No offence. Honestly I even think the celica looks kind of rice even stock...
That wing is stock from Toyota.

I'm pretty sure that's the optional kit for the Celica from Toyota (minus the winglets on the front in one of those pics). This gen of the Celica was a very capable car, and the 2ZZ is a strong, high-revving engine. Not a slouch of a car, especially around the cones.

EDIT - ...and I'm an hour late to the party. lol That's what I get for not refreshing when I come back from lunch.

So TRUE!!! I see this crap all day! I LOVE his offsets not to mention those junk wheels. I'm in SoCal and I see this stuff and stock like 95% of the time. OP welcome and don't repeat the mistakes seen here!

i dunno abt you guys but i ran against a stock 08 HR (greddy exhaust) and there was really no difference except he had abt 700 more rpm than me. I only have a 03 base with jwt and 3in. topspeed. i shocked him... he thought he was gunna wax me. lol we are both 6spd btw.

I think Andy went back to a newer Viper. Or was it an NSX? I've lost track but I know he let the GTR go.
