suprastanger507mgte said:Very nice job on the interior man. It definitley looks updated.
I had AC Autotechnic gauges in my other Supra and loved it. It had a nice color combo and worked flawlessly.
Great to see a build like this where things are done within a certain budget and tastefully as well.
What color for the Exterior? Black I hop e( Sorry I am biased that way ) lol
Great job.
Thanks man! the color is coming soon

Man I did this last year, if I remember correctly I removed the lock assembly from the 87 housing, removed the plactic around the lock mechanism and I was able to make it fit in the 89 housing. If anyone has pics of a 87 lock assembly I can identify the part I removed.
I forgot to get a good pic's of me installing the 89+ spoiler, but let me tell you it is a pain in the ass...lol
If you are going to do it make sure you get ALL the mounting hardware with the spoiler, trying to source it all is a pain in the ass. You need the little plastic brackets as well as the little inverted holder things that go into the body to hold the metal points on the bottom of each side wing piece. It also involves drilling many many holes in the car and cuting holes in the deck lid support to access the new bolt locations.

Ok, a couple pics of when I first got it back, more to come! Sorry about the crappy lighting, it does the paint no justice, looks much better in person. I am going to try and get some nice sunny pic's
I still have to put on the side markers, nose badge and spoiler side wings
I also have to move the nose back a hair and the front bumper up a 1/4 inch

The flakes are small but there is definately alot of metallic which is good :evil2: I was very close between this color and black, I am very happy I went with the graphite metallic. Black would have been too plain.
Well the interior I did last year. The body work I started in May. Just decided to make a thread now that its close to done
