Hey guys i just got a 1990 supra n/a out here in CA as a daily driver. Right now i'm really only focusing on cosmetic stuff cause i dnt have the money for performance. But here is what i have so for... I got some widefender flares off here from slow supra and a kaminari rear bumper from him also that im adding on. i also got the parts i needed to repair the damage to the front from him. im gonna try and install some of it tomorrow. ive put up a pic of my supra along with a pic of the fenderflares and bumper i got from him. tell me what yall think and if anyone has anything they want to donate to a fellow supra owner in need like cosmetic or performance that would be awesome thanks guys.

Finished putting on the new fenders, rear bumper, fender flares, and header panel today will try and post pics tomorrow or Friday. right now the fender flares don't look real good being a different color than the car and also not fitting flush with the car but once i get the money im gonna try and either bondo or fiberglass them to be nice and smooth with the rest of the car. but for now it works. now im in the process of looking for some huge wheel spacers. the stock saw blades with the stock stance just don't cut it. they are way to far in compared to the flares. but ne way that's what i have so far. if anyone has any advice don't be afraid to speak up. im always welcome to constructive criticism.

Those fender flares are actually pretty cool. How much wider are those flares supposed to make the body? Just look at any wheel combination someone else has on a Supra for the right width/offset to math your flares. For instance I run 17x9.0 with a 24mm offset on my Supra and it is basically perfect as far as fitment and flushness. So assuming your flares are one inch wider you could run 9.0 inch wheels with a 0mm offset and have it look nice.

the front flares are about an inch maybe and inch and a half wider and the back one are at least three inches. they are pretty big and the stock sawblades just look weird now. but i dont have any extra money to put into it... thats y im asking for donations lol. and i need to get some fiber glass work done to fill all the gaps... the fenders arent actually for a supra but the guy who owned them before me cut them to where they would fit so with some fabrication and paint they would look pretty kickass... but im still looking for donations, wheel spacers, used wheels, anything really, and im happy to pay shipping unless i would be able to pick it up... but yea its a huge work in progress and its also more of an experiment car to see what looks good for my 88 turbo back in kentucky.

yea once i get the money (long way away) im gonna get some custom fiberglass work done to smooth everything out and have it all nice to the body. right now it is mostly just i had the flares and didn't want them to sit in my apartment forever so i put them on.

I dig the aero, was curious what flares would look like on the Mark III

That wing isn't supposed to be a double-stacker right? it's supposed to replace the stock wing not add unto it??

NARSupra- Yea it actually is a double stack, i tried installing it without the stock spoiler and it doesn't fit to the hatch deck. it is made to install onto the center piece of the three piece spoiler and sit flush with the side pieces.

Nomad707 & Detonation666- First if you actually read what was in the thread you would know that the way the flares are now is temporary until i get the funds to fully fiberglass them to the body so they fit correctly and smoothly. And i'm not an idiot, i installed a body kit on my 1993 s-10 with the same concept of the drill and screw method, but along with that i took rustolium paint along with a anti rust spray solution and coated the areas that were drilled before and after the kit and flares were installed. It's been about 3 years since i did that to the s-10 and there isn't a spot of rust around the drill holes. just because something looks bad at the moment first off doesn't mean the owner doesn't know what he's doing and second yea im sure it does look bad, because as the thread previously stated it is TEMPORARY meaning IT IS NOT FINISHED. so before you say um... or is this a joke how about you actually take the time to read things and realize not everyone has the means to take something one day and turn it into something different the next. thank you for your time and consideration (no offense):doublebir

That's interesting, never seen a wing like that before. That's different.

Did you say that was from Kaminari?

I'm selling them also. i paid $300 for the flares along with the rear bumper and fenders with predrilled holes. if you would like to purchase them i will sell them for $250 plus shipping. You will get all four flares, Kaminari rear bumper cut to fit with rear flares, and both front fenders. or if you have the stock rear bumper and stock front fenders in any color i will trade with $50 on top from you. i dont like the way the flares look only because i dont have the means to finish them. if you are able to do that i will gladly sell them either for the $250 plus shipping, or for the stock parts and $50 on ur side. let me know.
