I'm new to this forum but I wanted to post my detailing job from this weekend. I haven't really cleaned my 93.5 Supra HT very well this year but I decided to go all out. The front and rear bumpers had bad paint contamination (bugs, exhaust soot, dirt) and the car hasn't been waxed this year at all. Spent 8 hours on saturday and did the photo shoot today.



-Joy Soap Wash

-Mothers California Gold Clay Bar

-Joy Soap Wash

-Meguiars DC Polish

-Meguiars DC Carnuba Wax (Front and Rear bumpers double layer)

-Mother's Mag and Aluminum Polish (wheel lips and muffler)

-Black Magic Wet Tire Foam



Photos were taken by myself, but with a friend's Canon 20D, 100mm fixed lens.

Those front tires are the lowest profile I've ever seen. What did you use a tenth of an ounce of tire foam?? Car looks awesome. Great job!!!
 
Thanks! The car has a 67mm Boost Logic setup on stock fuel. I haven't dyno'd it yet as I just completed the upgrade but it should put down 500-520whp on pump.

Yep they are :) 285/30's to be exact. They are decently thick in person though.
 
we have the same color :)



Its next on my list as a present to my stepdad. What do you use to keep it an ethereal white like that?



Also, did you break down and buy the glass headlights or did you find some ultimate cleaning solution for them? Im thinking of sanding them progresively from 3000 up to 2000 grit sand paper, atleast thats what I have been told to do!
 
Headlights are the 97-98 style OEM. They are de-lined mostly from the factory so that aids in the cleaner look and the black housings (also OEM) aid the clean look. :)
 
Are those indicators under the headlights and the side markers stock? The reason I ask is because with JDM Supras, the front indicators are from a late model and the side markers are from an early model (96.5+)...

Stock 93-96 under headlights for sure and I am assuming the side markers are stock as well.
 
Beautiful Car, Nice photos, nice camera... I've been wanting to get a Canon SLR especially that 20D, but now they got the 30D.... Were they taken in the evening? Seems very gloomy.... I think it would come out awsome a little earlier...heehee.....Altogether nice job.

Beautiful car, I absolutely love how clean this car looks. Everything could pass for being OEM, but it still looks modified which, IMHO, is the absolute best look a Supra can have.



I am insanely envious of your car, keep up the good work!!!!
