Not everyone's cup of tea, but just swapped over for an OEM reverse camera spoiler + ECU to complete the conversion. Need to wire into the headunit now & good to go. Considering ditching the Toyota trunk emblem to avoid clutter.

I'll make a thread about it at some point but I'm still working on the extra feature integration. So far all it does is auto-dim, homelink, and compass.
Thats awesome. Damn another thing I want to do to my SC, heh. IN for DIY!

Yesterday, picked up a Supra turbo front brake shim kit for the ole' girl. Hopefully this will help with the squeaking and shifting-pad clunk when breaking hard and reversing.....

Funny thing about that, i ended up doing just 2-3 light coats and ya gotta make sure you spray super evenly. But that was after i had to strip the paint off from using too much paint and spraying unevenly.
