That's a neat color! I like the hint of gold. Cool wheels, too.

Nice supra! I think you need to lower it!
I agree, lower it a little bit and it would be perfect. Nice build!

Sort of looks like a Mica red.
Clean build, Nothing like an OEM supra. :)

Hi guys. Thanks for all the positive comments - Helen will be happy.

I can't remember the colour now. It is a Halfords automotive colour. I will check it and let you all know.

As for the last photo - ImolaEK is right, a bit of Photoshop magic! Basically, take two photos - one with bonnet/hood off and one with it one (these are the thrid and second to last photo in the post). Use photoshop to delete everything but the bonnet from the 'with bonnet' photo - this includes background and car. Select the bonnet and copy. Now paste it onto the 'without bonnet' photo as a new layer, and position it in the correct spot. Now adjust the transparency until you like what you see. The only thing to remember is that the car must be in exactly the same position for both photos - so use a tripod for the camera and be very careful when putting the bonnet back in place. This technique could be used for many things, like the cowling of Group C or F1 cars.

And lowering! We had a devils own job getting the wheels under the guards as it is. :grinno:

Cheers,
Grant.
