Enigmus' 86 Special









Long story short. Car was hail damage the day before lip kit was supposed to be painted and installed. Decided to add a few more accessories while adding a blue pearl clear coat to the argento silver base. Funny thing is I wanted this done before Scion announced the Limited 10 Series Ignition Silver color. But mine is more subtle than the upcoming version.

I will get a photoshoot done soon hopefully to show the awesome pearl in the right light but these iphone pictures will have to do for now. New wheels coming soon.

Originally ordered a Seibon DV hood from @eauto and the fitment was horrible. Vendor then referred me to Seibon directly. They tried to make me wait weeks for a replacement but I needed to paint it along with the car. Tried to convince me use hood pins which I absolutely refused. Tried running me through hoops and all I wanted was a better replacement or a refund.

I am going through a dispute chargeback with my credit card company. Horrible customer service.

Directly ordered a VIS AMS style hood and they were fantastic in customer service. Got my hood expedited at a great price too. FUCK SEIBON. I will loudcap their horrible company.

Will update later with details with pics of horrible seibon fitment after work.

Pretty nice look. Great wheels. Euro GT86 headlights would really set it off and take it to another level, imo!

Ja, I opened up this thread think another dumb story.

WOW! very good!

The gap is a little big on the front but the sides of the hood look great.

Your car actually looks cool.

I like what you did to the side too!

Aught to see the car in person. Next to our cars it really stood out in a good way. Love your car bud! We need to get the whole group together and get some proper pics.

Love it! Used to have these wheels on one of my old Supras! They look excellent on your car!
