Widebody........would it look ok?

Recommended Posts

Right, with me looking at moving early next year, redundancy looming (which I most likely will be getting :nana:) and a nice payout to boot, I'm thinking of getting a supra shell, and aesthetically make it how I want, then drop everything from my current supra into it.

 

I want to go wide, and love the Ridox front and skirts, but not keen on the arches :(

 

I'm thinking Nur Motorsport arches, with Ridox front and skirts, and possibly a shine auto diffuser at the back. Spoiler/wing I'm undecided on as of yet.

 

How do people think that would look? Or other ideas?

 

Don't be nice about it if you think it would be pants, I want honest opinions here, as once I start it, it WILL be staying that way, so I don't want to make any mistakes, hence starting this thread well in advance so I have plenty of time to make my mind up.

 

I also want it to be one of a kind ;)

 

Discuss :)

Might have missed something but maybe you should save your redundancy incase you don't get a job for a year like I did...

 

Just saying :p

 

Already covered that mate ;)

Rent for a year plus bills put back, funds for second car put back, debts paid off, £10k put back for if the poop hits the fan, and I'll still have circa £15k left :D

Plus, I have 3 jobs lined up already, one of which is rather well paid ;)

I'm armed forces mate, we don't come under that rule ;)

We get told how much we will get so we can choose to apply or not, which i did. I get £47k :D

 

And deserved it is too, if there's anything I don't kind my taxes on its the armed forces.

 

Do it mate, it will look brilliant, with the right, very wide wheels and in the right colour.

:D

 

I think it would have to be.........WHITE :D

The carbon lip, skirt bottoms and diffuser would stand out then. Would probably go TS bonnet painted with vents left carbon too ;)

He wants to be different. And likes Supras.

And there's me thinking the supra owners are getting boring lol, I have supra love and will prob never not have one, love them to bits.

 

Back on topic.

 

Listy I like your plans, the side skirts will need cutting to make them fit nur arches, so carbon option is a risk.

Won't be until at least next year mate, and will take some time, as until the paint work, I'll be taking my time to do it myself, and do it right.

 

I was thinking of going TS evolution, as its rare as rocking horse faeces, but thought a bit of a mix that hasn't been done before would be better.

I love the evolution kit, I keep thinking about dropping jm imports a line and seeing if they can source me a supra with one already fitted, my sensible head takes over (and the fear of an angry wife) and I put the phone back down.

 

It will look great mate, I look forward to the thread.

Nur or Ridox front arches (the Ridox fronts have a fantastic profile!), Nur rear arches, Ridox skirts with carbon lower section, Ridox front bumper with the extended carbon front splitter, UK spec rear with Shine/TS carbon rear diffuser, Stout (Varis) bonnet, APR GT-300 rear carbon wing, facelift lights all round, Audi Ibis White paintwork, Volk GT-F wheels in suitable width/offset.

 

That would be fantastic. :D

 

If I didn't go the way I am going, that would be near to a dream offering of an alternative ;)

It sounds good Jon, but I think I would have the Ridox front wings in that combo, thee isn't enough of a difference to be worth the effort trying to get the Nur frontwings to fit with the other bits

 

I totally understand you not wanting the Ridox rear arches, I was intending to go with them, but decided against it, as they overlap the rear bumper, making it near impossibe to have it blended in
