Get yourself some tint paint in a can at your local hobby shop, Or if ya have an airbrush, mix 1part black to 4parts thinner and one good pass should give ya a translucent black for them headlights. The mix is kinda tricky so test it out on a piece of clear plastic first inorder to see if ya got it right.

no secret, i just tested on my treadmill, 18 mph....stage 2 top speed motor, and SUPER low to the ground if thats what did the trick, i really think its more of a show car....i mean i didnt design it with the rims and lights for racing....what kinda decal scheme should go on here....i was thinkin something on the hood fading back....ALSO any respons on the "blacked out" lights?

A few posts down I explain how I blacked out my headlights. I assume it would be about the same for the supra. Good Luck!

hey is there any way we could get you to take a shot of it with the lights on in the blackouts?

i decided to night shade it, the light showed through just fine, but i wanted something else.....so i drilled holes for fog lights, and put blue leds in, full power they are pretty bright...here is two pics.

Nice work! What would look like to go ahead and throw some lights behind those shades too?

Thanks guys...i dunno, sometimes i feel ive ruined my car, by chopping itt up, and drilling it, and coloring it....maybe for xmas i will ask for a new one, and keep it completely rs.......good idea?? by the way, im looking for a team...

Keep it RS stock???

No way!

It takes time to build up the skills to make a show quality car, and you will probably mess some things up on the way of learning those skills

from what you have posted so far, it looks like a decent job! I'm sure if you had multiple bodies then each would look better than the rest.

Keep moddin!

Those lights are wicked awesome!
