Hello friends. After being the proud owner of an MR2 for 15 years, I have already decided that her time to update it. My plans are changing body image for apr kit, custom wheels, exhaust, and update the interior of the car. After finish this I'll get into the world of 2ZZ but for now I'll start with the aesthetics. I hope you will forgive me if something is not well understood but I will speak English and am using a translator. Greetings to all and hope to be helpful as much as you are to me. U hug
Surely many of you know the kit and who was their previous owner.

My Spanish is rubbish, it turns out, so is googles.
"Thank you for speaking in Spanish . So I see it fluent . I would also like ailerons those that seem clothes ironing boards . Which will put is an OEM and so will not have problems to homologate . A big hug"

Quote from: "s12vea"Your project is coming a long nicely.

the next thing I'll do is install the rear TRD bar. Bar ultra racing front and I'm hoping to get a screen to mount a navipod and finish the work of the center console that even I have unfinished. surely, after doing this, purchasing a threaded damping bc and it will emerge more to do. You know, the projects never end, maybe I dare later a swap
Where did you get the carbon chrome surrounds for the door pulls? And also the dial surround?

Hi Richard, With the translation of the translator I do not understand the question . What do you like to know ?
The console: It is longer than the original console. Is this difficult to remove as it is larger?
(Sorry if that seems rude or derogatory, it really isn't! Just hoping to make the translator a bit more simple s:) :) s:) )
