hogmaw Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 As the car will be 15 years old this year there were some niggly things going on with the bodywork so it was time for a complete respray. While we were at it we removed the rear sidelights altogether (never did like them on the facelift, never saw the point in them), also the stupid stick-on rear foglight (finally!!!) and the grommets where the rear spoiler had been attached (again, finally got round to it after all this time). Same colour as before, gunmetal grey, which many say is the best colour for the Supra Anyway here are some pics, I'm very happy with the result, they even managed to get some shine the the aluminium CCW wheels which were starting to fade. With a full valet too I'm very happy to drive it now in the summer sunshine http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/9207/9board.jpg[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedrosixfour Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Lovely work. If you don't mind me saying I think your rear wheels need to be spaced out a little to really set them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes totally agree, in fact I've already started the search to find some spacers, hopefully won't take too long and if anyone has some pointers where to get them that would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
