Washed and waxed my car the other day with a friend who also owns a MKIII... Golf. Came out REALLY nice. Ended up taking some pictures.

Yes, I finally got rid of those bling bling wheels. I'm running on spray painted 5 spokes now. Came out REALLY good. Here's a comparison picture:

I ended up taking the center cap off because it's obviously a different material than the rest of the wheel and the glossy black finish of the spray paint didn't stay.

Specs on my Supra: 1991 Supra turbo. Sunroof, 5 speed. Zoon's DDP, 4" cone filter, Turbo XS BOV, PWR Radiator.

Just ordered a Spearco style intercooler and some 90 deg hoses from Driftmotion. I'm getting a shop to make me some IC hardpipes for cheap. You can't see in my pics, but I really need to replace my front lip... haha

That is a NICE car, keep it clean :icon_bigg . I do vote for putting the centercaps back on though, I'm not a fan of the capless wheels.

Thanks. I bought the car from a guy who owned it and kept it garaged for just about most of it's life. I feel guilty as I can't garage it myself. The car is pretty much perfect. No blemishes on the exterior, save for a little scratch on the gas door and a little nick on the pass. mirror. What pisses me off is that I've noticed that the windshield is a magnet for rocks flung up by semis.

The interior is extremely perfect, no cracks or rips in the dash, center console is virtually new. The only thing that's abnormal is the plastic see-through glass for the gauge cluster is kinda fogged up. Can you believe this car has 247k miles on it? Timing belts have been replaced twice, and the head gasket was done a few years ago.

I want my intercooler already. It should be here tomorrow.

I'm deciding on what kind of tip I want. My white Supra had a Megan racing 4" tip that rumbled like no other.
