the bumper.
Looking at my bumper, I realized that even for a simple painting it needs to be well putty in some places, then the idea arose to muddle two round fog lights into it.
I have already invented the technology of this perversion, for this you need a piece of plastic pipe with a diameter of 10 cm, assembly foam, resin and fiberglass, as well as a putty with fiberglass and a bumper putty.
That is, in fact, I will make podiums in which I will insert round headlights. (see photo)

3. Tuning the hood and air filter.

This round box of the air filter just infuriates, I have long wanted to come up with something with it. I decided to remove it, fuck it, insert a tube with a zero resistance filter instead, which will go into a plexiglass box (since there is a place under the hood - at least eat your ass). In the hood, a nostril will be made like a turbo guide, but all the air taken from the nostril will go into the box with the filter. So that any debris does not fly through the nostril, I want to make a foam rubber pad with impregnation for motorcycle air filters there. Although, again, this idea is worth considering.

These are all decorations, of course you need to paint a car, because the years take their toll. By spring tuning the suspension and the engine will begin, but that will be later :) In the meantime, I will do what I can
