What did you do to your Supra today?

[VelgenWheels]

Got her washed and waxed today. I beautiful day in Indiana. So excited about warmer weather and cars shows.

Love your build looks sick!

I was also wondering if anyone thinks this sounds right.

To have my big brake kit installed and coilovers installed at a rate of $110... they charged me about $1750 ($1950 after taxes).

$690 for ride height adjustment.
$260 for alignment
$805 for BBK Install

Others will have more experience, but this seems high to me. Even if the price was right, they treated you poorly. What shop was this, so we know to avoid them?

Let's see if this helps with the wind buffering... ?

$1000 for the install and alignment doesn't seem insane, the other 700 does.

I have this, and it does make a difference.

I wanted to create an open thread of miscellaneous things you did on or to your Supra today.

Added ceramic tint 35% to the front windshield. Blocks out 86% of the UV rays. Much needed before the real heat comes.

Took a trip to Lowes and came out to a nice Mustang parked next to me, I heard this was a common occurrence : ) nice cars parking next to each other..... what a nice treat!

I did the same with the cusco front sway, really change the car. the springs don't really drop too much more, I wish it was half an inch lower in the rear, but oh well!

Yeah it settled quite a bit in the first day or two, I'm not seeing much change now. I don't want the rear to drop anymore, lol, it looks perfect as-is IMO

I do that a lot. It's mostly because if I see a nice car, I know they take care of it, and they're probably more likely to respect another person's car and not smash their door into it

Did some highway pulls, lost to a c63 amg with 4 grown men in it. I may sell the supra and buy a Cayman GT4.

Slapped on the stripes. Looks so nice. These are very well made, good material. Got them from Garfixpressions. Delivery took forever, but worth the wait. Matte black & I got the install spray to align perfectly.

I ordered mine and it showed up 6 days late and it so happened to be right after I got my Supra ceramic coated : ( I was told it would not adhere properly now! Also the person who packed my stripes scratched the vinyl. Looks sick tho bro!

Hmm .. I’m ceramic coated too. Hope they stay stuck. Feel like they are stuck good. time will tell. Maybe they will slide off after first car wash. hope not

If highway racing is your thing, just get a Challenger Hellcat Redeye. You’ll never lose again.
