Can't take pictures cause they are all wrapped up nicely in toyota packaging haha. Nah I would if I can find my camera charger. My battery is almost dead. soon young son, soon!

 

[Bluechulappa]

My christmas present! Isn't it pretty?

 

[gtsfirefighter]

Very nice. But what is wrong with the bumper you have now?

I gotta see this car in person someday!

 

[Bluechulappa]

Has a hole in the middle area where the license plate goes.

Haha I was messing around in the garage just now.

It actually would fit if I did a bit of cutting. Would be a good sleeper cover to someone who didn't know about supras! :evil2:

Happy new year! Update *** As requested some pics of the new oem moldings. I didnt want to unwrap them all yet so just a couple are shown. Everything else is my newly painted interior trim pieces. And if you notice the clear bag with a tan looking square thing that says toyota? That a new bag for the jack :icon_razz

And the passenger seat that didn't clean up very well. I'll keep trying. I will post my video in a bit...

Try some oxy-clean. The guy doing the commercials might be an idiot, but the stuff actually works pretty well most of the time.

Should I dare ask how much the moldings cost new from the factory?

Wow! You might have to take the fabric off the seat to clean it. I wonder what happened? It never looked that bad. I wonder if the heat from the steam cleaner did something to it.

The rest of your interior pieces looks great, in fact I thought it was all brand new.

Damn I dunno I'm pissed cause it looks horrible now. Hopefully I can fix it though. Imma try oxy clean. I guess the steam brought the stains to the surface. gonna work on it tomorrow and try and put some interior back together!

Just saw the video and was the first to post. Your car sounds great. Can barely tell it was running. The drivers seat looks good. I'm glad it went to you.

Yeah, try the Oxy clean. I hear that stuff is miraculous.

 

[Bluechulappa]

Gonna goto target tomorrow morning and get the real oxy clean. the last stuff i had was a fake oxy cleaner and it sucked. Yea the exhaust is quiet huh? I wanted it like that. Full 3" exhaust from the wastegate and apexi intake. All you can hear is a low growl and the turbo spooling then the bosch bpv blow!:evil2:

Def. gonna have it painted once I start my new job. Paint is in okay condition. Looks worse in person but it's def. not horrible. When it warms up I'm gonna wash her for the first official time and maybe put some wax on cause the paint will be awhile...

Man, I work for a Toyota dealer selling parts and all I can say is "holy s*&%"! Nice collection of new OEM parts you've acquired! Did you also pay the 15% referal fees on all that stuff coming from other depots? Or did you wait the 2-3 weeks for them? I know GST doesn't keep that stuff! LOL!

 

[Bluechulappa]

Okay so I worked on the seat more tonight. I think the original one is in better condition at this point but I still plan on getting some oxyclean. Put some interior pieces on with close supervision from my lil buddy J.R.

Can anyone say milo's booster seat :biglaugh:
I dunno if you can see in the pics but I put the interior pieces for the back drivers side window and backseat trim. More updates tomorrow
