I can agree with you on the workmanship. I have seen some other pictures of another ta with supra lights, and it looked like a blind man did the body work. You are right though, the quality of the work does make it look good, but the lights just dont flow with the body.

Ads a kewl touch to the car, even if the honey comb tail lights are classic to an F-Body, theres still no mistaken that this is still a Trans Am.

Looks too busy back there.....I'll bet when that's all lit up, it looks like downtown Tokyo at night.

Appears to be really good craftsmanship, though...

Those lights look good on Supra's. They flow well. On a Fire bird they are ugly. It reminds me of that GTO that was tuned into a Chevelle. It just doesn't look right, no flow. It makes the rear look taller and out of ballence.

Where's the wings west commando wing and the light-up exhaust tips?

Quality workmanship doesn't mean something isn't ricey... ever taken a look at those LED import exhaust tips?

Originality isn't all its cracked up to be either... Noone wants a pink pinto for a reason.

This thing reminds me of a thread from a few weeks back about a camaro with Ferrari and Skyline bumpers. Click here:https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearance-detailing/220930-camaro-ferrari-skyline-bumpers.html

It's funny how he took the time to put those tail lights in there, but didn't take the time to fix the right side exhaust from hanging down. Looks trashy.

This pic is a repost from a bit ago

they did good workmanship for sure, but its too riced out for me. I do like the fact that it prolly attracts some un suspecting bingbongs to come rushing up to race thinking he is a supra at night.
