I just started to work again on my Castrol Toyota Tom's Supra GT but because of bad decals I decided to convert it to street car.
I decide that this time car will be in other caolor than blue http://www.scaleracecars.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif and I choose nice green paint in auto color shop.

Here it is how it looks after first paint.

Woah, this is like the third green supra I've seen on these boards. Feel like a trendsetter yet, Hiroboy? hahahaha :) First coat looks good, did you use any undercoat?

great color everything looks great, was the blurry thing behind the front fender because of the camera though. Looks great though, I like how the green isn't too bright or too dark.

Yes Steve. Only I will replace tires with some other to not be slicks.
All other rims which I have in stock don't look fine on it.

but no flames. flames is for american musclecars.

flames look good on any car as long as the flames are the right style and color. but i agree that these particular flames dont look right on this car, maybe some pearl silver or blue flames the cover the intire front of the car.

Too bad that I can't find any livery for modern cars. Some Tribal design will look nice on it.
In NFS Unlimited are much design too choose. :-)

I don't think that this flames look bad, they are realy natural and my friend put similar to real Alfa 156 lowerd with 17" wheels and I can asure you that everybody was looking this car, you can call me old school but I don't dig that modern F&F stuff on cars.

DONT RUIN THA CAR WITH FLAMES

it would look better ifyou were to add sponcer decals on ti and going racing how it should be. the flames no. just mke it racing style

That car looks awesome the way it is, you don't need any flames. I love cars that don't look all cluttered up with decals and things. If you need something else, try getting some sponser decals from pcmodeler.com. They're great! Also, I am going to try this project in the near future with the sard supra. I plan on using the interior out of Tamiya's street version of the supra. You might consider giving this a try althought the car will still look great as is. Awesome job!

i think the colors dont match at all! paint some dark green flames on there and it would look phat.

Hello!
if you want you can put som kind of falmes on it and then paint it over with the base color... then you will get discreet flams... i think.... i have just seen it on a real car.

Car looks great. You could've put some decals, but I would recomend just bit darker or lighter green or blue, then I would look just stunning. I saw car in real like this. Look very nice (when not covered in durt).
