I think you made a great decision not making it wide body. That car looks great just the way it is. As far as color I think you should leave it the same or a darker gun metal grey. I would use actual Toyota paint. Anyway you look at it that car look like it's moving (fast) sitting still. Love it.
I thought you wanted to do a stock restauration to a "collectors car"? Already wondered last episode when you trashed the Plastic Trims and said its all gonna be Carbon ^^
I actually really respect the B is for Build team for taking the time and the effort to listen to the peanut gallery. I know a couple of channels who would write them off as entitled, but I'm glad this team isn't one of them. And if you're reading this, guys, I hope you have a great, healthy and peaceful week.
I like the direction of this build. Just an idea for the hood would be to repair the damage, then flat black the center section leaving the exposed carbon on the outer portions. The big worry is finding frame rails out of square once you start bolting things back in.
Since you are not painted the inside of the car I think you have to go with silver again so it doesn’t look patchy. Just go with the stock colour but add a pearl to the paint.
AMG Solarbeam Yellow + Carbon would look a cracker on your supra Chris! Love the build, also check out the Ridox kit, i think you have the front bumper and side skirts, now get that rear end!!!
paused @ 12:24 so glad you are picking this route. Make something you will love. Don't just crap out for views. I am so glad i never unsubbed. So glad it's back to classic BFB. I can't wait
You should get a attic fan setup where it runs all night to get the building cool but turns off during the day. also get one with filters and baffles to keep the dust out.
Idea for the Carbon Bonnet/Hood... If you really wanted to keep at least some exposed Carbon, could you not add some Stripes or some sort of Decal/Logo to the areas that need repairing?
Personally, I'd go with that Mercedes silver/gunmetal metallic that looks like liquid metal. Expensive paint but so amazeballs. And would look murder with carbon fiber accents, black chrome, tinted windows and black wheels.
Completely agree with you there mate, I would go as far as to say even Mercedes solarbeam yellow triple layered would look unbelievable on this in the sunshine.
Yeah, silver looks amazing on a Supra, especially with carbon fiber parts. The only other color I'd possibly paint it would be Lamborghini's Nero Nemesis, which is on the complete other end of the spectrum, but it's a wicked color.
If that rear over-fender had fit. He was just going to cover the smashed rear fender with some aftermarket fiberglass but he's worried about the resale value.... 😂
That's what I thought too, before I ended the video. I was almost shouting "what a half ass job, damn" But I'm glad the rear fender didn't fit and he decided to repair it as stock. That was a close call. Lol
I liked all of it. Glad to see you noticed sum of us hated change and kept it OG. I look forward to you all building my dream car. I thank you for keeping it mild. I really respect what you doing. Less talk more fab.
Not doing the wide body is a good decision in my book. I don't know whether it's a good idea to do the aftermarket parts, but you already got them and the car has crash history sooo perhaps it's the best idea in this case. For the color... Skyline blue? 😉 Pearlescent white? Some shade of extremely dark brown (no really). Good luck on deciding and on the build in general 👍🏻
Just killing it with content…the frikkin R69, the resurrected Mustang, and a Supra build now?! This is going to look sick, and DEF paint not wrap this time. White is my go to, but anything from the full Toyota lineup would look killer, the modern 4Runner TRD Concrete (very Nardo gray-ish) or any limited TRD colors…
Hey man, like where you're going with this one. I think you should definitely do a Pearl white with carbon fiber bits, especially if you can get that hood back right. But definitely like it so far, can't wait to see what Wheels you're thinking. I already know they're going to be Konigs. Keep doing what you're doing man
Sins I was young I saw a paint job on a Moto Cross helmet... Plumb Crazy Purple to start then it bubbles nicely into Candy Apple red and same bubble effect into Pearl white on the rear.. It look's great, tad expensive. Plan was to do a truck that way but a head injury stopped me from driving altogether.. Stay Safe Guy's, glad everything is going good so far health wise.. :)
You have a rear gem here... I think the quality of a restoration determines the price. You have a rear opportunity to show how to do a proper OEM restore on B is for build and you, Oscar and Kyle have the quality craftsmanship to do it... To me putting on aftermarket parts is like filling in the crossword in your action comic 1
Agreed. He needs to stop buying parts of eBay and just pull out the cash to get oem parts. Oem to the best of his ability. I'm sure they are a little scarce
Because we've seen B is for Build do crazy stuff and I know they can build crazy stuff, it would be nice to see you guys build a really clean, pro level restomod.
