marc_p Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 cant beat stock http://img260.imageshack.us/img260/5172/shinyun9.jpg How much is it for a standard bumper with a working active spoiler, I think your converting me:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyW Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 You can pick them up relativly cheaply as a lot of people remove them when they fit an aftermarket bumper or an fmic as you can't retract it due to lack of room. You can have it with an fmic fitted but in the permanantly deployed poisition like Guigsy's stunning looking Supra. I've seen active spoilers going for around the £100 mark on the for sale forum.

Guigsy Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 well getting the bumper isnt going to be very dificult i wouldnt have thaught. The active spoiler part might be though. Mine doesnt work though cause the intercooler gets in the way. Its also good for speed bumps because its plastic so bends easily and its quite thin so has a lot of flex edit - beat me to it!

suprattgaz Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Top secret follows veilside skirts perfectly - I loved this car, shame it didn't have two spinney things under the bonnet otherwise i would have still had this one. Everyone loved it, even my Mum who couldn't care less about cars!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suprattgaz Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Hmm, it did pull it off, but I did feel it was too big for the road. I didn't put it on there, was on it when I imported it. It got an AWFUL lot of attention (in a good way). Got the usual picnic table, ironing board comment soff mates - just jealous! That said i went for a TRD on my current one, saw a couple of black supes with the Veilside, just wasn't the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suprattgaz Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 TS goes with VS very well (that's the one I was one about today on the phone), BEWARE OF LACK OF GROUND CLEARANCE WITH THIS BUMPER!!!! Especailly if lowered. I have NEVER been in a multi-storey or anything like that since owning these two past cars!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that goes for any Supra that doesn't have a front lip/bumper of any kind, I scrape my UK lip all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Stock bumper + active spoiler is the best look. http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f329/jamescalv/JNE/Feb%2008/smlIMG_1837.jpg Don't know how anyone could look at that and think the Veilside one looks better Wow Johnny that car is stunning Just one more: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Thats the only front end I would even consider if I was changing from stock. Its practical to fit a huge front mount to, the ground clearance isn't so bad, and it has a certain OEM look to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpgimage.php?do=full&p=43&d=1129915960 Thats the only front end I would even consider if I was changing from stock.

Agreed, Simons Whifbitz front intimated the hell out of me when he came shooting up behind me on the way to JAE 2006 The Whifbitz or the Stillen are always in the back of my mind, then again I find it hard to beat the stock/active spoiler look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 This photo of Simons is pretty much what I saw through the rain in my rear view mirror, thought it was going to swallow my car whole!
