Progress update: tail lights go back in without an issue, bumper lines up with the fender without gaps, and the trunk lid to quarter panel gap has been fixed. Body filler added to the quarter panel, custom "flare" until it's sanded down.

And a track photo, hoping to get back next month

Probably the final updates from body shop jail before I get the car back:
Roofline rust repaired and then sprayed black along the edge for the black roof wrap.

Fresh windshield and seals

And finally the rear end is car shaped and all sealed up.

Be good as new soon. Did you settle on a livery?

Indeed good as new

As for the wrap:
We'll see if Instawraps ever sends me a sample of 3M 1080/2080 G364... I ordered one a few weeks back and it never arrived, reached out to ask for an update and got a refund without any response. Ordered another and it's looking like the same situation, I suppose they don't want my money for a full order

.

If that doesn't show up, a black "Advan" inspired livery is the plan. No matter what happens, black roof wrap will be happening to cover up the rust repair. Recently I received all the tools (tucking tools, magnets, knifeless tape, double sided foam tapes, etc) for learning how to wrap and for installing the aero kit.

So sort of flipped with back at the rear and orange up front? That could look good.

Yep! Similar to what Kevin did with his car: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3450509&postcount=82

Good 4 u

Car is home and has gotten some aero. Wrap, exhaust tips, and some other minor stuff are yet to arrive for "v2" to be complete.
New additions: rep TRD RS 1.0 lip, STI side skirts, rep tS rear spats, Legsport spoiler. Car runs and drives great, forgot how much dang fun this car is.

Coincidentally enough if I had kept it that lip and side skirt combo was exactly what I was considering. Even had them in a shopping cart at one point just before I decided to sell it. Didn’t think of the spats but they finish it off nicely.

The car looks great. Nice job!

very cool uri

villainous_frx · 06-22-2022, 09:13 PM

Went to UWO with my camera, nothing fancy just a fun night for a drive.

Wrapped the roof black and added TRD canards... wrapping sucks, major props to people who do it well for a living. I'm still going to give the livery a shot, and if it ends up being a 20 footer I'll be happy.

And got the interior mostly buttoned up: Vertex shift knob w/ lockout spacer, Blitz gauges in the TRD plate, radio in the glovebox. Still to do is build a mount for my Solo DL so that it covers the 3rd gauge hole.

Took the car to Autox, definitely different than lapping. Was fun to drive the car again on a course.

RToyo86 · 06-27-2022, 02:20 PM

I prefer lapping my self. Maybe it's just drivetime but auto-x from my experience is 99% standing around and 1% driving
