mplavery Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 Ok , Today i done some more stripping, have now taken off the door cards. I was going to take all the dash trims off to get them sprayed to what ever the outside going to be but i had another thought in having a different colour inside to out maybe I think my door speakers have seen better days lol maybe its a good time to fit my new 16cm speaker brackets i bought 2 years ago lol Just bought Envys own Intercooler, I did not go for a Greddy one yet as i wanna go single after the bodywork.. Looks good though... I HAD A MISHAP .... last week i was rushing around and i had to get the supra out of the garage, As i reversed it I HIT MY OWN 306!!!!! I WAS SO ANGRY ...Sods law the 306 had a little scratch and the supra...welll take a look Lucky i done it before it went into the bodyshop .. Here are my new wheels lol gone for the streamline wheels to see if it will catch on lol... Space saver on the rear as the other wheel has tiny curbing on it, so getting that sorted My car at the bodyshop now lol The bodyshop is 2 units down and this was the only space lol just in case ppl say that looks like a nice place to get ur car sprayed lol as you can see it looks great by the big yellow skip lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I really like both those colours. Either the car will look gorgeous once its done:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALOOPY Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I'm sure the R1 colour will be a three stage colour, so get your wallet out. the rover colour will be a straight clear over base. Both will look nice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mplavery Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 Well it willbe this kinda blue anyways, some ppl are suggesting a lambo orange...I do really like orange Supra's but i think you gotto have the right look supra...I dont think my Supra is aggressive enough to pull Orange off...

mplavery Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 I was looking at loads of dealers at there blues, was really hard as some look great in the light but in the shade looked boring..vice versa then after a few hours not getting anywhere, out of the blue there was this 350z in daytona blue which looked awsome behind me when i was driven back, managed to find one up close and loved it ...its perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magictorch Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 i spent a day looking at blues....couldnt decide between a Renault blue or a Suzuki blue:( kinda put getting the car sprayed on hold now tho..... Is that the same colour as the Envy 350z? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr keef Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 its brighter then the one i saw but like you said it could of been your phone cam...i was hoping it would be a little darker. its the gold pearl mate that lightens it up and the sun...the colour itself was pretty dark without the pearl.

mplavery Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 While the car is in the bodyshop i have been thinking about other colours as blue is a common colour with Supra's Im really liking this Yellow i have seen on this renault, thinking its going to go really well with my wheels. The bodyshop are going to do one wing blue and one wing Yellow to see how it looks here is the yellow The pic does not show off the pearl but if you seen this model you know how nice the yellow is then i done a search on here for yellow supra's and found one of amo's car. Shocked to see he has the same kit as what i have orderd !! lol but he has got rid of it now so its not all bad but i dont really want to copy someone but im thinking it looks to nice to turn down lol I photoshopped my wheels on his for a idea how my wheels go What do you think people ?

martini Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I like it. Bold! Colour is a very personal choice though. So long as you like it! Did you fit all of the bodykit yourself? Where did you source it all from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukeyboy2k Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 What do you think people ? I'm doing mine yellow soon. You live near me too. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
