toyoti143 Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 for my,it´s perfect now,perhaps a carbon fibre rear diffuser or trial rear,only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Persoanlly I think the facelift lights & fog removal will be a big +, maybe new wheels (i'd put whatever budget you had in mind into the wheels alone but thats just me) Here's a pic of the fog gone & diffuser, the rest are a bit beyond my skills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevins Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Imho, the facelift lights just don't look right on a red car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Wow facelift fronts look terrible on a red car Imho, the facelift lights just don't look right on a red car. It'll be more to do with the colour balance/contrast being off tbh, best to find some pics of red cars with facelifts if you wanna know what they will really look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevins Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Thats what I'm on about mate, I have seen a few red supras with facelifts and they just seem odd, think its to do with their being alot of black in the lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 I weren't to bothered about the lights really as I've seen few facelift red supras and they don't look to bad! The diffuser doesn't look to bad at all! Looks ten times better without the rear fog stuck there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Top secret front bumper OEM side skirts Carbon rear diffuser with and without rear spats (oem) Rob I'd go with TS side skirts and TS rear spats rather than OEM, they suit the TS front much better than OEM IMO.

jevansio Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 More red facelifts If it were me I'd keep everything as is, and get facelifts & an awesome set of wheels, I think this proves you don't need kit to look great See this post on SF for more pics http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showpost.php?p=6444151&postcount=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 I like the skirts to be fair but the spats are not for me! Reason I've gone with oem is because I like stock plus the TS skirts are quite hard to get hold of it seems! I've always liked the top secret front bumper! Plus when i do eventually go tt I want a front mount, and I can't have my active lip locked down as there's to many speed bumps around my way! I was thinking about a different lip but I just can't seem to find on I like! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 The second pic is the lip I was contemplating! If it is the one it's a carbon replica of the hks kansai lip! Looks awesome in that pic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevins Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Whifbitz are selling TS skirts and spats mate, but they aint cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobD Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 Thought so! Does look nice! Would like to see a top secret front on a red car though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I know you say you have clearance issues with the lip locked down, but I would ask TS front owners as I would imagine it'll be a lot worse with one of those, there is no give in it where as the uk lip will flex, also the TS has a lot bigger overhang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 Perhaps bud! Would like an aggresive look to! Active front doesn't give that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multistory car park ramps can be an issue as the front of the TS lip can be the first thing that hits the slope as you drive up to it. Ground clearance isn't as much of an issue over road humps provided you have the suspension at a sensible ride height. The genuine TS fronts have a long undertray section that can get scraped but they are hard wearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
