TheChin Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 All those logos, have you got all that on your car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Not to my taste at all really, but it ain't my car, so go ahead and spoil it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 not to my tastes, but as others have said, its your motor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 It does look a little OTT IMHO, but I wouldn't dare tell someone their car looks shite! Common guys, just because it's not to your taste there's no need to verbally assault him. I quite like the bonnet effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChin Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 He's going for this kind of look. Aren't we so nasty lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion Pete, maybe I was a little OTT I guess some folk would find fault with my car in certain ways as well, I guess it comes down to personal tastes at the end of the day, perhaps I should have been a little more tactful im known for being a bit shart tongued > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common guys, just because it's not to your taste there's no need to verbally assault him. I quite like the bonnet effect. Agreed! Just because its not to your taste, no need to be so harsh. Thats not the mkivSupra.net community I know. All the best with the car buddy - its your passion and pride, I encourage that. If only all 16 year olds had the same enthusiasm about a hobby, it might keep them off the streets! Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cashpoint Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 looks like the car has eyes lashes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChin Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 True true. As being one of those to jump on the band wagon at the start i didnt realise his age. To have a car like that at that age is a damn good sight and as with all of us your views of how things can be done change. Just keep going matey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 bah, decals = shite/chav/midlife crisis Only ever seen it done properly once and that was by Trial in Japan Glad you added that last bit mate Otherwise agreed, I would never entertain putting my own design of graphics on a car And tbh I never thought I would own a heavily graphic'd car either Generally don't like graphics\vinyls.

Henk Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Beauty & eye of beholder I guess, but I am the exact opposite, I like less badges, less logos. I prefer completely debadged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I'll also apologise to the younger viewer too. Sorry. Just go carefully on the graphics. Remember less is more. Capiche? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlton Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 graphics are a way of making the car stand out against others - if you saw an identical Supra to Muffleman's side by side without the graphics would you look twice?? I doubt it. How would I make my Supe stick out from all the others with the same kit? Graphics, either that or show them the rear as not a lot of people have the rear bumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Whatever floats your boat matey, I think you deserve some credit for being a little different, and as Steve said, putting passion into something worthwhile. Personally, not a fan of graphics, but don't like debadged either. I like a car nice and standard........with a large single, TS front, Trial Rear, TRD wing, Bomex Skirts and big polished rims. Hold on, that's that git Andrews (SupraAyf) car! Shame his isn't black though hey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 For that to work you really need some skirts and a aftermarket front nose cone. It looks awful just now imho (sorry) but with the above on the car I think it will look ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
