SkylineV35 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) Colour code the rest of the car to the mirror Dam you how did you know!! LOL the spray guy said he has to spray side of the car to make it look right, so i got quoted for full respray in super deep black with a few extra coats of laquer for glossy effect! Also got a few carbon bits to touch it up too! Cant wait... Looking at the last picture could prob do with some spacers aswel! Edited August 24, 2013 by SkylineV35 Quote
SkylineV35 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Posted August 24, 2013 Just ordered a set of these oem rear splash guards... should make the rear look a lil lower and tie in with the diffuser! Quote
SkylineV35 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Posted August 24, 2013 Also just ordered a carbon fibre number of this... Decided against the oem spoiler as it disturbs the lines went for something a little more subtle... wether it will add downforce or not i highly doubt it lol Quote
Ian Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Where are you getting the work done? I need some paint work done on the Supra but it seems all the good shops in the area have gone Quote

LRF4N Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Black sounds tasty but I think it looks better without a spoiler. Up to you to prove me wrong lol Quote

ddcboyle Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Just read this, glad its all getting worked on now. But couldnt help but chuckle, normally if someone crashes front bumper they get excited and buy new lights and nismo bumper. You crashed door and ended up buying carbon spoilers etc lol Quote
LRF4N Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 I know that feeling well You going black paint then? Go for purple or green calipers Quote
SkylineV35 Posted September 25, 2013 Author Posted September 25, 2013 I know that feeling well You going black paint then? Go for purple or green calipers going purple!! hence all the checking up on d2 etc lol Quote

SkylineV35 Posted November 6, 2013 Author Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) Sorry guys been so busy enjoying my baby forgot to take some decent pictures of the car.... (this was the damaged side..) (this is the new spoiler) Took her for a wheelalignment too thought id get a picture of how the rear mudguards totally change the rear end My new doorlights..each to there own but i love them haha Had the calipers all sprayed purple until i save up for the D2 brake kit =) Overall im mega satisfied with the work done and would highly recommend the guys at Carmichaels (CF14 1PS) Really patient guys I was in nearly every day during the finishing stages, had them spray and respray different parts like the grill, badges, calipers, rims trying out different colour combinations until I got what I wanted! Big Thanks to Zmanalex for the door!! Saved alot of headache sourcing. Also big thanks to Heath tyres Cardiff for the alignment it handles like its on rails now! the previous alignment done by Paisley Kwikfit was way off on the rears and the guy even showed me that the bolts that were needed to correct alignment hadnt even been touched =_= also got some new rear tyres as the rear were nearly superslicks, also from heath tyres amazing price for 255 40 19s with a 60pounds fuel gift card too! Also fitted fitted the D1 spec throttle controller from EP Racing and it has been a blast! Its basically like having sports mode like you get on other cars. All these things have just made my car feel like I have a Brand new car truelly over the moon! Thanks everyone for the support too! Now to save up some more money for some more tuning hehe Edited November 6, 2013 by SkylineV35 2 Quote