Keep here to that Snow White look. I don't why... But with Supra's of that Generation... They look good in White. Can't wait to see this JDaM beauty come back to life.
Glad to see your going to replace the Qtr. panel and that was not molding it's weather stripping, you should remove it completely during repair as weld spatter can damage it and it should be removed for paint work also, I had my own body shop for over 20 years and did a lot of restorations and that car deserves factory replicated repairs with no shortcuts and no wrap which will de-value that car, set it on tall jack stands and hang some frame gauges in the proper locations to make sure it is structurally correct, you can even make simple gauges with cheap flat link chain, flat bar, S hooks and a 4 inch machine screw mounted in the center of the bar, if done right it's just as accurate as a set of $1500 gauges, it's time well spent for the kind of money these cars are commanding.
I can't believe you waited so long to was the engine bay. When rebuilding/restoring a car, giving it a complete clean is the first thing you're supposed to do. And for the color... the factory silver is absolutely the right color for that car, and the contrast of the carbon looks amazing.
That's funny as hell. During the last episode, I was tempted to leave a comment about possibly powerwashing the car before you started work but I figured you wanted that "dramatic improved change" look from start to finish, so I shut my mouth!
That hood is sick! That should not be too difficult to repair and easily looks good enough to leave as a carbon finish. If that were my car, I would paint it the stock silver, but get it wrapped in red. Others were suggesting a deep metallic red and I agree.
Please leave it stock color with a pearl or mettalic in it and if you want to change the color you can Wrap it afterwards. That way it stays kinda oem with door jams and hatch silver.
Mercedes has a colour that’s selenite grey metallic. With black accents, it’s aggressive as hell and would look amazing on this Supra build. Especially with an exposed carbon hood.
I know that you have 3D printed small body parts before, but have you considered getting an oversized 3D printer like a Voron 2.4 and 3D printing entire fenders in 1 or 2 pieces? You can get Voron printer kits in half meter cubed print volume, and I'm fairly sure people have built them even bigger. And the Voron is monsterously fast for a 3D printer without being ridiculously expensive.
Irish green pearl, for a paint color idea, I personally fell in love with the color once I bought my 2003 Audi A6 basically a 2 tone color, at times it's a nice dark metallic Green or a metallic black depending on lighting ect, you should definitely give it a chance, I also think it would go good with a exposed carbon fiber hood
For the colour i would take blue pearl metallic. Its a stock Supra mk4 colour (later models 1997/1998) and it looks awsome! The paint code is: 8L5 Good luck with the build and i hope you make it this colour 😁
I know it would be a bit ironic, but I have always liked British Racing Green as a really nice car color that I think gets overlooked a lot simply because of its name. I think it would be a great color for the Supra!
I have always said that if I ever owned a Supra, I'd paint it or wrap it a deep candy apple red with mid-tone gunmetal grey accents for vents/venting and have at least 2-3" deep dish rims.
Dude, keep it as close to stock as possible, that whole wide body thing is so overdone, too many people are doing it and it would ruin the value of the car.
I 100% agree!!!! How many cookie cutter widebody supras are out there.... Unless you were doing that crazy ass Vielside kit from the PS2 game Need for Speed (most wanted).. I think they look so clean in their stock form with maybe a lip or something.
You should do Deep Jewel Green Metallic. It’s a factory Supra color but I think it was only on the 1997 model and is pretty rare. Would look great with some CF and maybe Bronze wheels!
