Dude all your work looks really good. I think the plastic where the window controls are would look sick in CF too. Just to match the door handle

Whoa! you put a Toyota logo on your existing airbag? this is a process I want to see how you did it! looks like you actually "cut it in" so to speak. Interesting!

This is what i started today Still lots of hours left in smoothing everything out, and perfecting all the lines... This one will not be IN YOUR FACE style - so it will flow more or less like stock lines - and fill the trunk end....

Heres another angle:

Sometimes to take one step forward you have to make few steps back... Wasnt quite happy with the front lights - so here they go out again... Bought some 1watt leds - so these should do the job now... Also - front bumper will be used in manufacturing front lip, and there will be new intake system done for the stock airbox to get some fresh airflow going... lots of ahead...

Today i took my headlights apart one more time... As the leds / tube that i placed before wasnt bright enouth to be visible during day light - i decieded to rework it...

Soo - here are the bad boys 3x 1watt luxeon leds:



These 3 together light up pretty massive... if you take a look at these leds straight - you will be blind for atleast 1 min



Made a cut under the led tube, repainted everything again in black:



Used lots of aluminium tape on the inside of the housing to create a reflective sides:



Mounted new leds inside and covered them with aluminium tape also:



And to be honest - result came out pretty impressive I will have to somehow tone these down a little - cuz at few angles these are a bit hard to look at



Heres before and after shot:



Will see how they will look at the day light Also - found out that JP / AU market has the same headlights as USDM ones on FRS - so they have 'parking lights' in these headlights already integrated from factory. Took a good look at the headlights - and heres it is!





I drilled highs housing to support new bulb - and tomorow will buy a new sockets. Will ba also adding Leds there If i knew that theres a pre-made place already - i would never messed up with these damn led tubes But oh well... you live - you learn

And got these from Japan few days ago GT86 tails - will be giving another shot at them and do somthing different So the ones that i have now will go on sale i guess...
