pezzler Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Had your dad owned the car long? Only reason I ask is that green supra with a TRD spoiler, and black stripes up the bonnet used to be spotted around my home town (Banbury, Oxfordshire). I wont say what I thought everytime I saw it (), but it looks like the same car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 He had it Two and a half years but it been in the north east since 2001 before that it was white, I've seen other green supras on here in show/meet threads I'm not a fan of the stripe and it will be going it's a carbon bonnet with the green painted either side:/ I'm ganna do the bonnet all black and was thinking of painting the spoiler black too until I can afford too get the whole car painted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 I've just removed the spacers went to get it motd and nearly ripped my tyres to shreads, it passed:) the mot so the tester must have thought it was ok, it doesn't even look close but when it hits a bump or goes round a tight bend it was rubbing badly, I only had them on the back, think I'm gonna have to get the arches rolled sick as a parrot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
