SPAWNING AN INTERCEPTOR
haha thats true man i could see a girl driving that car(and she does) but not a dude. the hood is another topic though
I like how the paint is set up aswell, pink wouldnt be my choice for a colour tho... maybe a charcoal metallic kind of colour and black, would look pretty good with some matching rims. I wouldnt do that to my car tho, but it is very well done, and I respect the owner for going out on a limb and doing what they like.
It's all about effort. If the paint job is done properly, nice smooth clearcoat, nothing looks/feels shoddy, and it's what she was going for, then great...good for her. I can completely respect her for that.
Black/Pink combo looks cool on the outside, but...with a blue interior? I guess she's planning on changing that out at some point in the future, but...seems like she jumped the gun on that--if it were me I would've swapped out the interior first. Any interior color would go decently with pearl white, but...only a few stock interior colors--gray and black come to mind--would really go with that paint scheme.
And a few more things that irk me slightly about the work, and it's really no big deal I guess, but it made me think--on her cardomain page, the first thing I saw was the
"OKAY EVERYONE I FINALLY UPDATED! GOT THE KINESIS! THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO VOTED ON THE RIMS IT HELPED A LOT!
"
...So basically, she had some money to throw at the car, wanted some rims, and wanted to let the members of cardomain vote on which ones to get to help her decide? I guess I can understand asking a few close friends for their valued opinions to see what they think would fit best or look good, but asking total strangers seems a little bit like a cry for attention.
Maybe I completely misunderstood the poll, or maybe I'm just waay personal about choosing upgrades for my Supra, and have too much pride in the car for what it is without over-the-top custom work. I don't really care if anyone else likes the parts I buy for my car, I only care that they produce the desired result. Lastly, when I show a pic of my almost stock engine bay I don't preface it with "Sry don't puke I know it's stock but it'll get pimped soon!!" or anything like that.
You've obviously spent great time and money on your car, Jen, and I respect that, please don't take offense to what I've said. Just be weary of modifying your car with the sole intent to please others, or to model it after a trendy fad. This is your car--it doesn't have to be pimped out Fast'n'Furious style to be fast, enjoyable or unique.

ummm ok? i dont see anything wrong w/ it. no i wouldnt want pink graphics on mine, but guess what it isnt MY car. if it is something like really bad ideas that are poorly done such as a hack job of skyline taillights or something, thats one thing. but even still, i might laugh at the poor work, but not nec what the idea was. i applaud people that come up with their own ideas and designs.
i just cant stand it when people just piss all over someone else's work just because they dont like it.

She did everything very clean as far as I see. I like it.
Looks alot better than my car, I need paint horribly, and if hers were all black I would love it.
Looks like she came from a big Supra family and knew what she was doing.
I had a very similar idea awhile ago with the hood, But I wanted a reverse scoop behind the turbo to pull hot air out from the exhaust side of the engine. But I think the way she has it would also be a good way to sweep cold air over the turbo, down the downpipe, and out the bottom.

Im surprised this thread never got locked... usually something like this does.... really surprised when they were getting a little frisky and i missed out... yea i think if my gf saw the car she would be like "that is sexy" so i guess a women likes what a women likes... just hopefully no MEN out there will put pink graphics and pink underbody lights
and i missed out... yea i think if my gf saw the car she would be like "that is sexy" so i guess a women likes what a women likes... just hopefully no MEN out there will put pink graphics and pink underbody lightsI give her credit her car is shiney and it runs, im just about 500 bucks from having my engine pimped including suspension lol.......

ffwall:

I think it looks pretty awesome, but I've always liked custom cars. Hey it's her car, she made it her own, that's cool in my book. Plus it's not all ghetto like alot of MKIII I see. Here is where she said she got the idea for the paint job...........
I for one disagree, who gives a fu<k how fast a car is if it looks like ass, it still won't get any respect!NDBoost said:
