Grazer Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Here's the list of what I've been up to in the last few weeks Veilside spoiler removed (for sale soon) Boot holes filled and sprayed Bonnet insulation removed Goodridge stainless steel brake lines fitted Brake calipers and drums painted silver Brake fluid flush with Dot5.1 fluid Super Advans powder-coated Front number plate replaced These aren't great pics but I couldn't wait Now - I don't want to hear any 3-spoke comments. I know they're not to everyone's taste, but £160 to get new looking alloys is all I can afford right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Needs a spoiler and non 3 spokes LOL! I'll get me coat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I love it without the spoiler. Looks classy. I really don't like the wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I think without the spoiler looks a bit Aston Martin ish. But i like the Aston and don't like a wingless Sup. Im not saying a word about the alloys as i've said enough . But apart form that it's very nice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I think it looks really good except that the wheels aren't filling the arches enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Peace Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Well....its odd coz if I hadn't seen the pictures I would of said uggghh 3 spokes and oh what NO SPOILER... But hang on a minute it works....its kind of smooth and flush, its a shame you can't add the following possibly for legal reasons: Chrome Paintjob Chroming those alloys Mirrored glass... But looks good and individual the way it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Looks wicked, even the 3 spokers thi you'll have to keep 'em clean! BIG fan of no spolier myself, nice one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willson Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Looks good, but there seems to be a huge front wheel arch gap ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Never seen one without a spoiler! Got to say it looks very smart without it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superstar dj Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 looks good mate, when i first bought mine it was a bare back rider and i liked it but decided i needed trd on my boot.hope to see you at the next meet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kghelmet Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 just wants the front dropping but then so does mine.i don`t mind those three spokes but i`ve seen a few without spoilers and i`m not a fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazer Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 Thanks for the comments My primary reason for getting rid of the spoiler was that the first thing everyone said when the saw the car was "That's a huge spoiler". When I took it off to see what it was like, I liked it. I think it looks classier, lower and wider (not that I've become a spoiler hater - I still love the veilside and TRD). It's good to change The front wheel arch I don't really get - I keep meaning to measure them as the 18's totally fill the back and look tiny in the front! I can't really lower the front as I have clearance issues as it is (I get a nice scrape/crunch every time I reverse out of my steep driveway ). What about 20's at the front and 18's at the back I'm very pleased with the car at the moment. I've got clear indicators coming and a couple of scratches to sort out - then I'm not doing anything for a while. No really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 hmmm strange. I thought they were 17's, and small 17s at that! something isn't right! that's why I said about the wheels being too small - that front arch is bizarre I do like the overall look though!

Getrag Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I agree with the VS wing making the rear end look skinny - and the Supe has a fat ass as it is. Ive been thinking about changing wings myself but more to do with weight and visibility issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelG Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I think it looks pretty good ! Even with those 3 spokes, i dont like them all that much but they suit that car in silver ! Spoilerless is dependant on the car too. On this one i think he gets away with it without it lookin too stripped , looks good. Very sleek. Hope to see you at some meets this summer Grazer !
