pistonbroke Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Seeing as the wave of huge parcels started arriving today for the supra, I thought I'd start my project progress thread. I know how much I love watching other peoples cars take shape so thought I'd do the same for mine. Big thanks to Albert at knight racer for the stuff that arrived today TRD spoiler with carbon blade (the abflug was pull my pants down expensive ) Blitz side skirts Stuff still to come from Whifbitz UK Headlamps (look ace on 199 silver) Ridox front bumper Ridox rear spats Facelift front indicators Clear side repeaters Currently waiting to part with the current wheels before I order the 19" Finichi Firenzes with matt black center The car is still in the garage waiting for a few more parts. I'll update with pics as stuff happens. OOOOhh I'm like a kid at christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) Small update today, everything has arrived that's needed. Thanks to Paul at whifbitz for the Ridox bumper and rear spats. This is the way she looks at the moment. I'll be fitting the bumper this Friday to ensure a proper fitment. I still need to get a bity more cash together before I order the wheels (someone buy my 6 puck clutch in the for sale section ) I never realised how hard it is to find a set of wheels, I set my heart on a set one minute, then see something else that catches my eye another. I'll wait till I've got the funds together before making the decision. Any hints on what wheels would suit the car would be much appreciated. EDIT, I also need some sort of bracket to secure the PAS cooler on the N/S. Any hints and tips please.

pistonbroke Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 FFS, I was just looking at that pic and thought the gaping hole in the front bumper looked a bit big for a ridox. Sure enough, its a Retaliator bumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
