jevansio Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I left the ears on mine, although I think it looks great with or without, couple with ears, one without: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmike Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 do you think it would be better left black on a storm blue one ? just bit worried that if its painted and quite low might take a hammering but left natural would just bend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 There's a nice pic of an RSP on Supraforums I'll try & find with it unpainted, prolly the closest colour to Storm Blue Here it is: I'll try & photoshop it Storm Blue for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Another black one for you http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v613/dmargrave/supra-oct-1.jpg that is stunning! love them wheels.. paul are you taking notes! only issue i have with this lip is that its to low and will scrape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmike Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 thats why i am bit unsure about painting it at least not painted it will just scrape and not lose the paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrikbrunt Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 although they look excellent with or without... id say lose the 'ears', think it looks a bit neater with the bottom of the bumper matching with the top of the lip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Very tempted to go with a carbon one of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmike Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 so was i ,and would have looked good until the first time i drove it round the roads near me ,then it would just have been a pile of bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 My suggestion is get the urthene one. 1 smack on a steep incline or a speedbump expect to pick up the pieces at side of the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Very tempted to go with a carbon one of these. They look mint in carbon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Without the ears, I am going to be removing mine sometime soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmike Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 i guess the best thing to do would be to fit it as is with no paint and the ears ,and take some pics cause i can allways paint it or chop off ears at a later date might be trickey to put the ears back on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 thanks! Heckler:help:! Yip, they'd go down well if he could sort something like that, I prefer that thin strip over the full OEM indicator full of leds, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Yip, they'd go down well if he could sort something like that, I prefer that thin strip over the full OEM indicator full of leds, Yep, but I think i'd prefer something a little thicker, maybe 2 strips of LEDs? I'm a fussy b@stard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
