From a mate in Japan:

 

Orido took this thing a spin at the end of last weeks MSC Event at Nikko. Its owned by one of the MSC Event orginisers and is the MASTER COPY for a new Aero kit utilising new shape Celica Headlights. Car looks awesome i think....

The bonnet area is too fussy and looks too much like the Celica with that central vent, otherwise I think it works "ok", will probably look better with paint and graphics.

 

There's an MR2 with a similar headlight conversion in this country, don't like that either.

 

It looks a lot nicer now it's in the blue colour, it scares me a little because I really like it... I feel dirty for admitting that.

Er well it's a bit better than red with chrome wheels, but still awful :p And yes you should feel dirty for allowing such thoughts, poor MR2 ;)

Indeed to compared to the TS effort it's much much better.

 

They've done some excellent work on making the bodywork work with those lights and IMO that have brought the front end right up to date...he really should have facelift rear lights and the bonnet catches should be colour coded as they are too much of a distraction in black. I agree the nose vent makes you think celica too much.

 

Over all I think it's a very good conversion.
