I just dont think I'll ever get used to the fixed headlights.. but it looks great man and it came out just the way you had described it.

Here's my Supra now back from paint. What do you guys think?

I think you LOVE to take pics showing your front tire tread. Our cars have great lines on the front fenders and tuck wheels nice. Take pics with rims FACING the camera. ;)

Good work on being unique with the headlights and bumper.

Great work!

Color match the moldings and get a CF hood...THEN I would like the look of the fixed headlights. Don't get me wrong, you did a fantasic job, but IMO they need to blend in somewhat like the stock headlights do.

This paint job was hurried to get done in time for PacNW. The next time I paint my Supra I will be stripping the entire car down, pulling the motor, replacing all the trim, and painting the side moldings to match. I do want to get a CF hood, but I will be painting it to match the rest of the car (atleast on the top) so that it looks stock. Although I am thinking of getting one with a 2" cowl (and yes, I do know how rare those are). All it takes is money and time. 1 of those I have and it's not the money.

Where can I find a new/good condition stock lip like that for my TurboA. It is an 88 and I am assuming a newer style bumbper since it has the nose cone that joins the hood to the bumper. I really want one, to keep my stock look going :naughty:

just threw the bumper on to take it to a local shop.. putting on a jza70 nose panel when I get the car back, and I'm debating on an abflug turbo-a duct. (that angle makes the intercooler look a little odd, didn't have any couplers on it at the moment)

^^looks good.the fmic dose look a bit funny in this pic but it still looks nice.Now all you need to do is take some really sick pics

yeah I'll work on it when I get it back, thanks man.. once it gets couplers the I mount the bumper properly I'll get it the way I want it.

Just out of curiosity since we seem to have similar taste when it comes to this, do you think I should reinstall the lower grill insert? I've been debating that since I removed it. Seems the bottom sags a bit once you remove it..
