Kaan W Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 have you got a car cover mate? I might be wrong but im sure the filler will absorb water (i.e rain water) and you dont want that too happen- just a heads up I didnt know that but the car gets covered everyday after I finish working on it but cheers anyway mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers guys I havent started the engine bay yet but thats definately next on my list after the bodywork. There is so much I have planned but with work busy at the moment I can only do a couple of hours a day so im giving myslef until next summer to finish By the way guys im getting rid of the Do-luck front so any recomendations or ideas? I really like the Garage Paddy front and think it will suit the shape of the car great - Edited March 12, 2013 by Kaan W (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) I just found this also, it looks stock but with a slight rounded look which will go great with the rest of the kit I think - Edited March 12, 2013 by Kaan W (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

listy Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 It looks like a stock bumper with some kind of lip moulded in. I vote Ridox front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkddav3 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 garage paddy looks nice, rare as though! ive never seen one in the metal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 garage paddy looks nice, rare as though! ive never seen one in the metal Garage paddy it is then I can get hold of one but they just cost a bit more. Ridox front is nice also im just a bit unsure on the lip for the sort of shape im going for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 For me, the garage paddy one is a bit cartoon-y, if that makes sense. You've put so much effort in to this it would be a shame to spoil it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've put so much effort in to this it would be a shame to spoil it! I might just stick with the Do-luck for now as it still looks nice and keeps the car looking aggresive. Still not sure what spoiler to go for yet whether to go stock or stay trd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 i really like the do-luck front, and you could always buy a stock spoiler and have it painted and still keep the trd one and you can change between the too when you fancy a change you already have the trd one and you can get a stock one for around £30 usually on here. i sold one not long ago for £20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also changed the spoiler to see what looks better. Opinions? I might just stick with the TRD as I dont like the shape of the stock one from certain angles. EDIT: Please excuse the crudety of the brackets as I dont have the proper bending or cutting equipment so it was just a quick lash up. Before the brackets - With brackets (and stock spoiler)- Another thing, I will be getting another Do-luck bumper as mine is a bit old and I want something fresh but I cant seem to find one with the undertray? Is this important to have as the one I have now has it and was fixed to the rad support panel from it also.

ripped_fear Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 With the look you are going for I think the TRD trumps the OEM one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

safcdixon Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Bumper looks loads neater, nice work The stock spoiler has a more flueant line with the arches, than the trd does, but the trd has a more aggressive look, its a tough one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) Without sounding like a complete tool - What are the brackets suppost to do that Kaan has made it looks no different to me lol. Im not faulting you're work because its probs just me being stupid lol I agree on the TRD wing it looks much better with it on And the whole project is looking great Edited September 13, 2012 by Chris Bailey (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not faulting you're work because its probs just me being stupid lol I agree on the TRD wing it looks much better with it on And the whole project is looking great Its easier to see in person but the lower part of the bumper on the right hand side of the exhaust was drooping down slightly which looked a bit stupid and tacky. Also there has been problems in the past with the bumpers cracking at high speed from the lower part catching the air like a massive parachute, which I dont fancy happening after all the work ive put into this. I like TRD better also, the stock one makes the whole car look too rounded and boring imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihai Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I would like to have a TRD spolier on my supra... TRD it is my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
