Well today got the Supra spoiler and TRD Boot lid sprayed and re-fitted!
Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
Looks great... its about time it had a spoiler on it
Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
Is that a std supra spoiler or has it been modified to fit the boot?
96 Rev 3 Turbo, Done!
Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
Lovely mate, well done
Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red

Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
Glass engine lid is on.
Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
i cant make my mind up on those rear lights, they definately look better now you've repainted them though
just out of curiosity, is that engine cover practical becuase surely it doesnt let the heat out properly?

Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
that was my thought.. looks great but I thought the rear spoiler on an MR2 was to cause turbulence over the engine cover to draw the heat away from the engine?? Might be wrong tho... Will have to pop over and have a proper look at your car now its almost finished and when its daylight
Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
im gona have to modify the glass panel to let more heat out!!
As with doing anything as a 1 off, you learn as you go along but i need to make it dispense more heat as it currently is trapping to much above the turbo area.
thinking an oval cut out at the turbo end will work?

Re: TRD Show car - Rebild & Re-spray in Candy Red
well hoping to get it to a few shows this year and obviously would have been great to have got it into MR2 ONLY Magazine, such a shame its not produced any more.
