Nice splitter. Surely your timing will have to be spot on when negotiating speed humps though mate? :)

So this afternoon i spent hours researching the fitting of the active spoiler and IMO it's a piece of piss <- now saying that, no doubt i'll run into all sorts of bother :rolleyes: but we'll see. One thing i was eager to know though was if my SZ-R loom had the relevant plugs woven in for plugging the active spoiler motor and cabin ecu into. Que me and my tools again to take the dash apart :smash:

the white plug below is the dash pickup point for the ecu, fuggen result! :D which means that the one under the headlight WILL be there :)

thats the stange thing with the Supras, it's a lottery if you have no plugs, one plug or both! so everything should be fairly straight forward :D

Also this weekend weather permitting i'll chip away all the horrible cracked red caliper paint and revert back to OEM flat black with the orignial bake on 'Supra' decals :nod: sloooowly getting there :D

Okay so update time albeit a small one.

The caliper decals have arrived :smash: this weekend if i have the time, i will chip away all the crap red paint off of the calipers and respray them in OE black. Then apply these. If my active spoiler arrives before then though, they will have to wait for the following weekend ;)
