The Raven Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 Update time, Have got one of those Supra blanking plates for under the cd player, also brought some 4" blue neons. I plan to splice them into the footwell ones to give me a nice blue glowing supra sign when i open the door. Taking my dash to someone to see if they can carbon wrap it. Having a good look at the boot tomorrow, seeing as the car is off road right now i think its time to start doing the boot install. Hoping to make it a bit special, but all depends how i can work around the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted February 24, 2010 Author Share Posted February 24, 2010 The spoiler is wrapped, however the dash would not stay wrapped due to the paint on it, so i will strip it right back and have another go. Boot build on hold till i get time off work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Looking good Russ, the wheels suit the car far better IMO. Finishes the look for me:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 well i got the panels back from the sign shop today. Well happy with the results. I used some back to black to give it a sheen. Need the supra stainless fitted and neons then i can fit it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexM Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Looks tons better with the new wheels, I like it de-spoilered too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) Had a half day off so started work on my boot build. PAIN IN THE ARSE Having to check every time you put a bit in if the roof will still fit. And trying to still be able to get to the mech bits once its all in. Anyway you can get the rough idea where its heading. Edited March 5, 2010 by The Raven (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Never seen anyone use chipboard on a boot build before, looks like you are having trouble with the edges crumbling, better to use MDF:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Never seen anyone use chipboard on a boot build before, looks like you are having trouble with the edges crumbling, better to use MDF:) Indeed. But i had it laying around so i used it. I may be forced to use MDF but atleat i have templates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra steveo Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) how much did it cost to get your dash done ? and yeah MDF as jamie said dude EDIT yep use them as templates i would keep test fitting the roof in the boot too to make sure its aerotop friendly Edited March 5, 2010 by supra steveo (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
