as some of you know my car was in the shop for the past 2 weeks. well now I've gotten her back and she is looking better than ever. I had them put on the kit (ss3 front, stock sides, hiro rear, and trd wing), shave sidemarkers/antenna, and the color has been changed to royal sapphire pearl. overall I'm really happy with how it turned out. anyway, here are the pics.

Now that I look at it...I want you to get projectors, tinted windows, and JDM clear sidemarkers.

yup, its the supra color. and they did the door jams, under hood (as far as they could reach), trunk etc.

I'm pretty anal about this stuff but there is minor overspray on some of the trim, places where the clear is noticably thin, and some chipped paint in the door jams/sunroof. its understandable because they were in a bit of a rush to get it done but I have the managers word he will correct these problems if I leave the car with him for a couple days.

also pics of the rear are pending. I had my buddy bring his camera over but for some reason he didn't take any of the rear. go figure.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

That's the color I wanted to paint my Celi...that damn RSP, which comes in the '97 Supra TT Automatic. But since my Celi's paint is pretty much brand new inside the engine compartment and doors, I'll repaint it black. But the Supra is the one getting the RSP...and that was in the plans for over a year wink.gif
