Lose the wing. Actually, I like mr2owner's idea. Get some nice cross drilled rotors that will look nice through your rims.

yeah, i mean it looks cool, but your car is FWD... it's like a a dress, sure the dress may look good on a chick, but if a guy that isnt supposed to wear it (like a car that isnt supposed to have a wing) has it on, YIKES...see what i mean?


but the rest of the Camry is
and the Supra is

the 1st time i saw the wing way long ago i was like :o
but then i guess people can grow to like it
now when i look at it, it looks alright to me
i guess it's each man's preference
nice car alex! my next step.. is too much to list since my car is like stock! haha

I'm not a huge fan of wings, but if its your thing, KEEP IT. BTW, how the fvck did you get a sponser?? Details bro! I think the next step should be power, brakes and tranny, then look into turbo, if "money ain't a thang" for you! :wink:

Tranny Swap



Go for the swap. More power, better mileage, more respect.

i really want to do interior..but thats not going to be for a while.

i want to pretty much completely finish the exteriror and have a swap done before i work on the interior.

i think i've desided that i'm going to do the tranny swap next...then work on other stuff, like cross drilled rotors, mold the middle taillight piece, and other little stuff like that.