So glad your keeping this car stockish, not a fan of the garish wide body stuff that is going around. Thats my choice, not saying it has to be yours for me to watch. My mantra will always be" Your money, your time, your choice". Looking good so far.
I’d personally go fully original, including bonnet! check the uk for parts! These weren’t and aren’t rare, well twin turbo less so. But supras in general
I don't know How Find Such good Looking parts the Bonnet Bumper and side Skirts are Awesome I love them This Car is Yet Another one that's Going to look so Good Thanks Great Vlog
For the color, use the new dark green that toyota has for the 4 runner I think. Maybe add a little metallic flake. Then do carbon accents and dark bronze wheels
I would love to see you paint the Supra imperial jade mica. I think the color code is 6q7 from Toyota. If I’m not mistaken, that color is the rarest on supras and was only used on turbo models in 1998.
B judging by the ridox kit you have. The white pieces with orange insides are from g.r.a.m.s.. I do not recommend using g.r.a.m.s since their quality is super terrible, but all the black pieces are from shine auto. Closest, affordable, clean almost perfect fitment as the authentic ridox aero. I had an accident with my mk4 a few years back and I had to replace the entire driver quarter panel. I’m sure they are still available since I also had another buddy of mines who has ordered one very recent. They still make them so if you are planning on stay stock rears you can just order one from Toyota.
On one hand, yes I get it because I watch B is for Build. On the other hand, the Ridox kit... When I went to a track day at Tsukuba back in 2013, Orido-san (MAX ORIDO on YT) bought me ramen and a drink because I was literally shaking while trying to take video. He put a lot of effort into that kit, it pays his bills and helps put his daughter through school (who is an absolute beast at ballet.. Miri Orido) and not to mention his other daughter, Maaya (who has her dad's Yankee streak). It's difficult to support knockoffs in this situation.
You said that the carbon fiber looks good on a darker color. Go with a dark grey. Take a look at the Hyundai Thunder Grey (Color Code YG7). Super nice grey with LOADS of metal flake. I run a Seibon CF Hood on my 2020 Veloster Turbo in the Thunder Grey and I always get compliments on it.
MotionAutoTV did a rear quarter replacement on a supra and a full restoration. I would totally get with him and get some pointers and tips for most knowledge going into it
The original colour looks good, this car just needs some coil overs and a good exhaust 🤷🏼♂️ I suggest spraying the hood body colour top and bottom and fix with filler, with what u have right now there isn’t much u need to do to revive this beast
In the early-mid 90s, before I got my license, Trust/Greddy had a Supra in a dark green, similar to RE Amemiya green slash British Racing green. Can’t find the magazine nor pics anymore. It was #1 awesome imo tho! ✨✨
Download the FREE Upside App at upside.app.link/bisforbuild to get $5 or more cash back on your first purchase of $10 or more.
Yo Chris if you want some help on the quarter replacement I’m local and a journeyman Autobody technician
If you have to paint the hood you could put a stripe or sticker logo or something on it by leaving the carbon as an accent.
I would suggest dozer orange py5,ky5 for the paint the color or a gunmetal grey
Literally nobody gives two shits and wont be buying into this.
100% stock would never look like a B is for Build car. Good to see you've found a way to make both sides happy.
Both
Never widebody a Mk.4 supra, you just can’t. One of the best body shapes/lines ever for a production car
@@austinh1028 100% agree. If she's got a fat ass already you don't get her the Nikki Minaj treatment
@@austinh1028 ok, but I disagree... there is no holly car that you can't do whatever you want with it. Supras are nice, and that's all.
I think the crash history will decrease the value anyway
I think you made a great decision not making it wide body. That car looks great just the way it is. As far as color I think you should leave it the same or a darker gun metal grey. I would use actual Toyota paint. Anyway you look at it that car look like it's moving
(fast) sitting still. Love it.
