Hi

Here is some pics of my project: Fujimi: Toyota Supra turbo.

This first time I try body mods, so mods are not big.

Here is some pics that I have done so far.

front lowered, and some lines smoothed

I was just joking! lol! I wanted to say I was impressed by the work you put on it!... As I prefer this generation of Supras (last one doesn't inspires me too much...), I'll wait passionnately for the result of this thread!...

Nice! Not enough mk III lovers out there :) I got the same kit for Christmas, I'm building as factory stock. My only complaints with the kit is the chassis and lack of an engine.

What color are you going to paint it? I'm trying to figure out which Duplicolor paint is closest to the dark grey mk III's...

Nice start.
I agree with FutureBoy, not enough MkIII's.. Here's one I did!

Hi!

Did some other models and now doing this again. Nothing much done, rear bumber is in shape just need to do some fixing. Also lowered rear a little.
Next I will put primer on it again, and then sand more. Maybe after that I start thinking body color. Any suggestions about color?

I wanted to say that, but it might be a bit much of a challenge.

Glad to see another MK3 lover.
Lovely blue. :sunglasse
I don't think it is a good idea to sand metallic paint. The particles will become uneven.

Hi, again

Here some new pics, body painted and clear coats added. I'm very happy with the result, pictures doesn't give justice to color and paintwork.

Rearlights, grille and etc. need to add yet. Rearlights need fitting, they are not fitting good. Interior is almost ready, some little things to do, cleaning paint lines and dust. Those in trunk should be subs, do they look like that?

Here some new pics. I'm not very happy with windows, rear window has dust and etc. and when I glued frontwindshield, glue spreaded.

I will try to do something to rearwindow, but I haven't very much motivation right now. I also lost rearlights, I don't now what to do. Maybe I try to scratch build new ones.

05-03-2004, 04:22 PM
its gotta have a wing but not that one go with the stock turbo wing that came with it it will look really nice after u sand it down and smooth it out a bit
rockabilly
05-03-2004, 04:42 PM
yeah, the original wing would be best but its gone, I think I leave it wingless until I get better wing, that wing is from Lancer.
