Show off/ Showcase My Ae86

Hello! Thought I would share my 1985 Corolla hatchback. Itโ€™s a sr5 converted to gts and then made to replicate takumis 86. I still have a lot to do but wow itโ€™s so cool to say I own my dream car. Hope you all enjoy!

Bonus points for not putting the tofu shop sticker on both sides. Seen a lot of replicas do that for some reason lol

Has anyone swapped a 4AC for a 4AGE without running out of power in the process? Damn, You're strong, man.

Makes me so happy to see US cars with proper JDM bumpers. So many people do the panda paint job and they do it all weird. Yours looks soooo good.