I actually agree on this, I feel like wide bodies are played out and the Supra has such elegant body lines to begin with.
nardo grey is awesome
100% agree
I like the idea of a darker factory gray. I think the jdm Supras moonstone gray would look great.
@@petersawadalla nardo gray is played out to death like murdered out cars after big black
I thought you wanted to do a stock restauration to a "collectors car"? Already wondered last episode when you trashed the Plastic Trims and said its all gonna be Carbon ^^
Yeah, this went 0-100 real quick. lol.
Restoration *
I mean he said tasteful mods, so I guess basically just a nice road car
My thougts too.
Why do you care? It's his car...
I actually really respect the B is for Build team for taking the time and the effort to listen to the peanut gallery. I know a couple of channels who would write them off as entitled, but I'm glad this team isn't one of them.

Just paint it... people should have gotten over the novelty of seeing the weave by now. Carbon should be function over form.
@@endgovernmentextremism if it’s meant for function painting over it would add weight making the product work less effectively
The 90s dream collection is complete, Chris!
FD RX7, R34 GT-R, MKIV Supra.
Would love to see a photoshoot of the three together once they’re done 😍
Nsx is missing
Lancer EVO?
Since you are not painted the inside of the car I think you have to go with silver again so it doesn’t look patchy. Just go with the stock colour but add a pearl to the paint.
Ooooh, you remember the Z4 build with Tavarish too....
@@mattedsmith yeah red engine bay looks bad
AMG Solarbeam Yellow + Carbon would look a cracker on your supra Chris! Love the build, also check out the Ridox kit, i think you have the front bumper and side skirts, now get that rear end!!!
I JUST LOST ALL MY ENTHUSIAM when I heard you were going to widebody this beauty!! 😩 Thankfully you're keeping it stock Supra body 💯
Yes sir :)
paused @ 12:24 so glad you are picking this route. Make something you will love. Don't just crap out for views. I am so glad i never unsubbed. So glad it's back to classic BFB. I can't wait
Been thinking it for a couple weeks, but I love the flex of using R34 GTR wheels for a rolling chassis.
You should get a attic fan setup where it runs all night to get the building cool but turns off during the day. also get one with filters and baffles to keep the dust out.
So happy this car avoided the widebody craze! 30 years from now we'll look back shake our heads like we do to the early 90's bodykits.
So satisfying watching the engine bay clean. Like letting out a 10 second fart that takes your stomach ache away
You paint a beautiful picture with your words sir.
It's a great decision to keep it stock. Colour-wise, a triple layer blue (see Ferrari) or a triple layer purple (see Koenigsegg) would look stunning.
stock is boring
Just needs a little *PRIMER! :)*
And then we can drive it!
I think a dark metallic red would really suit this car and make it stand out from your other builds.
Great minds think alike, I just suggested Rapid Red Metallic lol
Yes.
Absolutely agree, but a really dark metallic red
Red
Idea for the Carbon Bonnet/Hood... If you really wanted to keep at least some exposed Carbon, could you not add some Stripes or some sort of Decal/Logo to the areas that need repairing?

Supra OEM Royal Sapphire Blue would be the coolest in my opinion.
Great video as always. I agree you should try to keep it as factory looking as possible. Some subtle changes still work, so you’re on the right path
You might want have certain spots pulled before you take any metal off in the rear.
Love the progress and explanation of your decisions, thanks Chris! For color, I would love to keep it a Toyota color, so how about the Hakone Green?!?
OEM parts are very respectable!! Love this series
Hey man, like where you're going with this one. I think you should definitely do a Pearl white with carbon fiber bits, especially if you can get that hood back right. But definitely like it so far, can't wait to see what Wheels you're thinking. I already know they're going to be Konigs. Keep doing what you're doing man
Work at aToyora dealer in Montreal and we had a bone stock 98 Turbo Supra in the shop for some work . Very rare sight !
