Looks good.. however the factory exhaust next to the wall is what I am afraid of if I get the HKS.. that would not fly in my garage.. I wonder if I can just cut it and couple it together when ready to sell the car..
It would only cost $75-$200 to weld back together at your local muffler shop, so if you NEED the space, cut it up. Just be thoughtful about where you cut it for easier re-installation.

I suppose I'll cut it up into little pieces in this case! Thanks!!

This is an all around good looking Supra.

I applied 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating to most of the exterior. I don't yet know about the long-term properties, but today it especially improved the appearance of the satin black plastic parts:

It's a weird product, not like anything I've used before. It smells like WD-40 and feels kinda like the graphite lubricant for locks.

There are some caveats:

1. It darkened some shallow rock chips on my hood that I hadn't been aware of:

I was able to mostly clean that up with some rubbing alcohol.

2. I think it darkened some of the edges on my PPF, but it's hard to be sure. If I use it again, I'll stay clear of my PPF edges.

3. It stained a bunch of my microfiber cloths.

So far, maybe recommended, but probably better suited to a Nocturnal Black than my Absolute Zero White.

So every time I would get in my car it would smell kinda like a spicy meatball sandwich, but then it would soon disappear as soon as I started driving. Was I imagining it? I was almost ready to post something asking if anyone else was having this problem, but I figured there had to be something lurking in the car somewhere. Finally today I opened both doors, got on the ground, and looked under and behind the seats (where I was reminded that the seats have map pockets in the back, which is pretty cool). Finally I found the culprit -- a head of garlic that had apparently fallen out of a grocery bag was growing happily in the darkness beneath the passenger seat. Garlic removed, I left the doors and the hatch open for a couple of hours. The reassuring Supra interior aroma is coming back. Slowly.
Buy this it works: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BGYRYMF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I used that little machine to get rid of Marijuana smell out of my 2,000 sq rental home that I owned when I went to sell...still pissed about that.

I "modified" one of my wheels on a Minnesota pothole yesterday.

Luckily it was my cheap winter set, but still a bad afternoon. I'm thinking I should get an alignment next week.
if it's worth your time- from what i remember from living in minnesota you can get the DOT to pay for some of this stuff sometimes
