What did you do to your Supra today?

[Blindspot]

Just about wrapped up my center exit exhaust. Need to polish the cover plate and it’ll be complete.

That looks so damn good, I love it. I did a similar thing: single titanium pipe from the DP and splits into two just before exiting the hole we cut in the center of my bumper. I went with two long tips because it reminds me of a GT-whatever but I am wishing I did three now that I see yours.

Added two small LED reverse lights on either side of the exhaust as well, just so I at least have them for when I back into someone or something haha

Car looks on point. What color of the BC golds is this? Royal, Brushed Gold?
Can’t call it
Thank you.

Rubber well nuts are used a lot to hold motorcycle fairing on bikes. It's the fine detail finish that often makes these sort of mods I think.

Not trying to be a smart ass, just curious: Would rubber well nuts hold up in a heat soaked environment like that? I'd imagine that plate would get COOKING! If they didn't melt, I'd imagine stress cracks and eventually failure?

They'll hold up better than the plastic rear exhaust diffuser. Remember exhaust systems on cars and bikes use rubber isolators and mounts all the time without issue and they are in brackets connected directly to the pipes.

Ah 100% right, I have had those exact rubber isolators you speak of on several bikes!

most people break the $23 hose, I cracked the $230 carbon part instead. Also if anyone has some advice on if this is an easy clear fix or not would be appreciated, and maybe I'm spoiled by how loud my evo 8 intake is but it didn't seem all that loud imo.

X-Acto knife - pop off any loose flakes. Sand with 200-300 grit. JB Weld Quick Dry Epoxy - brush it on. After it dries sand with 3000 grit. Epoxy. Done.

You can stop after the first coat of epoxy if it's nice and smooth. Depends on how well you did the rest and/or how bad the crack is.

@Justtakea just send it to Jeff and he'll repair it for you. It may come back with a seemingly bizarre Fauvist painting on top, but his turnaround time is only a couple weeks

Not currently a Supra owner, was in the past. Snapped this nice Orange one in Dubai where Im at currently. Still have not seen a Z lol!

Bought a set of 10mm spacers and tested on one front and one rear wheel.

pretty happy about the front, still undecided if the rear will be 10 or the next size up 13mm.

Make sure they are wheel centric with a lip. I don’t think 10mm are.

The 10s I use from BMS are.

~ 10mm spacers are typically all hub centric... anything less is not hub centric.

I said wheel centric. ? Wheel centric have the lip. Only hub centric do not.

I’d personally recommend the 13. I’m running 13 front and 15 rear and the larger sized rear looks great. At the end of the day it’s only a couple MM so either choice is great.
