This Is Not An April Fool's Joke



Finally the carbon panels for the Supra has arrived and it was not a cheap part either.

Took some fabrication and time to readjust all the gaps and the holes that should be drilled... And 11K helped me a lot through this process.



Also, I am pushing the legal limit to the extreme by replacing the existing headlight into the air inlet holes with the light bulbs embedded into it.

It was a replica of the GT500 Supra headlights back when A80 was still running through the cicuit. It looks not bad either :)

And the bumpers were all carbon fiber and I got rid of the side blinker lights since Korean law didn't really require the side blinker lights back then.



Fitted all the parts, and cleaned the car lightly, and I headed outside for a brief night drive.



I borrowed some P Zero tires from Mr. Lee and did some custom paintings like Nakai-San did when he sprayed 'Idlers' logo on the tires.

Not the best result but it does worth the look.



Overall the car looks much different than I first got this car fully redone. Now it feels like a race car, rather than a street car.

Anyway, huge thanks to all of the lads for the motivation and inspiration for the build :)
