With a twist. Not sure if this has been done before or is possible in real life, but why not try it. removable hardtop Supra or convertable supra, whichever you want to call it.
List of things I've done so far:
Chopped roof off
Trimmed window glass
Removed seats for F&F seats.

Soon to come:
Stripped body...New paint Job
Custom cover..Saleen style
Aftermarket Rims..18s maybe
Extreme wing off of Revell Civic SI
Bigger/custom exhaust

Maybe more..Now for the pics.(looks like a mustang from the side..)

I think you should change those rims. In my opinion, they look ugly. Also, i dont like the invader type wing, but thats my opinion.

Something like that:

Well....I'm keeping the rims..since i dont have any other ones that will fit. And im all out of extra brakes..so scratch that idea. The wing on the ontherhand, i can change. I think im gonna use the original supra wing, and look for the front bumber aero wing.

Yes try putting the stock Supra wing on it, I think it will look nice. I do think that the rims look awesome on the car, one thing I would do is lower it a tad, but hey thats me. :2cents:

I say no wing at all. Its a convertible so it would look out of place IMO:smile:

Looking good.

Maybe you could make a speedster style cover (like the Scooby above) for a sportier 2 seater.

Keep up the good work.

Looking Nice Mustang.... Love the exhaust..... but I must agree with them, Get rid of the wing, its too big... if you want I have the top you want, from my saleen... I wont be using it.... The rims don't look too bad though... Are you planning any other details?? Subs?? Amps?? anything like that....... :biggrin:

it's a nice idea, but to be honest the colour just doesn't work with a removable hard top. the wheels are very nice and I think they should stay, and there should be some sort of wing, maybe just a small lip at the tailend of the car?

if you put the decals on that it will maker it look ricey:rolleyes: so i would leave them off. but it's up to you

Thanks for the comments. I'm glad it turned out the way it did. Junhao, the paint job was done with hand paint, very fine paint brush, and a lot of paitence. The 2 colors(which dont show well) are light purple and silver. The purple is the color divider between the orange and the blue. And now that I look at it...the wing was always a bad idea in the first place.
