Swapping parts is one thing, but your meticulous focus on detail is what makes your work special, and why I always enjoy your videos.
Agreed!
Oh my gosh, thank you very much! :))
Facts
I have been a mechanic for 49 years , I always like your channel ,
when I was your age , I would also change out parts to make the
car different . But now that I am older , I know the extensive work
involved in those projects, and I would now prefer to choose the
vehicle I like , and leave it factory stock.
I can absolutely see the value in that, too! My Mk5 Supra is mostly stock aside from a couple small things, and I love appreciating it as it is, from the factory! Thank you so much for watching:))
Your attention to detail is incredible but you know the best part is when you finally show the car and some Toyota geek will stare at the rear and "KNOW" there is something "DIFFERENT" but won't be able to figure out what it is until you tell/show them. 😁 Love seeing the updates! 👍
This is Faye with her mad fabrication skills. Next Level
"Her"😂
I'm so impressed by what you did with the trim under the license plate😮👌👌👌. Okay the end!!!! It looks SO GOOOOD!!!!
THANK YOU JENNIFER!!!! It was SUCH a challenge! Like the world's hardest art project haha!! But I am so happy with the results! Thank you for the kind words :)))
Awesome job, Faye, came out looking SWEET!!
Love the number plate too🤣🤣👍🇦🇺
Thanks so much 😊 !!!
It’s amazing to know that there is someone like you who cares about cars so much 😊
I like listening to you and watching your work, you have a very therapeutic voice 😊
Faye!!!! It's great to have you back my friend!. Wow you've had quite a journey!, you've come a long way. From your little pink garage to know wow!. I'm so happy to have been able to see and be part of your journey and regardless of where it may take you I'm sure I speak for everyone else when I say that we'll be right here watching and enjoying your videos. Thank you for being!!!!.
OH MY GOODNESS THANK YOU!!!!!😃 I appreciate that so much! I still do have my little home garage 😅 and I'm just a renter at this new place but I love it so much and I'm so happy! Thank you for the kind words times a million!!
Nicely done Faye. Your knowing is the key. Professionals do things right to make it "seem" as if it was "from the factory". The folks who "know" know. 100%. You killed it !!!
Yes ma'am you made that look easy, and your dedication to your work is excellent, the best to you and your husband, God bless.
Thank you so much!
I found myself with the SAME problem on my 1987 Turbo targa back around 2009 lol.... I ended up "peeling" the pre-89 trim off of the backing (JUST the super thin, flexible veneer, i used a heat gun to remove it) and the double sided-taped it to the 89+ trim. It looked surprisingly good, and lasted for another five years until I sold the car.
Can't even tell the DIY hack,Faye! Don't you just love it when you hit a bump, figure out a solution with a "point of no return" deal, and it all works out? Well done!
I admire your hard work and dedication Faye! And It's contagious! Can't wait to get working on my car soon! Great work as always!
This video is nothing short of stellar. I love my cars 100% stock but I have to admit that since the trim was reused from a 1987 you did the best job to incorporate the new tailight design with the older model's trim. Awesome! 🥰 I do have to ask because you've played that background song/music in a past short and i'm dieing to find out who it is?? It's so catchy and addictive! Song and title would be much appreciated.
Yes, I LOVE IT! It is "On my mind" by Dazeychain and THANK YOU!!!!
@@FayeHadley That song fits your style and videos PERFECTLY!! Usually I HATE music in a CZcams video period but yours blends perfectly only to certain segments and it's NOT played too loud. I'm downloading that song now. Thanks.
Yes! coffee and my fav youtuber perfect friday
Awww yay! Thank you!
Turned out great! All the hard work will make you appreciate your car more when it’s done
I think you're spot on! Thank you!
You are turning into a regular Chip Foose! Looks great!
I wish! Haha thank you!
Listen this girl boys!!!! She's the best out there!!!!!!!!!
This looks amazing! I think i held my breath the whole time knowing how fragile those plastic pieces are. Great job!
Yes, you know it first hand!!!! Thank you!!! Will I see you at SIV this year?!!😃
@@FayeHadley I don't know if we will make it this year with SIV being in September 😭.
