I think it would look better if the taillights were closer to the quarter panel. I guess it's too late now. I give you props for helping dsmers out but i think the supra tail light conversion has been done to many times. Good work though.

It looks great, the side however is not my style :( little too much space where the door is, looks kinda outta place. The rear is beautiful though. Great job!

niiiiiiiiice

I was wondering when you were gonna advertise the rear as you can see it in the front fender pics :p and now if you could only make the hood for turbo models.... oh well... hurry and finish so people like me can buy that rear.

tail lights

The rear bumper piece is from a supra, so the tail lights are the EXACT same distance as the supra. butt the kit is wide so it's even wider than a stock supra, sorta like top secret's supra, it should look more supra-ish with the duckbill wing, ,I'll put more pics up when that is done..

This is not available yet though.

I think it would look smoother if the bumper had more or a radius to it instead of that straight edge coming back from the lights, if it had a gentle slope and more rounded edge is the best way I can describe it. Its interesting to watch projects come along though.

the duckbill trunk is something else you must buy from them, if you ask me, i think it looks bad, and the supra conversion has been done to death, i believe altezza makes stylized taillights for the last type of camaros, they look like the could be fitted to an eclipse with a minimal amount of fibreglassing, I think I saw them in super street, but I can't find the issue that had them, If anybody has a picture of those tails please e-mail it to me, I'll try to photoshop the tails onto a 2g to see how it would look.

Wow, that's a whole lot of ugly. :( Sorry, but personally I think the Supra lights should stay on a Supra, they don't even look that good to begin with.

However, you have to run a business and lots of people think differently than I do. :)

<shakes head>

A DSM is a cool car til you do that to it

A matter of opinion, blah blah. But isn't there enough posing in the import world without doing this? Hell, by the time you change the lights, the body, get it painted, primed, etc etc etc you could have just sold your car and bought a Supra.
