Same boat looking around net for same thing 1990 tercel cpe.
Thinking trying to find something that has similiar lines and bumper style this way can try and figure out what will fit. Had thoughts on maybe a 91 to 94 sentra r33 kit or maybe a ae86 front bumper of the 86 to 88 version or maybe a gts corolla factory pieces from yets say a 89 or 90 year



Wings west still has spoilers for it and if you look close this tercel has a body kit on it I do not know if it is a old wingwest kit or maybe a customers car it also looks like gts rims?

Yes I found that webpage too talking about how the fenders and body parts cross over.
Looks cool but I am guessing big money to do a complete conversion.
Plus I like the front of my US model tercel. Reminds me of a M30 infiniti cpe or a skyline coupe. That is why trying to find similar bodies with kits that have similar bumpers front and rear and in size and side skirts.

Or maybe 87-88 Corolla gts front and side skirts?

I have found alot of websites just for tercel but it just seems that several of the forums think that tercels were only manfactured starting in 1991.

I am just suprised that no one has looked into body kits for 1990 and earlier Tercels since there as so many of them out there.

Back then nobody was hooking them up. The RWD Corolla sedan was the tuner car.
Actually those body kits (80's Corolla sedan) should fit and look good with a little mod.

Ive got a Corolla front bumper cover on my 1988 3dr. If I was to get a body kit to mod I would get one for a square body corolla like late 80's style
