Dave_SZ-R Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Hello chaps, Just a little mod, but it tidies up the back end rather nicely I feel. The car is coming together bodywork-wise now, wanted the Blitz rear because you dont see many of them. I like the de-spoilered look too, but the big, shonky aeriel poking 20 feet in the air kinda 'spoiled' the look. So, the next question is: to fit a TRD spoiler or not? Opinions please!

jevansio Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Now you've gone to all that trouble, I'd say not. (or if you do get a spare hatch & fit it to that so you can swap ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRX Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Looks mint as is, i dont think it needs the TRD. Did you think about removing the centre light thing aswell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdMorris Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Looks good as is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kill1308 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I personally think it looks alright as it is, but in the same vein I don't think fitting a spoiler would do its looks any harm either. I quite like the fact it doesn't have a spoiler though, makes it a bit more unique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantasupra Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 looks perfect, dont change. b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Needs a spoiler with some straight lines on it IMO, to match up with the rest of the kit. Cheers, Brian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts as well, the straight lines of the TRD wing will go nicely with the 'diffuser' bit of the Blitz rear, as well as the Do-Luck front and Bomex skirts. MRX, I kinda like the brake light in the centre, took all the badges off the rear, I like smoothness as you may have gathered. The priority right now is sorting out some (proper) wheels, then Ill look at spoilers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Looks great mate mines going in for removal of wiper badges and jet etc , hope looks as good as yors!! I also toyed with putting a trd on my spoilerless supe and took the plunge in the end so having one fittd when the wiper comes off - as mentioned already it wont do the looks any harm!!!

pistonbroke Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Love it mate. Abflug low level spoiler would also suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themodifiedkid Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Looking spot on mate. I usually think the supra has to have its famous spoiler to make the look bit to be honest that looks gorgeous without it, I would keep it as it is. Im loving the fact that the aerial has been removed and smoothed over, I wish I had done that to mine!!!! Good job buddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Have u got an ariel anywhere else? Or does the radio not really bother you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I''ve removed the aerial on mine, I'll be getting one of the internal ones, then running it up the weather strip utilising the original aerial loom from the rear quarter and mounting it at the top of the rear window. With the rear window tinted, you'll never see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul mac Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 slight criticism but you forgot to remove the wash wipe nozzle on the rear hatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_SZ-R Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 slight criticism but you forgot to remove the wash wipe nozzle on the rear hatch Was wondering whod be the first to pick up on that!!! Im thinking about modifying it to squirt cream on girls' boobs as I drive past... Dont have an aeriel at the mo, but somehow it still recieves a decent signal. As pistonbroke said, Im just gonna get an internal one as my rear screen is heavily tinted. I cant recommend the de-spoilered look enough, everyone comments on how much they like it, and it somehow makes the car look a little more modern.
