Welcome, very nice looking car you have there!

 

I think you're right keeping it stock power a for a while, it'll give you time to get to know the car and we all know the roads are very slippy right now. BPU is something to look forward to though, it completely transforms the car :)

 

but i like the c11 but open to other like the ones on miami site

 

Veilside is possibly the worst looking and yet over used front spoiler on a supra, and now very dated. Stilllen and do-luck are my personal favourites.

 

The rear spoiler you have is the standard one, if you want to change have a look at Greddy (similar to stock, but lower), TRD or RMM ones, they're about the only tasteful replacements.

 

All in my opinion of course :D

James, I would definitely keep the Top Secret type II nose personally, I'm assuming it's a genuine one so should be good quality, they are also a lot rarer than the very common and dated Veilside.

 

I would fit a set of facelift lights (the ones fitted to the late model Supra), they will really transform the look.

is it a top secret? the asian boy that my mate bought it off before i got it said it was a veilside (i knew right away its not)

 

lights are on my list of things to do interior and wheels first just after i get it serviced to find out what the squeak is under the bonnet sounds like a loos belt, goes away after warm up

Yes it is the earlier type II Top Secret bumper (I have the type III fitted, see link in my sig for pics), the side skirts also look like Top Secret ones. They will most likely be genuine, so will be made from good quality GRP.

 

The only drawback about your bumper is that it is designed to fit the earlier pre-facelift orange indicators, so if you want to fit the facelift clear indicators, you will need to open the hole out a bit. This is one of the differences between the Type II and Type III bumpers, along with a different shaped lower lip.
