Somewhere out there is someone who simultaneously thinks this is cool and also shits pink Twinkie's over fake hood vents.

Anything that tries to make your $60K car look like a supercar is more disgusting than huge wangs and giant splitters.

Looks like they're trying to trick non-car-people into thinking the Supra is a rear engine car. There is no other reason why you'd put that abomination on your rear window.

I honestly can't hate this one. It's a bit much for my taste, and you can no longer see out the back window. But it actually looks kinda cool imo. A bit like the Exige.

I’d just sell the Supra and mortgage the house to buy the Exige before putting that giant dental brace retainer on my car.

It also reminds me of something a mega cheesy lawyer would ask you to wear in front of a mentally inept jury to pretend you’re hurt so bad, only lots of money could possibly make you and your car whole again lol

I've seen the complete kit on a guy's car here in Southern California... It's hideous (to me).
Yeah, I believe you. I just like the marketing images but in real life I would probably hate it the same way I generally hate wide-body kits, etc. The white on black/neon yellow/green and new shape just gives it a really unique look online.

I just realized the robot craftsman has the secondary element UNDER the main element. They didn't even bother to look at a reference image from a race car SMDH

I know it's 100% for show.. but I honestly don't hate the complete kit.

I’ve seen this in real life. And it looks great.

I know is a show piece and that the whole aero makes no sense from a physics or practical standpoint, but in that case the whole car is done as an art piece and I can get the concept.

Also have another non Supra car that is ridiculously Riced, so I have no moral standing to criticize LOL

I have to agree. I think a lot of people are looking at it from a functional/car guy standpoint. In which case, it's a dumb kit attempting to make a front engine car look like a mid/rear engine car.

But if you look at it solely for aesthetics, not focused on the drivetrain layout...it's a nice looking kit.

But if you're going to go thru all that effort... Why NOT make some parts of it functional? That's the part i don't get. A terrible mold and a decent mold cost the same (ignoring top tier bespoke aero design, just building something based on best practices). Why go with the terrible one?

I generally hate wide body kits - I don't care how functional they are - but this kit created a brand new car that to my eyes, looked pretty cool. 😅

24' Supra 3.0 MT... the Orange one
show people get it rough -- they're given a hard time for having non-functional show pieces on their car. Yet if they do put on functional pieces, but don't track... they're given a hard time for having a wannabe race car lol
