JohnnyW Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 Out of interest, how much did the full respray cost you? Thinking about having mine sprayed a different colour in the near future I had a lot of extra work that needed done like the panel alignment and also sorting out a lot of half assed work that was done on a previous repair so that was quite time consuming for them. I think if you were going in with a fairly good conditioned Supra and just wanted the colour change probably be looking at about £1400 ish.

JohnnyW Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 Axis hiro's i believe, same ones jamie p had before the last set Almost, these ones are Dare Hiro's I think Axis went bust and Dare bought that moulds. They are pretty much identical expect the Axis ones had that name stamped into one of the spokes, which looked pretty nice. Thanks again for the kind comments guys makes the expense and effort worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyW Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 Thanks guys looking even better since those pics were put up, fitted some facelift indicators it's amazing what a difference they make to the look of the car. Also fitted an active spoiler and removed the red overspray that was on the exhaust from a half assed respray by one of the previous owners. I've taken it off the road for a few months over the winter to do some small jobs that need done: new tailgate gas struts, boot rubber, fit undertrays, fit new stereo etc etc. Then in March time it's cambelt service and BPU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyW Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 CRC Bodyworks is in Bandbeath Industrial estate if you're come into Leven from Glenrothes you pass the Whiskey distillery then you come to the traffic lights where you can turn right to go down to the sea front or straight on to go through Leven. You take a left there and it's 2nd left. The guys name is Ian Meecher they did do a really good job on it I'm very pleased with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
