drift_bear Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) I didnt want to make loads of trips taking bits so decided to fit it My body shop is only 15mins from my house, so not to bad. I like it much better already, I think you should leave it wingless! Not a chance, I'm not a fan of wingless tbh, ruins the looks of the car IMHO, there are cars that pull it off though like marcAB10's Red matches the silver very nice Haha I know right :p Edited June 30, 2014 by drift_bear (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtin90 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Already looks much better. Really looking forward to seeing this in stock form. As Jamesy said though, a new set of wheels will really set off the look of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxluc Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 After reading a lot around, 18" should be the optimal rim size for a Supra, with respect to handling and grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drift_bear Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 So I thought today would be a good day to go and check on the supra and see how it's getting on with the changes. After the stock body parts being at the shop for 18days (since they were off the car) and the car being there for the last 9days.... NOTHING has changed!! It's still the same state it was in and the parts aren't even started. I'm due to get the car back next Monday.... starting to think that's not going to happen now. I'm pretty much painting every panel on the car apart from the doors and roof, so I'm considering just making it a full respray job, it won't be much difference in the price tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 If you can stretch to the full respray Alex, then you will get the best finish. Much better than trying to blend it in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than trying to blend it in That's not the main concern tbh sunny, it's more the fact it was ment to be done and ready for Monday! Only thing that's done is the rear lights are off the car, he said with the amount if bond holding on the rear bumper at the spat parts, there's a good change it will break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drift_bear Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 After thinking about it over night, I have decided to get a full respray in the original 199 silver, glass out and etc! Hopefully won't be to long but not holding my breath! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
