The road to the 14r60 replica

[jay_reef15]

Hi guys I'm finally posting my obsession lol 14r60 this started when I met supra2nv back in 2018 i saw his 14r build and I started to think how awesome would it be to have a 14r60. It's been very hard to source all the body parts but I have almost all the body from the rear bumper diffuser emblem side skirts and the crown jewel the front bumper which it's being made by TRD as we speak. I need to source the fenders but that will be for next year and maybe the roof if I get lucky. Sooo here we go with the part list.

Plans are to make this car as close as possible to Porsche GT3 style lightweight N/A and a lot of carbon/titanium parts. Hopefully ill strip down the car next year and start slowly putting all the parts I have collected.

If you don't mind me asking, what was the process you went through to get a bumper made by TRD? I'm also really interested in getting a 14r60 style front bumper but had given up on it since I was under the impression that you could only get one if you had a 14r60 VIN.

Those are the 14r60 fenders and I believe you can fit a 295 easy since a 265 in a stock fender can be done and the price is from what I heard last time $5,500 just fenders in FRP

I am not one for knock offs, but someone should make a replica of the fenders. Hell I would pay 1,200-1,500 for them in carbon. 5,500 for FRP is over the top even for TRD.

That's the price from TRD the price for the for bumper are $5,500+ heck they want almost 16,000 for the carbon front bumper and fenders 14r60 parts are not cheap used rear bumpers go for $3,500 with busted diffuser and parts missing complete rear end you are looking $5,000+