Not an ounce a "car guy," but you make all of this fascinating! And your excitement is killer, I'm stoked that this turned out so sick for you!
Oh my gosh thank you!!! :))
14:57 It came out amazing Faye, i love your channel... cheers from Chile!
Thank you !!!!😃
Looks fantastic. I love 303 products. They just work. For adhesive on trim, 3M makes a very very strong adhesive meant for badges and such. My RX300 didn't have any of the badges on the back when I got it, so I bought some on ebay for $12 and bought some of that adhesive. It all went super smooth, except for the main Lexus badge... somehow I smeared some of the adhesive inside of the logo on the body paint... I have no idea how to clean it up. I'm not worried about it though. It is great adhesive though. It will make anything stick. It's really thick and clear and acts a lot like honey. Love this supra project! Makes me miss my 89. Such a fun car.
Looks amazing. I'm sure once the Supra is all done, it'll be showcased in front cover of automotive magazines. 👀
Godspeed Faye ❤
Faye, you are incredible. Your cheery disposition cheers everyone up! Thank you for these amazing videos, you Rock girl!! !NYC.
Awww thank you!!!!
Your skill is awsome as your attitude is off the charts. Well done!!!
Awww thank you 🥹🙏🏻
Took 4 days but it was worth it it came out great Faye 👍🏽 God bless always keep up the great work can't wait to see it driving 👍🏽❤️🇵🇷🇺🇸
Thank you so much 🤗
that looks amazing, your dedication and care is so admirable and I really like how new everything looked after you cleaned and polished them
Looks fantastic 🤩 You're truly amazing and a total inspiration, the car is coming together and looking soooo gooooddd, keep kicking ass 🔥😊🤟
These are my favourite kind of videos. I just love to watch other people pull on threads and see the thought process behind how they approach the problem then execute the job. It is so fascinating to watch. And so reassuring and encouraging to see someone follow through rather than give up and take an easier route if/when it all unravels. Just the right kind of inspiration. Hard to do but so worth the effort, and it looks soooo gooood. Fantastic.
Wow, beautiful work - looks amazing.
This video helped me so much. I thought I was the only one spending four days with these things :-D.
AWWWW 🥰 no you're not alone! You're just as OCD as me haha! Welcome to the club!!
Loved this, so satisfying from start to detailed finish 😍 amazing little video, stay safe, keep being amazing and keep wrenching 🤙
i always love to see new vids from Faye! you've inspired me to get back on my project. thank you Faye! (and please keep up the good work - we need you out here!)
Awww oh my gosh! I'm so glad! Keep it up, and I will too! Thanks for the encouragement!🙏🏻🥹
That looks so good!!!! Worth it 👍👍
always so infornative i like that about faye
I gotta say Faye, the rear end turned out mint with that trim restoration.
Funny, I've wanted to do this conversion on my MA70. The price of finding a matching set of lights & garnish and now your video has made me decide not to do it... I do love those taillights though
Looks amazing 🤩
that looks soooooooo good. i didn't spend the 4 days, but it HAS to be worth it.
Looking back on it, I'm SOOOOO glad I did it! And I'm so glad I didn't know what a struggle it would be 😆
Hi Faya you did such a good job on the trim. It Looks Great!!! Thank you on showing us how much time and hard work it takes to do a job like that.
Looks great ! It was well worth your time and effort to do your custom touch to your ride.
Faye super excited to see how it looks great job!!! Worth every second of your hard work go girl power !!!
Thank you so much!! 🙏🏻😃
Nicely done Faye 👍😁
I have to say I have been using 303 products on my kayak for at least 10 years and my plastic kayak looks as good today as it did when i bought it in 1996 . That stuff is fantastic for any plastic parts and our cars are becoming more and more plastic
That looks so good! Customizing cars is a lot of thinking, talking, doing and redoing. You knocked it out of the park! Loved Brandon's instant NO at the idea of swapping taillights. Custom plate for the win! Fun informative video once again.
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.✌️
You do great work faye
You are a true enthusiast. The details matter.
