SaqTRD Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Would not be interested it changing the TS kit, I get where you are coming from but it would be a mistake to change in IMO I hear ya, i thought as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I might actually do this at some stage, need to see it in plain TS Gold first and take it from there, perhaps shadow gold Top Secret down the sides and across the bonnet Think it would look brilliant and still in keeping with the history of the car. Look forward to following your progress with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glanza_Mike Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I agree about the Top Secret decals fwiw. Think it would look real nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 TS gold paint would suit that TS Supra perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemanhead Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Needs the top secret bonnet and full decals, should look really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have spoken to Ibrar about the wheels, he wanted to see the finished colour to get the best colour options, he has some new colours in now and I am looking forward to discussing this with him, small number plate is needed, might actually get a private reg on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Brilliant - I always feel like TS kits should be gold. Top marks Dean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 the car looks 100% better in gold you going to go full on top secret with all the graphics too? I agree that this would be the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
add heywood Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Looks lovely Dean if I was you I'd sell the Varis bonnet to one of the Ridox kitted guys on here and get yourself the top secret bonnet to compliment your car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Looks superb. I loved it in silver but the gold had always suited the kits heritage. Imo the decals are definetly needed now and maybe the bonnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 I understand the styling questions, the car is Marmite anyway, I would be reducing the value if I changed the originality of this car, the colour change will already throw up questions upon sale in the future as it is not how it left TS, I want to treat the car as an investment now as well and a weekend toy so with the exception of a wheel refurb, HKS BOV and maybe some TS graphics it will stay the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudsey Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Congratulations on the colour choice. Big step to change the colour of any car, but I am sure it will turn out great. Nice plate as you say will finish it off nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Supes Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Looks really nice in the gold. I agree with Jake though, Top Secret decals are a must. The car warrants them. I'd be happy to fit them free of charge if Top Secret supplied the graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Supes Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 No problem mate, it would be a pleasure. It would worth giving them a shout for authenticity, but if not, you would need someone to redraw the original artwork. That wouldn't be the end of the world, mind you.

jimojameso Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Looks so much better in gold! Love it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Very nice! Did you get the paint off Top Secret in the end? Single stage paint? Did you get the engine bay done? Only External item I might change would be the rear tail lights for facelift (Charcoal inset integrates with the Gold as opposed to the black) or if you really want to go out , LED rear lamps but you would need to eliminate the rear reflector in the lenses for it to look good , same lenses as I had on mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 That colour matches the bodykit perfectly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
