i have a couple of mods in mind. :) i want to have that black bumper lip painted in the same colour as the body and install the active spoiler just so as the front looks nice and low to match the rest of the OE bodykit like this; :)

and buy new glass lights as the plastic has faded a bit crappy :) apart from that, it's pretty awesome dont you think?

Very nice Dan I can't wait to see it. Like you say the front lip will look far better painted silver.
The wheels look a bit weedy so a nice set of staggered rims to fill the arches would be right at the top of my to do list :D

You can clean the inside of the lens - think nail polish remover will do it .. so I've heard. Yep some spacers are a must, but other than that it looks ace. What interior has it got?, cloth, leather?.

Okay i forgot to give you the rough spec of it.
1995 Supra SZ-R Import
Manual
2JZ-GE
100% standard body
17" turbo wheels
UK big brake spec brakes installed front and rear (bigger than import turbo brakes)
electric everything and all working
standard cloth interior with mandatory rear leather bucket seats
full HKS dragger exhaust system

and thats about it really :D but needless to say, just how frigging clean is it! you'd never believe what i'm paying for it in this condition and FULL Toyota service history both Japan and UK :D

Thanks Tony, it certianly will look alot more lower with that painted lip and active spoiler installed. and then that will be perfect bodywise :)
as for the wheels, i actually like it box standard like this. it really is a time warp car like it came off the line yesterday :D

yeah me and dad did that the the estima van we had, and it didnt make much of a difference. plus having fresh new lenses will give me the perfect excuse to install some HIDs so i can actually see where im going at night :nod: and i'm pretty sure the car already has some decent width spacers on it compaired to the google image one at the bottom :)
oh and cloth interior mate, leather would be nice. but i slide about too easily, learned that from the MR2, cloth ftw... with the money left over, might source the original turbo recaros these came with :D

Thanks Paul :thumbs: finally getting a gt car makes so much more sense, it's built like a tank and comfortable :nod: perfect for a cruise to the nurburgring i'd say :sifone:

Cheers Mike, to be honest. I haven't got the heart to do that. it really is too super clean for all that. but hey, in time i may buy a little shitbox to throw around for a track fix ;)
