Posted by ClipseRST, Apr-25-03 06:08 AM
Since everyone else is throwing out there previews... I thought I would add my creation. Also for everyone whos going to hate and say "go instead of show"... I'll upload pictures of my engine rebuild and HRC stage 2 w/FMIC when it gets here (hopefully beginning of next week.) Tell me what you think...


(6 inches each side to give it nice ghetto booty)

We took over a half a year to make a mold for everything and then we layed fiberglass... The fender flares was not what I wanted at first but it just made it look better then what it was, not to mention another 2.5 inches wided. I know fiberglass well crack, but this isnt going to be daily driver, its not going to be a trailor bitch either... Somewhere in between

Just from that pic looks like the car is going to come out real tough looking. Hope you have the right wheels and offset to pull it off. Definately post more progress pics. As far as the wing goes, here's a nice one:




Big enough for you?:7

Added the turbo wing and lowered it

widebodied - I think that supra's wing was completely custom made. I have the magazine it was in, coulda been import tuner or something, but the guy that owns it has his own shop so it's mostly custom work

That Supra is from Jotech out of Dallas TX. I think it's Kenny Tran's, but not sure. I've seen it at plenty of shows here in TX. Might want to contact them and see where they got it or if it's a custom job. They might let you know where they got it made if that's the case. On that note you can have your body shop take a fiberglass wing you like and lengthen it for you. Just a thought.
