Pudsey Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Some great work taken place here. Really looking forward to seeing the wheels on, although you do know you will be cleaning them daily. Like the closet gauges too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the closet gauges too. Thanks mate yeah I know I had a set of white wheels on one of my cars in the past and was a pain to keep clean, back then though it was my daily car so hoping this one will be better as I got my little MR2 to take out in bad conditions lol. Thanks thats probably my favourite mod id say keeps the dash nice and clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra matt Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Nice work mate the only bit Im not sure about is the step at the rear bumper ! How come they did not blend it in? Also what going on with the rear arch where it meets the side skirt looks a bit strange could just be the pictures, Look forward to seeing it on its wheels :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what going on with the rear arch where it meets the side skirt looks a bit strange could just be the pictures, Look forward to seeing it on its wheels :-) It's blended as much as possible without having to go back in on its self and the side skirts is just where the 2 pieces of carbon meet, il know better tomorrow when I pick it up but I quite like it from the pics Cheers il add more pics throughout the week as I do the finishing touches Edited July 20, 2017 by ShawnPreece (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike2JZ Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Bodywork came out really nice, gonna looks great once your other wheels are on! How about getting a slightly smaller numberplate for the front bumper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about getting a slightly smaller numberplate for the front bumper? cheers mate yep that is my plan, when I ordered this one I only ordered it quickly thinking about having a square plate that fits in the front mouth but it was bigger than I expected so I will order an import size plate for it (this one is only stuck on so that I can change it when I get one) do you know a good place where I can order import size plates?

Scott Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 What do the import plates look like? Really fancy a set myself if they're small Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnPreece Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) What do the import plates look like? Really fancy a set myself if they're small They are the same but smaller so have less space above and below the letters/numbers, I had one on my old Supra.....

Scott Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Thanks I'm finding getting a plate an absolute nightmare. All I want is road legal gapping, load regal lettering and trimmed as small as I can get it. I've calculated what I thought the size should be but a few "custom" plate places have suggested it would end up bigger than a standard plate. I just don't get it. If I could, I would buy a standard size plate then cut it to size, leaving the gap as required. Unfortunately that would take off the writing at the bottom showing the supplier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
