Canada Help with 90 Celica Invader Kit

Hey I was wondering if anyone can help me with how to install the 90-93 Toyota Celica Invader body kit. I took off the front bumper and was a little disappointed to discover that the front reinforcement was in the way. The Invader cover does not appear to cover this. It is too thin at the top. Aside from removing the reinforcement there does not appear to be a way to get this to fit without some heady modification to the kit. Does anyone have an installation guide or any advice?

Thanks

Leo

from what i've heard body kits usually arent just a bolt on, they usually require trimming and cutting to get the right fit.

Celica Body Kit

You can buy the whole kit if you like. It doesnt appear that I will be able to install in. From what I have read this is for the GT model and I have the GTS. Aside from cutting up the bumper I dont see how I can install it.

Make me an offer for the whole kit.
front bumper, rear bumper and 2 side skirts brand new, never installed

yeah, this is a common problem with many cars and body kits, a lot of the times the reinforcement bar will not allow the aftermarket bumper to fit so people usually cut off the ends of the bar to get good fitment,

have you checked a shop?

if you in mississauga theres a couple that can put the kit on for you, but i font think itll be cheap

hope this helps
