Whitesupraboy2 Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Silver is hard to match but i actually think it is just mainly down to the different angle from the normal lines of the bumper to the angle of the splitter. if u understand what i mean! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Originally posted by Red What shall i do?? is it bad enough to take it back?? If you've just had the work done then I'd get them to repaint it. Could be the fact it's a different material or the primer has made the colour a shade lighter? That's what I'd do anyway.......................get them to fix the other things I've highlighted too! :D Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Originally posted by Red Yeah thats it!! to me it looks a real different colour Didn't I say that right at the start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Bloody 'ell mate, That looks only about a billion times better than when I saw it during a SEM beginning of the summer. I think you'd only had it about a week or so. I'm actually going to pass those on to my mate Mark who you met at that meeting to show him what a difference it is. Don't get too hung up with the lip, unless it's more obvious in real life than in the photo's. I would definitely get a pucka number plate holder though mate. Little details eh? Cheers Tony.

RICHARDA Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Defo the number plate, try a self adhesive one? Also UK glass headlights always smarten up the front end. HTH Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Car looks nice enough to me.... It might not match perfectly, but come on, matching a 10yr old paint is a little tricky and being silver makes it harder.... I think the car looks fine... but then I've got a dixie chicks video playing inside my car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I thought it was that your username is Red, which suggests the car will be red... but it's silver... hmmmm I think you'll find that if you look at almost any other silver supra with extra bits sprayed they will be a bit of an odd match.

Green Peace Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I think you are being too picky...if you took the picture in a different light and with a different backdrop ya Supra would look better already. Though as others have said clear front indicators would look good. But how longs a piece of string....new wheels body kit, respray, spoiler......and then it ends up looking like a Bathroom out of 'Footballers Wives' yuk .

bens747 Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Looks like a Donkey's hind leg, or a Brands Hatch race course. Def needs a straightning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bens747 Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I'd be ashamed to put my aerial up looking like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def needs a straightning. yeah, thats pissing me off too!! I'll tell you how it happened, and theres a lesson here for everyone: Dont turn the radio on when the boot is already up, cos the aerial might get caught under the boot when it comes up and bend a bit!!!

Red Posted December 7, 2004 Author Share Posted December 7, 2004 Tony! Cheers for the comments dude! Yeah I have been doing a few bits and bobs to it since you saw it!! Just had the cats out too, loving that!!! hopefully see you again soon fella. Originally posted by Green Peace I think you are being too picky...if you took the picture in a different light and with a different backdrop ya Supra would look better already. I agree, I know I'm a bit of a perfectionist, but it does look like that all the time so you don't reckon its worth taking back - I mean do you think he could do a better job - Or is that the acceptable standard??

stt Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 strangely my car looked exactly the same as yours did before i tweeked mine a little,The paint code (I think is 199) I painted mine with your commonal household halfrauds areshole can as i knew (And yes it has 3 times) it would get battered and split but as far as it goes it looks the same as the angle that is on as its pointing skyward in relationship to the bumper,I wou8ldnt worry about it being honest!
