lol, shhhhh, thou shall not speaketh about the forsaken hood and fender...

even worse is the other fender now looks as bad from assholes in my work parking lot...

Not a huge fan of tint as all the windows have it, but its starting to peel on some nad I took off all of it from the driver's side window cause it was too hard to see through cause it was peeling...

No wheel comments yet? LOL

first, i will be polishing the intake manifold and twin turbo piping. second, the valve covers and sparkplug/timing belt covers will be painted.

samco radiator hoses, stainless steel braid plumbing, and other small details here and there.

and as for the interior, the stock shifter will be shortened and ill probably pick up a stock shift knob and a nice black leather shift boot.

for the exterior, i will be getting a set of better tail lights and giving them a nice tint with clear coat for a glossy finish.

other than that, im pretty happy with the car the way it is. what do you guys think.

Funky...you need to go lower I guess, and where are those moldings? +I like when the pre89 spoiler is moved back a hole or so.(like mine) :D
Lagged....I'd get a center cap for the rim, and the color of those rims doesn't seem to suite with the car IMO.

^^^^ well if ur not going to replace the rims, i suggest a bomex whale tail wing and a front lip of some sort to set off some more flare. cause those pizza cutters aint doin it with or without spacers and the wing just looks like there is somethig wrong. if u have to keep those wheels, i would say shoot them a flat black. at least shoot some black paint inside the wheel wells too cause that dirty crud all up in there makes ur car still look dirty even after a bath! i wouldnt change anything on the interior. very clean.

also shave the dog!

Haha, nice. I agree on the wheel wells, but as soon as I drive 1 mile from my home, they probably are going to look the same :D Quote me from carfashion how much would shipping of a lip cost to Estonia :)
Though I don't understand the concept of shaving this particular dog :D
Btw. Nick, your car is almost perfect. I know it even without the pics posted :)

Ok, here's mine. 86.5 Supra. It's still rough on the outside though but got the interior cleaned up. GTE engine now sitting in it but still working out bugs and need to clean the engine bay.


Wow, that leather is in good shape for original upholstery...
Get rid of the SUPRA badge on the rear(underneath the spoiler), the stripes on the side of the car, lower it and then go 5spd. Aside from that...I could say things like 89+ taillights blah blah, but it's a matter of personal taste on that one - Clean car overall

1)Lowering WAYYYYY down on the priority list
2)Leather rewrap of steering wheel....absofreakinglutely
3)I dig the Pre-89 look
Stripes are toast and will have to go :(

I like my pre89 look too, but just the spoiler is moved a hole backwards, that's it. It isn't flush with the end. And damn, too bad those stripes are bad, I really like the SUPRA and things :D
