carl0s Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 from this: http://www.css-networks.com/crash/1.jpg to this: http://www.css-networks.com/sp/sup2.jpg http://www.css-networks.com/sp/sup1.jpg Look, No Horns!: http://www.css-networks.com/sp/nohorns.jpg But still DEVILISHLY horny: http://www.css-networks.com/sp/devilish.jpg Many many many thanks to Liam Lovatt and the chaps at West Mids Accident Repair Centre for the excellent work! I've had a new rear bumper fitted and painted by Liam, a J-Spec front bumper fitted and painted by Liam, my UK-spec LHS Rear "Toyota" badge removed, and some nice Likwid-art badges put on the back (Supra, and the Toyota emblem, with wicked devil horns), and of course the Wheel Mania Pacifics from Liam too He's fixed my water leak and tidied up numerous other things, oh, and I got a nice new CAT-1 alarm thrown in with the insurance side of things Supeeeeerb. All I need now are clear side-repeaters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted September 21, 2004 Author Share Posted September 21, 2004 see, when you look at that first pic, with the horns (headlamp washers), it's like a granny with a very bad pair of spectacles on. Some of you have tidy black cars, with snug horns that don't look too bad, but on a blue car and probably everything but black, they look shite. And they probably only look less shite on a black car because you can't see them as clearly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted September 21, 2004 Author Share Posted September 21, 2004 nah it doesn't need lowering. It's bang on The ride is just perfect. Feels very tight, and not wallowy like it did on the stock rims/tyres (I do have the softer UK-spec suspension remember) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 your stock wheels look mint on your car, they like brand new wheels in the pic. good on you getting rid of your coat hangers on the front bumper. is that storm blue? paul`s uk storm blue looks good with veilside skirts and spats and a greddy front lip looks great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovatt Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 it is "storm blue" but on our computer database storm blue was know as "dark teal" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 yeah I've also heard it called Baltic Blue, or just Blue, or even Royal Sapphire Blue by some full-of-shit liars. Oh, I did have someone say "what, that green thing?" the other day when I said my car was coming back. Bloody put her right!!! I'm very very happy. I really don't think those photos do it justice though. The colour of the car hasn't changed, yet as you can see my camera was having a very bad day, so it looks wishy washy and dirty. It's actually shining rather nicely. I think you can basically see in all the pics that the colours have come out shit. and yeah, my stock wheels are in good nick. Or they were before I went off roading that time. I'll get 'em reconditioned though. Believe it or not, the car is actually a pretty tidy example of a UK spec, and I hope to keep it that way!

Thats go to be one of the cleanest ones I'v e seen. poss tip for the future - IMO of course - colour code the sides, under rear valances, and the front black lip - and spray your calipers gunmetal with Gold supra badges ??
