Can someone help me with a custom project?
I have a 1995 Toyota Supra Turbo and I want my XMOD to look exactly like it. I have the right wheels for it, but I need a new body kit that isn't currently made, the veilside kit. I also need the car painted Baltic Blue and the wheels painted bronze/gold. Here is a pic of what it should look like and is there any way to get a body kit made like this? I was thinking there might be some kind of veilside model kit to scale that could be "morphed" with my xmod. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

You could also try modifying the existing body kit with putty.

I doubt I'd ever get it right with putty. I have found a 1/24 size RX-7 Veilside model I might get and mess around with. I may be able to piece together the components, but they may be a bit big, we'll see.

hey i really like your supra it looks nice. but with it being so rare why would you mod the body at all? i know it took me a long time to even do anything to my MKIV. i think it took me almost 6 monts to talkmyself into a basic performance upgrade. but anyways the only thing i could sugest is start looking around the import hobby sites. i have seen a few veilside kits at about the 1:24th 1:25th scale range.

I think yall are confused. I'm not going to do these changes to my real Supra, I want to make my XMod Supra look like my real one (pictured).

well, pacificwarriors confused me a bit, making it seem like I was modding my real car as pictured. Your post was a bit confusing because you asked me why would I mod the body at all. I now assume you are wondering why I put the veilside kit on my real car but at first thought you thought that that pic was of my xmod or something.
ANYWAY, this is getting more confusing. I intended no accusations, I suppose that I was confused myself, sorry!
As for why I'd mod my real supra... The stock supra is begging for modifications and tuning and I'm just giving it to it, :-)! This is no super special 30xxx mile beauty or anything, it is my 90xxx mile daily driver. There is nothing I have modified on this car that is irreversible either and I intend to keep it that way, just in case I ever want to restore it to OEM spec. Peace

OH YEAH... I have seen the 1/25th Veilside supra models too. That may work, I'll have to give it a try at some point in the next few weeks.
