    they still seem pretty good a few months afterwards. is it as good as a proper headlight restoration kit probably not but it's a damn sight cheaper and still makes them look a tonne better and yeah I just treated it like paint polish pop it on little circles round and round for quite a while letting the toothpaste very gently buff the lens then just clean it off 👌

    Hello all I have been lurking in the background for a little while and picked up my 86 back in september. I have always been a car enthusiast (mainly vw stuff) and then had quite a few years away from any car related social life after having bambino. So I decided it was high time to treat myself and I had been spying the 86 for years and was finally in a position to get one and it sure isnt disappointing. so I've had the car for about 5 months now and progress is a little slower than what I'd like but I've tinkered a little bit until we are allowed out of lockdown and I can start earning again. I'll post what bits I've done so far.

    TRD wheels back from powdercoating, the temptation to go bronze was real but settled on satin black which is tonnes better than the diamond cut, konig hypergramms will be my bronze wheel of choice come summertime hopefully.

    brought the headlights back to life a little bit using some good old Colgate. before during after it's all pretty boring stuff at the moment but I promise it will get ever so slightly more interesting

    got hold of some black badges 👌 before during, once I'd debadged and cleaned it all up I ended up never fitting the black gt86 and toyota badge underneath the liscence plate but just popped the black emblem on instead. after

    as you can see there was a couple of mods by the previous owner but nothing had been done performance wise just the vinyl and the rear spoiler. so I picked her up and it was lashing it down 🙃 so I waited till the shy uk sunshine reared its head and set to work getting those vinyls off the side before during (before getting to work removing left over adhesive and gunk) after all nice and clear looking 10 times cleaner I really wasnt a fan of the vinyl at all like the second it stopped raining it was off 😅
