AusJapanLexus Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 Hey SK, Was just looking at your machine again.. I am wondering how you get your front lights looking so sparkely white and clean.. how did you do it, and what chems did you use? And another thing.. why no badges? Chris
Steve Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 the get your lights clean you need to use a rubbing compound.. Here we use T-Cut.. it supposed to take out minor scratches from paintwork as it takes a very very small amount of paint off. use this on yor headlights and keep rubbing... clean off and be suprised!
SKperformance Posted July 11, 2003 Author Posted July 11, 2003 the lights aer just normally like that i keep them clean but i have the 94 version not the 95-96 which have a different plastic that does tend to yellow there is a product i got from meguires called scratch x it seems to work well and is made for plastics and glass that are clear i wanted a clean look so i removed all the badges 2 years ago and filled the holes the kit is hand made using a trd for 97-99 camry as a base for the style and tehn remoulded
Steve Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 my goodness.. more questions where did you get that grill from?.. dude you ave to help me out here! LOL
SKperformance Posted July 12, 2003 Author Posted July 12, 2003 that grille is a labour of love i hand built it in abuot 7 hours of forming sheet metal and some bondo to smooth the edges the lower lip when made will have the same style of tip to it as well then i just place a black grille behind it and it was done i am going to restyle it a bit though and smooth the top edge of the tip off to give it a smoother look
Matthew_McNally Posted July 14, 2003 Posted July 14, 2003 Sharad I am creating galleries to hold pictures from these sort of shows - so we can have them nicely organised and easy to find when trying to get people to go next year! :D do you want me to create one for this show, so you can upload all the pictures to it? if so - what was the show called?
SKperformance Posted July 14, 2003 Author Posted July 14, 2003 that sounds like a much better idea it was called "the darknight nationals " yah most pics are nice to look at but don't need to be lumped in there with other ES's
