Im VERY happy with how my cars turned out.. I love every bit of it!
yeah.. im thinking about leaving chrome gaurds off.. only one problem there though.. cause the plan was to use them.. he didnt worry about making the guard lips 100% straight.. theres a little bit of a bump in them(barely noticeable..) but you can see it if you look closer..

yeah.. we've decided the bumper colours are a love hate things.. they change colour between violet and blue depending on sun light

some people dont like it so much
i love them though
yah i think chrome gaurds will stay off.. got some chrome lips though that go aboyt half a mil all the way around the "flare"
thats my parts car... u can see them on the front fenders

Usually i dont give the oldish soarers two looks, but i must say that this is a damn fine example of a beautiful car. Well done mate keep up the good work, i rekon the wheels really make the whole car, good choice.

thanks alot mate.. a lot of time invested into this car and its finally all coming together(though i doubt it will ever stop)
got pulled up by the cops tonight for doing bad things on the take off(no, not a burnout) hehe
the wheels are awesome.. they were actually my second choice as i couldnt get the set i want.. but after that happenned i realised they were nicer wheels anyway
hard to get 4x114.3 with a 20 offset.. car has like a fwd offset..

Brake upgrade has been started with some r32 4 pot calipers and 280x30mm discs as per cruizida's "tutorial" and spacer(big thx to him), got the calipers and discs the other day, cleaned them all up and they are a nice gloss black now.
Discs will be getting machined as well as hubs tomorrow and should be completed next week.
Cant wait.

Those brakes are insanely big, and should provide more than enough braking power for the 1jz. Good to see you aren't scared to spend money on the soarer still, after your current F1 / Super car fetish
Any ideas if the interior is still getting a makeover or not?

Okay so you saw the before pics.
heres the after pics.
Note that the new re-coloured dash is still not in yet, so theres no pics of that and the steering wheel will be going in favour of a nicer one from momo or the like.

You should be VERRRRYYYY proud of how that turned out
I'm trying to restore my interior and im still finding it hard to get the parts required (new shifter surround etc)
Won't be able to afford to go the whole nine yards and get the seats and everything done like you have, but WOW that looks friggin awesome. Kudos!
