not speedholes but two speed vents with grilles, one below each tail light semi triangular, it would look so sick and match so perfectly that rear bumper, also the 3rd brake light needs to be longer, the supras is longer and the edge of the hatch is smoother, you might want to check those things,I LOVE how its coming toguether, everything looks so awesome! also on the rear of the rear fender a semitriangle with a grille would look amazing!
PS also try to mark lines that devide the rear fender from the rear bumper to give it a more natural look

and if you dont want to do the vents, just sand it down prime it and paint it, its basicly done, vents are optional.., you could do the l8er

Lol, why would he want the front touching the ground? And why is there a large 4 inch gap between the door and the fender even though the door is closed?

And yea, that rear was never my cup of tea.

Depens on the angle, brand, latch type etc... maybe its the fender that have been cut i dont know! I met the guy once in a car show that's about it...
your supra rear conversion looks better then that blue celica one... yours is modded to look like a supra no just a tail light conversion... you got more custom fabrication then him.. i see what you did with the hatch lines , riding them on top the tail lights... thats the right way to do that conversion.. i fabricated my hatch lines also if you look in my profile.. i rounded the corners... looks so much better IMO
I like it, I also like all the lights to be clear with colored bulbs.
sigh the cold sucks my fingers are frozen solid an bondo/fibeglass are drying to slow now

try baroing an electric heater or a hair blower(dryer) or I guess you could wait for a warm day, if I could pray I would have had for a sunny day, but if you feel the weather wont let you continue the project we will understant if you put it on hold for a couple of weeks/months frown.gif, unless you cou;d borrow a friends garage or something, next summer go to car clubs and shows and make some friends that share the same passion for cars like us, and ask them to let you work in their garages every now and then you know and just get them a couple of bears or something and maybe do them a couple of favors a or help them with anything, I've made really good friends on shows and they are really nice people. you should give it a try.
best luck and hope for a warmer day and as desperate as I am to see the project done, I will wait and man if you onle lived closer I could have hooked you up with my cousins garage! he said that whenever I want to do anything to my car that his doors are open and he has a really hot heater in there, all you have to do is move close to paterson NJ and I can convince him of lending the garage to you.
