JAG Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 very nice work there mister i must sayMost of the sprayin was actually done by my dad because we were slightly short of time with me having work at 6 n we started doin them at a bit of a lazy pace about 1ish n he wasnt to keen on the masking so he did most of the spraying n i did all the other boring crap but its all good as the jobs done ;) Its nice to see some updates Jag, the wheels and reflets look wicked I must say! Get saving your pennies for some nice lowering springs and get that thing slammed now! Not sure about dropping it anymore than it already is for now as if i get it dropped much more its gna need new shocks 2 ;) So gna do the rest of the stuff then probz get it dropped more once I've got the rest of the plans done and dusted Cheers for the comments lads Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 *hint*Yeah and that Small lil updateNo pics yet as it was my grandads 80th birthday so didnt get a chance But I've ripped the window tints off they came off easy but then i had to spend about 2 hours getting the bloody glue off the windows.....Also stuck UKSC sticker on the front window and one back side as didnt get time to do both..... ;) But im now starting to think about stickers you stick on the outside as theres some slight bubbley bit in up which is annoying but need to find out about wether the UKSC stickers u stick on the outside are just the letters which are stickey or wether its on a clear plastic bit again.....But il ask Enzo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JAG Posted June 4, 2008 Author Share Posted June 4, 2008 No pictures for a while so thought id upload some So updates since last pictures....Front strut braceRear strut braceAlso thinking of purchasing a new one of these as it doesnt look to appealing.... Detintification and then slapped some stickers onAlso bodged this one up a bit as the sticker stretched as i put it on so missing some of the M on .com Thinking about getting some to stick on the outside of the glass if there like vynal lettering as oppose to a sheet sticker due to the little bubbles in them.... Plates offPlates onBut before i could take picks of them i went to my girleyfriends n parked a few roads down from her house due to no parking spaces as she lives in a town house n no garages etcSo left car there over night which I've done many a time with no problemsCame back to it in the morning,AND SOME CUNT HAD NICKED MY FUCKING TOYOTA BADGE OFF THE FRONT..... ;) Not a happy bunny.... Appologies for the swearing word....But no better word describes my feelings of the situationHas well cheezed me off tho as wanted to spray it black n then spray the back one black to n put it back on... Its gay... Then took my nail to the left over stickey stuff n got it off so it didnt look as crap....If anyones got a spare front toyota badge there not using any chance they could send it my way it would be very much appriciated ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
