hadyn Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Those rims look really nice as the car is mate The front bumper is a little OTT with stock bodywork for my tastes tho How about just putting the stock front bumper back on and then you'd have a superb looking car IMO?

mikeyb10supra Posted January 29, 2006 Author Share Posted January 29, 2006 Was thinking maybe some stillens to balance the car out a bit.....or maybe modify the stock skirts to give them a little more depth to compensate for the front. im really not keen on the stock front in fact I would go as far as to say I hate it....had a thing about bomex fronts ever since a freind of mine had one on a silver supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 I'm afraid I agree with hadyn that car would would look so much better with a standard front bumper no skirts etc required but thats just my taste and its your car. Love the wheels though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyb10supra Posted January 29, 2006 Author Share Posted January 29, 2006 just being different mate, if your happy for your car to look like every one elses out there thats upto you, I happen to like it, im pretty sure once I finish it a lot of other people will like it to.....you excluded obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 I think 'being different' in todays climate is keeping your car looking relatively stock and concentrating on power mods that make a difference. Theres too many mullet/fashion haircut boys buying into Supras and sticking quite frankly shit on their cars IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bromy Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Agree with the other guys, with that front you really need to carry the line along the full length of the car with some side skirts and spats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Yep sorry but that bumper dosent look right on that car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Yep sorry but that bumper dosent look right on that car. You're taking the piss now aren't you? Yes - If it was me I'd have done the bumper last. BUT maybe he got a good deal on the Bomex front so went for it first. Give the guy a chance! This is why you shouldn't post pics of mid projects.

mikeysupra Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 hey mikeyb just checked ya pics! thats a nice clean supra ya got there. bumpers not too bad but def needs skirts and spats. expensive game we play though mate you,ll get there:flame: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 being different is what ever you want it to be...if it offends you that ive set the car up like this dont look in future, and as for putting shit on my car as you put it mate maybe keep your worthless opinions to yourself next time Woah steady on kid, Im not offended by your car at all, in fact it looks good. My point is it would look a lot better with the stock front bumper in my 'worthless' opinion! Have a can of lager, sit down and admire your Supe for gawdsake! An issue like this is not worth becoming a keyboard warrior over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted January 29, 2006 Author Share Posted January 29, 2006 just a bit confused why you would say a lot of people are putting shit on there cars nowadays?? can you give me an example of what you mean by shit, if you are not refering to the bumper?? in one of your last posts you refered to me as a ricer chav with no taste, so how can you now think the car looks good?? im not going to get into a big on line slagging match about this just confused now? As I have said before guys, yes this is mid project and yes I will be adding skirts in time, just thought I would let you see the progress so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaGSi Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 I like it mate, seen it in the flesh and got no problems with it. Wheels look alot better than the previous 16s too. Look forward to seeing it with the skirts, should be about complete then. Shame the other set you had cracked. Take it easy Gaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARTIN R Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Looks good mate, I have kept my car very much as stock in terms of body styling but each to their own I say. Good luck with the project It would be bloody boring if we went around with identical cars, what would we discuss at meets etc:tumble: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra steveo Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Defo need some skirts and spatz to go with that bumper (or you could swap it for my standard one ) youll probibly find that you need LARGER wheels after all the stuff is fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hadyn Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 in one of your last posts you refered to me as a ricer chav with no taste, so how can you now think the car looks good?? Remember the golden rule of irony in the land of the internet forum chav boy Just to avoid further confusion, I regard you as a non-chav Clear now?
