Got the tail lights mounted and started wet sanding them. Going to pick up some meguires buffing compound from the paint shop tomorow and really get these things shining.
Notice how i didnt paint part of the trim. Didnt think it was part of the moulding, oh well. Ill touch it up when I do the hatch.
Just a nice pic.
Notice the missing grill? Im looking for one in mint condition, mine got ran over!

Got my prosport gauge finaly, they just happen to be out of stock when I ordered mine so I had to wait. Also got there oil filter sandwich plate, and gauge blank.
Got it in, took me around 2 and a half hours. Only problem I ran into was, figuring out how to fit the pressure sender in the little amount of space I had. Also always remember to seal the threads! Had to pull it back out and use some gasket maker on the threads.
Received package 1 of 2 containing 89+ trim from the uk.
Notice the bubble marker! Super sweet! Thats UKDM TYTE!

Cleaned up the trim peices with a little simple green.
Found a few extra peices. Anyone know where they might go?

Lol...those go in between the rear fog lights. You don't need to use those since you already have the USDM 89+ center piece. Just gotta paint yours white to match.
American and Japanese Supras didn't have the rear fogs, so those are useless...
Also, Non-North American Supras didn't have rear side markers, so you'll have to cut a hole, or find a set of NA rear trim if you want to keep yours.

UPDATES!
Cup holders and console lid from pick and pull.
89+ door panel also from local pick and pull.
Made this for the rear seat delete. Will have a JL audio 10 mounted here, maybe even the battery.
New Dynomax 4 inch Race Bullet. Will hopefully have it mounted this weekend.

VERY nice..
you can switch over your arm rest cover if it's in nice condition, just un-staple it and un-glue the cup holder rest, and glue the original fabric on...
personally I prefer 86.5-88 door panels because the little "grille" underneath the main one always looks ugly and torn up, whereas pre 89's had holes..
I do like the 89+ handles and buttons, though..
(of course now I have 91 panels..
)

My other armrest was just as bad, I would really like to recover it in leather or some recaro cloth.
Little confused on what your trying to say but the passenger panel came off a 90 model supra. Only thing that I used off the old one was the window switch.
86.5-88 panels had a bunch of holes under the triangular speaker cover, and 89/90 panels had a small speaker grille instead, that usually tears and rips off. And finally 91/92's had a much larger, rounder speaker cover that covered where the holes/grille used to be on older panels...

thanks, I think your the first person that has said that.
Update: Got my exhaust fabricated, well most of it. Took me nearly 5 hours, but i think it was worth it! Here is how it started.
And here is what I ended up with!
Size comparison of the old exhaust.
The Fart Cannon!
I will try and have a video up tomorow for everyone to hear it.

Yes. I still have the stock 2.5 header but I put in a 3" test pipe and from there back it is 4".
I dont know about 4" thats kinda overkill for what your trying to acomplish. But i still really like what your doing with the car non the less. Keep up the good work.
