heartworm Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I got my car back briefly for a trip to Leeds, then its back to the bodyshop to be finished, and to get a TT transplant, but my progress so far is this: http://content.altnation.com/gallery/files/2/7/4/4/supra1.JPG Started off blue, this photo makes it look much better than it is. removed the decals and that horrible chrome look as well as those horrible TRD racing strips across the windscreen and rear screen. http://content.altnation.com/gallery/files/2/7/4/4/dscf0434.jpg Got a base colour of gold first http://content.altnation.com/gallery/files/2/7/4/4/dscf0439.jpg Then a first layer of orange http://content.altnation.com/gallery/files/2/7/4/4/car3.jpg then orange.. http://content.altnation.com/gallery/files/2/7/4/4/car2.jpg http://content.altnation.com/gallery/files/2/7/4/4/car1.jpg Indicators are temporary I have replacements, this was just to get me to Leeds. Fitted glass headlights, a TRD spoiler, veilside arches and a bomex (Do-luck?) front. I know it needs new wheels, that can come at the end of uni I think. Its got to go back to the bodyshop to get flattened and painted, and the TT swap when the engine bay is getting painted to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Way too fussy with too many lines doing too many things for my (boring) tastes but it looks like a decent job. I liked it better in the "before" shot though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That blue was a really poor paint job and needed something done, I decided to go get it all done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
