Well, to start off, I wanna thank Mike (You know who you are) for being nice enough to give me the taillights at nearly no cost (Possibly polishing in the future).

Now, I didn't know I was taking on that big of a task, but we removed EVERYTHING in the hatch to get these suckers on, trust me, we took more than enough time. At it was worth every bit of work.

I'm not going to force you to read a wall of text like always, so here's the before and after. What do you guys think?? It gives me that warm feeling inside when I drive by my house, or look at it for the first time of day :naughty:

And I still need to paint that white strip on the center piece.

And to keep them clean, and to keep people from SLASHING MY TIRES!!! I welded for a guy and he gave me this.

Fence to go from here to Mexico and back, and tarp used to cover a recreational pool (Like 100 ft)

Yeah I'm not old enough to drive it ='[

But you can never be too young to work on a Supra, as long as you know what your doing, and you take your time.

OH and also, I changed the gauge color to blue, and re-installed the stock gauges (I had 93-98 gauges installed)

Aw, poo. I was hoping to see something crazy wild out of the ordinary.

But it does look better. :)

Believe it or not, on my midnight blue '88, I swapped to 89+ tails as well acouple years ago. As a whole, I like the style better than pre89 lights...

But lets face it...

Look at the back of a late 90's, early 2000's Buick Centurys...

89+ 3 Piece Tails and 2000 Buick Century taillights look the SAME. :nono:

Need I say more?
