Yes new hood insulation! Also two brand new rear hatch shocks.
Lowered my supra today... Was fun, easy and had the perfect results that I was looking for from my setup. My setup of choice: Bilstein 3-way height adjustable shocks with stock 89+ springs!
Before:
After: Lowest Perch
Gonna order the rear set soon!

Very easy to install actually. To change the height would require removal of shock and compressing the spring to adjust the perch. Not something you'd wanna be doing a whole lot. I am impressed with them though. Now my front shocks are stiff! The rear is completely blown as you can push down on the body of the car and it bounces pretty easy. Can't wait to get my rear set so I can tell a true difference with the ride all around. I may add a sway bar or two after the shocks are done. Will just have to see 
So I've been up to a few things. Powdercoating a spare set intake pieces for the 7m. May install them or may sell them. I love the color and finish though!
Close-up: It has sparkle in it in the sunlight!
Gonna finish polishing the flat area around the 3000 lettering then do the letters in red!
Soon going to be powdercoating an afm and upper intake manifold the same color. I will have a whole set for sale or for use!

Thanks! Yea I think I'll get them. They are coming with pretty good tires also. Now I just need to rebuild the rear end suspension and lower the car in the rear!
Damn, I would hate if that happened to me. I have been looking at rims since I got the car and finally have my mind made up and then have someone throw some wheels at me that actually look good, but not what I wanted!! You have to take them if they offer to good to pass up. Maybe you can sell them later on when you are ready to buy wheels and make your money back.
I should be getting them! I need to lower the rear end now... Stay tuned for entire rear end suspension rebuild ;p I have all the new OEM parts.
