RobSheffield Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Looks a bit like the JDL kit. I think Tricky Ricky has that kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest blueangel Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 i dont think its much wider than stock thou it looks like its just stuck on exstensions and panels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamB1434 Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 yeh it doesnt look much wider, i think kits that are to wide waste the shape of the supra anyway. i'm getting 19's so the should sit nicely. i was messing about on photoshop trying to decide what colour to do the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas_germany Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I got the kit fitted. Everything fittet PERFECT. Did not even have to cut a mm. Did not have to drill any holes, since all stock holes can be used. I love the kit, but I think a trial rear would match better to the other parts. If I had the choise, I'd get it again!

Thomas_germany Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I live in germany. I payed 640 € and shipping was free (it was a special offer and I got it from JDL-Tuning). I think 500 is very good. The kit is fiberglass with a white coat - so fitted you'll only see white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 There also a detailed build thread in the projects section here showing Ricky's JDL build: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=122422 Buy direct from JDL, not a copy! They are pretty cheap as it is and the feedback on the kit quality seems to be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but i really cant agree with that statement, did you fit this kit yourself? I really don't know how you where able to fit it without drilling any holes:shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I expect you'll need to budget for a full respray too bud, there's so many parts to it that you're not likely to get away with just spraying the kit and fitting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themodifiedkid Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Sounds well cheap to me. Just make sure you see the company's work first before you let them loose on your pride and joy. Ive fitted a few kits in my time so have some experience and would have charged alot more than that with fitting and spraying, i would have thought along the lines between £2 - 3K and thats just fitting and spraying just the kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas_germany Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Sorry, think you got me wrong. I did drill holes in the kit-parts, but no new holes needed to be drillen in the car. I used the stock holes in the fender, where the black platic things are to fit the skirts and bumpers and the stock mount points for the front. And yes, I fitted the kit all by myself. I had no problems at all. I was suprised everything fitted so good. For this price I expectet to cut the parts apart and put them back together to make them fit.

All i can say is you must have got an exceptional fitting kit, i was quite impressed with the kit, but still had to make quite a few alterations to get it to fit to my liking, however I'm a fussy git:) However i am surprised that you got the rear over bumper to fit without having to drill and screw, in order to get a close fit? so the glue can set without leaving a big gap? I also needed to build up the skirts where they fit behind the door. Be interested to see some pics of your Supra:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
