Dave_SZ-R Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Apologies firstly if this has been asked before, the closest I saw was 'which mods do you regret doing most?'. I want to know what commonly seen modifications you dislike, dont agree with or just plain hate? The Veilside 'ironing board/ picnic table' would be the most obvious one that is regularly hated on. Personally, I really dont like the Toyota badge with devil horns that alot of Supras have stuck on them. Fair enough, its not a Supra-specific mod, but it just screams 'Max Power' to me. Also, I dont think 'NAs' would count, as theyre not really a mod... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you've got a lovely car in your garage, so I'm not going to tear it apart here - even though I've got a badge which looks as you describe, and I'm picking up another at Japfest on Saturday from the guy who makes them. However, when I see a Supra with a fibreglass bodykit on it I cringe now, having owned and driven one for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Also, I dont think 'NAs' would count, as theyre not really a mod... Nope, just a failure! - Carbon Fibre (unless it's functional) - Dark window tints - Wheelmania, TSW, Fox etc wheels - Crap tyres - Cheap big brake kits - Huge exhausts on NAs, and Blue Flame exhausts in general - Awful retrims - filler - body coloured dash panels (ok on black and gunmetal cars) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 (edited) Outrageous bodykits, huge wheels, bright interiors & overly blue HID kits/bulbs. Edited May 14, 2010 by robin (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcAB10 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Tinted rear lights/c-west light covers... Hate them, chavtastic imo subwoofers/ice installs.. imo most just make the car look cheap. (subtle ones can be fine) The little spoiler that goes on the top of the rear glass.. Ruins the lines of the supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I find the current party line "stock is best" annoying. Normally handed out by those with painted dash panels, bling wheels, carbon lips and rear diffusers. Oh and holes in their bonnets. If you truely like the stock look then don't mod it. If you mod a bit your as bad as those like me who have aftermarket bumpers etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dandan Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Chrome wheels Massive rear spoilers Ill fitting gauge pods in the top glovebox area Angel eyes Chavvy number plate fonts Ill fitting aftermarket bonnets Dash panels that clash with the dash material Boost controller solenoids hanging by their hoses in the engine bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I find the current party line "stock is best" annoying. Normally handed out by those with painted dash panels, bling wheels, carbon lips and rear diffusers. Oh and holes in their bonnets. I prefer the stock 'plus' look, but I HAD to get rid of the walnut dash! The result was much better though. Any extra 'air flow' mods, but I do like the Trial rear.

AndrewOW Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 What like? Bigger heater vents? Aftermarket, and mostly ridiculous spoilers (rather than stock), rear windscreen spoilers, silly front bumpers that you can't use around town. That kind of thing. Present company excepted though.

I will add TRD spoiler, never liked them, dont know what everyone see in them, stock is far nicer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
