Great decision! What did you use to remove it?
How did you manage to remove oxidation?
I used an applicator pad and some Mother's Mag and Aluminum Polish. It takes a good bit of work, but it comes off. I'm sure there are better ways to it.

I tried my buffer, but the corners of tips were destroying my pads. I'm sure there some different pads you could use with a buffer that won't get destroyed.


Here's a before and after of them installed:

Installed my Armaspeed intake and Verus heat shield! Sorry for the terrible pictures, lighting it terrible in my garage.

Thank you so much. It was difficult to gauge the look on the white car on google. I'm sold now though.

Any chance you got this prepainted through rexpeed?

Got PPF and ceramic coating done. Went with STEK Dynoshield PPF - full front-end coverage (front bumper, full hood, full front fenders, headlights), door pucks/door edges, partial rear bumper (the wedge-shaped side panels behind the rear wheels), and CQuartz Professional ceramic coating. Absolutely top-notch work by John and his team at Metropolitan Detail in Redmond, WA.

No pics, because you’ve all seen them before, but:

I had the Cusco front and rear sway bars + the front and rear “power braces” installed this week.

I finally got a chance to drive one of my favorite twisty backroads with the new kit and highly recommend it. The car feels much more “on its toes” in corners now. I previously had an 86 on springs and loved the (relative) light weight of that platform.

The new gear makes the Supra feel like a lighter car, no longer having to wait for the car to roll a bit and then take a set. Now she just goes where you point her.

Since I didn’t do the changes in isolation I can’t comment on what parts made the most difference (likely the sways), but collectively they are a very harmonious upgrade.

I did something that some people might find unforgiveable. I removed the thermal oxidation from my Remark titanium tips.

I left some darkening on the very end. I kind of like the way it looks.
Love that without. I like the HKS, wish it was without also :) Nice!

Last night I did the sound system mod that @tadda supplied here in the forum but I followed @ThicWhips instructions after he posted his video and it definitely made a difference in the sound system. It sounds so much better. I have the WeatherTech liner and it covers more or less half of the holes but it sounds the same to me with or without the liner. Just an FYI for those who may be wondering. You can feel the air coming out the holes when the bass thumps.
All I’m missing is the speaker mesh and it will be complete

PS: I was able to find all of the paddings at my local Jo-Aan Fabrics store

shout out and thanks to @tadda and @ThicWhips again!
