DodgyRog Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Well I got the Supra back, but the Engine Bay isn't finished yet but the Uk Bonnet is on and the Uk Bumper as well Hoping to finish the Engine Bay over Easter, so I will update when it's completed MOT on Saturday, so need to put the number plate, 2nd Cat and Exhaust Bung back on for the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottC Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 We've all lost interest waiting, so no rush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 We had a couple of issues, so it's being done in a slightly different way, but it means a delay, due to redoing some things All the parts should be done by the end of the week, I just can't get down there for a couple of weeks, so you are just going to have to wait lol I might keep it under wraps until Dragonball:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Looking good Rog I find it odd that we have both got rid of the carbon bonnets at the same time Jealous that you have yours back. Mine won't be ready until friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine won't be ready until friday Yeah a bit odd, although mine is propped up against the wall in the spare bedroom, just in case I decide to swap back at some point I may sell it if anyone offers me decent money, otherwise I am going to hold onto it, as I will never find another Jun Bonnet We had a problem with the Uk Bonnet, so it will have to go back to the bodyshop at some point, the scoop is broken and someone bodge repaired it and unfortunately the bolts to remove it are really rusted so couldn't take it off for the repair this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgyRog Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Mot day today, so have to do the usual 2nd Cat back on, bung in etc but you have to love the fact these cars at 20 years old are still sailing through Mot's year after year, not even an advisory again this year, so all passed for another year:D Just need to put it back into drive spec again now, sound like a jet fighter with all that air trying to get through the tiny bung hole lol:salute: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripped_fear Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Looking good mate, have to admit I do like the uk bonnet now its painted, not sure if I prefer it against the other one though. Great news on the Mot too, I have mine on the 30th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudsey Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Congratulations on the mot pass Rog. Much prefer the oem and uk bonnet scoop, flows much better with the lines of the car. Good move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 First Wax of the year, sill need to re polish the wheels though Will try and get another couple of coats of Wax on before Dragonball though Shiney:cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 Fitted this one to the Supra as well, but still no pics of the engine bay lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 It looks good with the UK bonnet on now. I'd like to see it with the mesh in the scoop painted black to match the mesh in the bumper, but it all looks awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 Thanks Josh, the scoop has a crack in it and it has been badly repaired at some point, so the scoop is going to be replaced at some point, it will go black then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) Had no work today, so used the best of my time and got on my wheels (they were very bad) This was after a quick soapy wash and dry About 6 hours in total, but just need to buff up one side still, so maybe another hours worth This is the same wheel as above This is a rear that needs a touch more time Edited April 14, 2014 by DodgyRog (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Got my tyres changed today So took the 265/35/18's off the rear and moved them to the front and put some 285/35/18 on the rear, so no more stretched tyres at last Only problem now is the clearance on the rear arches is stupid close, if they actually clear lol So I think I may have to raise the rear a quarter of an inch to be on the safe side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgyRog Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Well I wasn't planning to show this to anyone until it was complete, but time has ran out prior to Japfest Basically it still needs a couple of bits doing, but Dip Demons ran out of the Film I am using and it comes from the States, unfortunately they are waiting for this film to be made again and it's not going to be here until after Japfest and Dragonball So for the time being he has dipped a couple of bits in another film and as I said there are still a couple of other bits to, as well as something that need to be redone Anyway it is complete enough to get it to Japfest and Dragonball, then it we be going back sometime in the near future for the finishing touches As I have said before, I know there will be some haters, but I really wanted something out of the norm, as in Carbon Dip or Skulls etc So here it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
