Body restauration of my ae86 has started, here are some pictures:

As seen there's a lot of rust at the back, the front is ok.

There will be a lot of work, but my mechanic says he can fix everything without buying new body parts Smile We'l see...

TNX Smile
I think chasis repair is the first thing that should be done in my case...

We'll see how it will progress...

Nice!

This is what my AE86 needs too...
Thinking of maybe buying aftermarket rear fenders for my car, we'll see how it turns out.

Keep up the good work!

I dont think it is! You can however use rear wings from a Starlet EP7# to make a rebuilt kit - it has almost the same shape... I did that on mine - it costed me ~70€ Smile

Doesnt fender mean bumper?!? The visible part of the wing is nearly identical to the one from a Starlet. Behind the bumper youll need to make something by hand... I dont have any pics of it right now, but I can try to get a hold of some if you would like to see it Smile