Sins I was young I saw a paint job on a Moto Cross helmet... Plumb Crazy Purple to start then it bubbles nicely into Candy Apple red and same bubble effect into Pearl white on the rear.. It look's great, tad expensive. Plan was to do a truck that way but a head injury stopped me from driving altogether.. Stay Safe Guy's, glad everything is going good so far health wise.. :)
Can you work with a really good frame / body shop or something and just pull the existing body panel out?

Color can be an very dark grey with green metallic flakes and name it " the missile"
Or pearl white

Yeah nah, stock body would of been way better ay.
it goes in the right direction. Good job!
The new mazda red could suit it perfectly !
Chris, leave some exposed carbon on the vents, paint the remained of that hood. An go with a matte black, so it blends well.
I can't believe you waited so long to was the engine bay. When rebuilding/restoring a car, giving it a complete clean is the first thing you're supposed to do. And for the color... the factory silver is absolutely the right color for that car, and the contrast of the carbon looks amazing.
I was promised B is for Boat content
Is that the bomex fromt bumper?
That's funny as hell. During the last episode, I was tempted to leave a comment about possibly powerwashing the car before you started work but I figured you wanted that "dramatic improved change" look from start to finish, so I shut my mouth!
A dark cherry red color for the Supra with some metallic black rims might be a good look for the build.
You'd like the speed academy supra then..
Chris, I know you are going to make the Supra look great! You deserve to have your dream car.
Maybe store some original parts that have been replaced with aftermarket so it can go back if he sells
Mk4 Supra from the factory has some of the best color choices, Royal Sapphire Pearl, Imperial Jade Mica, and Quicksilver FX just to name a few.
That hood is sick! That should not be too difficult to repair and easily looks good enough to leave as a carbon finish. If that were my car, I would paint it the stock silver, but get it wrapped in red. Others were suggesting a deep metallic red and I agree.
I think that if you paint the hood leaving some carbon fiber stripes exposed it should look awesome.
Please leave it stock color with a pearl or mettalic in it and if you want to change the color you can Wrap it afterwards. That way it stays kinda oem with door jams and hatch silver.
Mercedes has a colour that’s selenite grey metallic. With black accents, it’s aggressive as hell and would look amazing on this Supra build. Especially with an exposed carbon hood.
Atta boy look at that beautiful clean engine bay. How does it feel now? 😂
Love the look, can’t wait to see the progress on this build !
Oh look another wide body build. Super original Chris super original dude.
I think the orange they used on the Toyota 86 with the carbon peices would look incredible
Loved the (intentional?) FnF reference at 3:43. Pretty sure they were not overnight!
Color idea for you Chris. Make it a dark emerald green. It would look amazing with the hood and side skirts.
If the hood scratch can be fixed, I personally love the look of carbon in the vents and the rest painted!
I know that you have 3D printed small body parts before, but have you considered getting an oversized 3D printer like a Voron 2.4 and 3D printing entire fenders in 1 or 2 pieces? You can get Voron printer kits in half meter cubed print volume, and I'm fairly sure people have built them even bigger.
And the Voron is monsterously fast for a 3D printer without being ridiculously expensive.

Glad to see it's getting stock quarter panels. I think this is going to turn out great!
I like where this supra build is going you got my attention 😯👏🏻
Irish green pearl, for a paint color idea, I personally fell in love with the color once I bought my 2003 Audi A6 basically a 2 tone color, at times it's a nice dark metallic Green or a metallic black depending on lighting ect, you should definitely give it a chance, I also think it would go good with a exposed carbon fiber hood
Man this takes me back to you working on BRZs in your backyard. Just episode long drilling out spotwelds 😜 Love it!
For the colour i would take blue pearl metallic. Its a stock Supra mk4 colour (later models 1997/1998) and it looks awsome! The paint code is: 8L5

I know it would be a bit ironic, but I have always liked British Racing Green as a really nice car color that I think gets overlooked a lot simply because of its name. I think it would be a great color for the Supra!
