Woo! Hobby order came in today



These are my first new kits in a long, long time. The Supra and Castrol Mugen NSX are mine, and the Celica is jaxson's. Already opened up the Supra and test fitted the new wheels to it



My plans for the Supra is to black it out, black rims, window tint, black interior, black highlighted engine bay, etc. etc. I don't plan on making a bodykit for it, but I'm always open to suggestions. If you have any pics of "subtle" Supra bodykits, feel free to post them I feel an aggressive bodykit would be lost in the black color for this car :grey:

Black, and lower it, that's what I would do. I agree that a body kit will take attention away from the black color. And no GT Wing either. Keep the stock wing. That'll be one mean looking Supra!

good stuff. I think blacking it out without an aggressive body kit is a good idea, it will look good.

And put lights in it. And then write an article for us about how to put lights in it.

I'd go with the "blacked out" look to...but maybe with a nice set of chrome rims...IMO black and chrome look so good together.

I agree with Pman, black with chrome looks real nice together. The bodykit is completely up to you, I think that black Supras look beasty with or without a bodykit...

The Supra!
Black and Chrome wheels are great..
What i think, the stock wing is not showing the supra's aggressiveness.. Maybe you can change to GT Wings?
