Luxluc Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Wow. Amazing - - - Updated - - - Will you have keyless entry only? No back up for the key? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlukey Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 It's been like that since I bought it Luc. Looks better I think and in an emergency if the remote key fob stops working or is lost, there's always the boot lock in the rear light you can use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripped_fear Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Painted bonnet with the vents left carbon would look great imo. maybe get the lower lip of the TRD front spoiler carbon skinned too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Amazing work mate. Outstanding paintwork, going to look lovely when it's done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlukey Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Thanks for the kind comments guys. Bonnet is staying carbon for the time being I'm afraid. I am toying with the idea of trying to get a decent TRD bonnet and having that painted white though to see how it looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phlukey Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Doh, sorry my bad Don't worry about it mate, just kidding Can someone who's a photoshop wizard please alter these photos to show me how the car would look with the bonnet painted but the vents left as carbon (3 square sunken exit vents behind the 3 small cutouts). I'm intrigued to see how it would look. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 All white dude, the black bonnet distracts your focus off the rest of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike2JZ Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Wouldn't bother painting that bonnet, getting a TRD one seems like a much better idea, would finish off the look imo. Can't wait to see this in the flesh when it's done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlukey Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 I've always liked white cars with carbon bonnets Jellbean. I think it looks good and gives them character. Plus I've seen an abflug bonnet all painted on a white TRD Supra before and it looked too plain and boring for my tastes. All personal preference I guess. I am keen to see a photoshop of the bonnet painted with just the vents left carbon though. Sometimes it can look good if done correctly (seen it done well on some GTRs carbon bonnets), but can easily look tacky sometimes I think. Choices for me I think are either white TRD bonnet as above, full carbon abflug as it is now or possibly the abflug partially painted, depending on how the Photoshop of it looks if someone is able to do it.
