I'm currently looking for some things to spruce up my 1st gen supra. While i wasn't expecting to find much I was surprised to find NOTHING Now I've so much surfing than my mouse pad is getting waterlogged but i cant seem to make much headway. Looking for anything from possible bolt on body mods (front lips, fender flares, hoods and I'm sure this is a shot in the dark but BODY KITS) wheel spacers and a few stock replacement parts for the interior. I'm hoping you guys have some links you could give me for perhaps some parts from overseas. anyway thanks for always keeping us informed and keeping us chuckling!

Cool! My asian brother from another mother gave me that nick name when I was 7. And to make it even more interesting... I was born under the sign of the MONKEY in 1968. Even more interesting is that my son was born under the same sign that fell on 2004... Now I'm called the Ape or the Primate, like a gorilla, I don't think twice about defending my group of people. I also have a custom bumper sticker, that I haven't put on yet, that says; "Mess with the monkey and get stomped!" Let me know how the parts hunting goes for you. I really do hope you succeed!

I take it you're a body guy! That's a skill I wish I had! I'm jealous!!! Just kidding! I do envy you a bit, though. Things I could have been able to accomplish had I not spent so much time refining my fighting skills... I'd rather do it my self than pay some one... You know?

no kidding a fellow competitor? i trained with David Biybe for about 4 yrs (hes world amature kickboxing champ 5 yrs running 1997-2002) I held the District title for a year till i blew out my left hamstring never really recovered... but anyhoo anybody who has patience common sense and a little bit of filler hardening compound and a buffer/grinder can be a body guy :P

Practice, practice, practice! No competition here, I stopped fighting illegally and proffesionally some 10 years ago. Got married bought a house and had some kids... Now my dream is to teach my kids all of the fighting skills they'll ever need. Now that I'm 40, I'm looking forward to retirement and a nice vacation to the Canary Islands. Never let an injury set you back. Take it from the one true mentor, Bruce Lee... His back injury never stopped him from moving forward! And he became THE icon of martial arts!