I trust that with your talent and of your crew, that Supra will be awesome! God bless
Good choices so far with this car!! Thank you for cleaning the engine bay, that was almost unsubscribed worthy 😂
i am surprised you aren't wrapping it. but then again the carbon fibre look on bonnets is awesome and it probably wont look as standard...
9:20 Happy Catfish front bumper!
I have always said that if I ever owned a Supra, I'd paint it or wrap it a deep candy apple red with mid-tone gunmetal grey accents for vents/venting and have at least 2-3" deep dish rims.
Dude, keep it as close to stock as possible, that whole wide body thing is so overdone, too many people are doing it and it would ruin the value of the car.

That's just what this dude does, ruin cars.
Who said that he wants to sell it
100% agree
not your car not your call to make dude
The front bumper and side skirts are most likely from Shine Auto, their fitment is spot on
I recommend Forest green for the color
It’s a stock color btw
You should do Deep Jewel Green Metallic. It’s a factory Supra color but I think it was only on the 1997 model and is pretty rare. Would look great with some CF and maybe Bronze wheels!
Loving the idea of the stock look. Color idea: Medium turquoise metallic clear coat. Super cool color only available for the first year of the mkiv.
A man that reads the comments and delivers a sexy wash sequence.
So glad your keeping this car stockish, not a fan of the garish wide body stuff that is going around. Thats my choice, not saying it has to be yours for me to watch. My mantra will always be" Your money, your time, your choice". Looking good so far.

I would love to see you paint the Supra imperial jade mica. I think the color code is 6q7 from Toyota. If I’m not mistaken, that color is the rarest on supras and was only used on turbo models in 1998.
I can't tell that and deep jewel green apart, but I fan boi'ed so hard one day when I saw one driving by while in my anthracite Supra 🤣🤣
It’s by far my favorite color
good morning 2 yall 2. 1st youtube video of the day and im happy
That sideskirt is amazing.
CHRIS!! HEY!! I LOVE THE CHANNEL AND HAVE BEEN HERE SINCE THE WIDE-BODY BRZ/FRS BUILD! YOU SHOULD LOOK INTO THE COLOR MILLENNIUM JADE FOR THE SUPRA!!!
Awesome! How about a fast furious colour? Gold goes well with carbon fiber!
B judging by the ridox kit you have. The white pieces with orange insides are from g.r.a.m.s.. I do not recommend using g.r.a.m.s since their quality is super terrible, but all the black pieces are from shine auto. Closest, affordable, clean almost perfect fitment as the authentic ridox aero.

I’m sure they are still available since I also had another buddy of mines who has ordered one very recent.

You said that the carbon fiber looks good on a darker color. Go with a dark grey. Take a look at the Hyundai Thunder Grey (Color Code YG7). Super nice grey with LOADS of metal flake. I run a Seibon CF Hood on my 2020 Veloster Turbo in the Thunder Grey and I always get compliments on it.
Think a dark green or a matt black would look good with CF hood. And that front wheel (odd one on the set) does look really nice on it.
MotionAutoTV did a rear quarter replacement on a supra and a full restoration. I would totally get with him and get some pointers and tips for most knowledge going into it
Paint it back OE. 2 tone it with a wrap to jump from silver in the front to black in the rear with carbon finished wheels.
You can just mark the molding with white marker at the molding and the body panel. Same like changing the belting.
The original colour looks good, this car just needs some coil overs and a good exhaust 🤷🏼♂️ I suggest spraying the hood body colour top and bottom and fix with filler, with what u have right now there isn’t much u need to do to revive this beast
you should use the rear quarter panel of the TRD wide body it will cover that easy and still looking stock.
In the early-mid 90s, before I got my license, Trust/Greddy had a Supra in a dark green, similar to RE Amemiya green slash British Racing green.
Can’t find the magazine nor pics anymore. It was #1 awesome imo tho! ✨✨
