My widebody sw20 build thread

Hey all, ages since ive posted pics of my car, few ppl saw it at fed sq few weeks ago, but thought ill update you as what im doing.

Its in the workshop for the bodykit to be fixed, its being pulled off, re made in bits blended into guards, sanded, boged, fibre glassed, sanded, sanded, sanded, primed, sanded, sanded, paint, paint, clear, clear, clear, clear you get the idea.

Getting the rear wheel arches cut and modifyed and re enforced to alow wider wheels, getting antenna hole filled in, fuel filler cover done and all the defects in the kit fixed, letters on side mirrors shaved, tow hooks put on front (will be hidden behind number plate, screw in porsche BMW style) ect and a respray.

Have all brand new toyota genuine targa seals, rear quarter windows, front corner lights and reflectors and few other things.

have lots of other things to go on aswell but nothing exctiting, just interior and suspention gear.


P.S Ill be selling my rims very soon, so if your intrested let me know, pref vic pickup.

heres a few pics from today, only the begining!

    The only poo poo thing is the embroyders told me they would do the TRD logo, alot wouldn't because its oviously copyright, i could have got it done dodgy like at a market, but one place said they would so we gave them all the meterial, they gave it back differant and said for copy right they couldnt, i was so angry! i said if you can't do exact logo, ill just get MR2 or WIDEMR done.

    ow well

    yeah car bra, got it made up ready for when my cars finished and i go on long drives, keep all the bugs and birds off

    targs seals, trade price 220 each i think, plus 95 each for the seals on the targa itself that the window touches, plus tax

    Update:

    Few pics of the other day, work in progress so yes i know the guards are still not blended in, they were just getting most of it "smooth" they still have to pull that rear guard off, and then put it back on and blend it in.

    And a sneak peak of some wheels, wheels also need fixing up, no dish for now, but wont sit so far in, and will host some respectable sized tyres, will change offset to show more dish later (2 piece wheels)

    And here, the drivers side rear guard is off to be fixed and for the factory guard to be altered
