The Raven Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 Braved the ice and cold to fit the trd today, the end caps where gold. However i found some paint in a rattle can in a bucket of ice in the garden. Needless to say the finish isnt great and will need the caps redone at some point. Im leaving the rest black.

SupraStar 3000 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Like the black look on the TRD wing. Was very tempted to do that myself. Looking great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 Like the black look on the TRD wing. Was very tempted to do that myself. Looking great Im not joking when i said the rattle can was in a bucket of ice. I had to smash the bucket then chip it free. Seems ok this morning the paint isnt the best but it will do.

nevins Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Just wondering have you had any issues with the location of the side repeaters regarding an mot, as I hate the location on the wing and this seems like a great way around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 sorry but you have taken that supra to far. looks to chavy to me. Each to thier own nothing to be sorry about. I wanted something different, something that stands out. May i ask what was to far on it? just wondering. As for the inside, starting with the dash panels as they are nasty! Moving on to a better cleaner boot install, trying to get the footwell neons to come on and off when the door is open, some new seats would be nice.

supspower Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I think your car looks sweet!! Come a long way dude think by far this is the best looking supra you've had! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I like the look, Just needs some aggressive wheels now, if it was mine i would do the light insides black and spray the sides of the TRD wing silver be spot on, but as said we all have different tastes:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benkei Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 trying to get the footwell neons to come on and off when the door is open Could you connect them up to the interior light? ok the things that put me of silver inserts on the wing tinted markers on the bumper I agree. The side reps look like black blobs, and the silver inserts loom random. spray the sides of the TRD wing silver be spot on I agree with you too Jamie. Also I'd suggest clear side reps to match the rest of the front lights on the car. Apart form those few point, I think you've done a great job!

themodifiedkid Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Just wondering have you had any issues with the location of the side repeaters regarding an mot, as I hate the location on the wing and this seems like a great way around it. There is no problem with the MOT mate, I put them in Russ (The Raven) bumper which mirrors the location on my facelift/all facelift front bumpers. For everyone who says you should do that and should do this, this project was done on a shoestring and thats the beauty of it. I no every one has there opinions which they are entitled to but the main aim was to make the customer (The Raven) happy, and he clearly is. Rant over Think i must have got out of bed the wrong side today people sorry The TRD looks good though mate on a positive note Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
