i really like FCs but the tail lights i find boring. and i'm not a huge fan of those clear ricey ones, they seem to cheapen cars. supra lights seem like they would fit well, i would like to hear other ideas.

or maybe the 89-92 lights with the lights painted body color leaving the circles unpainted?


and again i love the color

the reason i ask, is that i thought about doing that to my engine bay when i paint it. i just dont want it to look bad like i missed the bay and jams, but this way if i ever repaint again i wouldnt have to keep repainting jams

i mean like if i decided to paint my car a second time. i dont want to keep repainting the jams and bay. cuz if the jams/bay are black then i can paint it any color, w/o redoing the jams

Damn that motha f*cka looks good, but that back spoiler looks funny, but still looks good. Nice car and good work.

maybe its the angle of the pic, but the sleepy eye does take away from the slickness. I don't mind the reflector so much, maybe you can find clear ones so it looks cleaner?

other than that i think it looks great. the wing different than your usual, but still unique and cool.

Ive had the pleasure of spending some time around this car while my FB was crapped out in her driveway and the paint looks absolutely GORGEOUS in person, Very clean, very deep red and imo a much better choice then the chamillion color.
