    Hi,

    Yeah, there was a hump bonnet model that went to the USA. Not sure if the bonnet would fit a TA22 though.

    Mind you, why would you want to spoil the beautiful sleek lines of the 22 with that bulbous god-awful bonnet?

    The bonnet you are after is from the US Ra21 and is the 75 model only. Cost a fortune to get here and look like arse too.

    there is a guy on the forums that are doing 23 bonnets in f/glass,
    he would be able to make up the bulge bit that you are after, its just a matter of masking of the mould and laying up the section that you are after
    cheers

    Honest, hey?

    The 22 is the definitive Celica coupe and it has, in my opinion, the sweetest lines and sleekest look. It is a gorgeous car. The 23 is a lovely car, but it just doesn't have those flowing lines of the 22. Again, this is my personal opinion.

    A bulged bonnet on a 22 would look like absolute shit, fuck up its good looks, and it would make me want to punch you and then jam a rear axle up your clay pipe.

    Oh, and I would laugh at your car and point my finger at you.

    Is that honest enough, or would you prefer the "yeah man, that'd look sweet.. do it" respone?

    Now that's honest...

    Harsh but HONEST.

    Nearly wet myself reading it !

    Here's a pic of the bonnet in Q here.





    I can cut the "hump" off the centre of the bonnet = $50

    YOU find a freight guy your end And don't tell anyone we have an '80 Escort Pano...

    Our rep will shot to shreds !

    Look at this pic and tell me that it suits the TA22? 23 or 28 yes but not the 22.