Love it! Makes me feel very lucky my 87 still has all its trim ❤
Im a guy posting and you do an amazing job teaching and i learned a lot of tips from you. Thanks.. I decided to subscribe after watching many of your vids. All i have to say is wow good job with your work and it's done right. It takes time to do it right, but its worth it. Also i learned a lot of tips from you thanks. Keep doing your vids.
Great video, Faye. Your passion for excellence in your work is inspiring. I also share your appreciation for 303 products. They really do work. Lastly, I almost thought that there wouldn't be any chicken video; but alas, you came through. Keep up the great work.
Happy friday Faye!
Another great video,
You look so good with your hair down Faye! 😊
that looks absolutely amazing well worth the hard work you’re rite
Thank you very much!😃
It's nice to have an Emotional Support Human to encourage you along the way. 🙂
That is going to be one sweet ride when you finish it Faye I can't wait to see the finished product! In the future I want to see you build an old Toyota Landcruiser one of the old 70's models that looked a lot like Jeeps. Keep that in mind for any future content that would also be a sweet build and would love to see what you come up with on an off road beauty as the old off road legends like those:P
I love the hoodie! David will be proud!
This is incredible!!!! I think you're the first to accomplish this or atleast that I've seen
Awww thank you, Sunny!!!😀❤️
Faye!! You are a genius!! 😱
Girls can be cool too guys. Love me some Faye!
I wish I could find someone like you are a great friend 👍
Hey Faye !!
You Rock !! I love the salvage hunting at the "wrecking yards....... .
Its my Disneyland !
Now back to the idea of trim replace and repair. Sometimes clips and tabs are broken.
I use Dow Corning 732 Silicone in the caulk tube. It can build up hollow areas behind trim. It's one tuff industrial goo.
I know you were working in Portland Oregon for awhile...stop by and look us up. I got my Automotive Degree at Clark College in Vancouver Wa.
And now have been working as a industrial mechanic for many years.
My best lesson learned was,.. know how to improvise items at hand to get the job done.
You are a inspiration for young people to become involved in a Honorable Profession that is rewarding and brings home the "Bacon' !!
Thank you for sharing!
Looks perfect 👌 I need a MK3 again.
Yes you do!!!
It safe to say that Faye is a national treasure!
Faye , from one Libra to another I can totally relate to the talking it out thing . Problem I always have is I go back and forth in my mind so much on making a decision. Trying to plan for every contingency. As I’ve gotten older , I’ve gotten better about just going for it sometimes. Great video , Supra is looking sexy!!!!
Well done. I love customizing cars with factory parts that make a car look stock but only enthusiasts would notice.
that first song sounded like Joseph nice choice
This is how i am in the shop! Spend 24 7 building cars,bikes, just whatever. An everyone is like you said it would take 2 hours. Its been 3 days. I love to build an create! I see that in your work! Your a car nut like i am.
Terrific job Faye using 303 car trim cleaner on ur 5 generation Toyota Supra.
You make it look easy and great video
Nice work!
Thanks for the video. Great to see you back to work on the Supra. We are working on my son's over here.
That headlight is awesome, do you have an affiliate link to where you got it?
Honestly it looks really good but not willing to go thru the pain of having todo all the work on that. I rather just keep mine period correct at least unless they make a kit like yours that can snap together, But if anybody can do it was you Great Job!
Hey Faye!!! Good to see you posting again!! From the Honda fan-boy. Just ask a Picies, we're always right.😂😂🐠🐠
Faye nice work!
Thank you!!!!!🙏🏻🥹
Hahaha TRUE MODDING! Great work as always.
Your trim is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
A great little fix.
Beautiful!
Hello Miss Faye, you are still the best person I've ever seen the operating system ❤🇮🇱🇺🇲👍🙏
I can’t wait to see more on this car. They were The Toyota car of my generation.
Great video Faye. It sounds like you have a lot of patience and steady hands to work with the older plastic parts. I've had my fair share of those type of parts break on me. I bet there are some people out there that could 3D print some of those trims parts. The license plate holder area may be a big of challenge as you would need much bigger 3D printer, but it could be done. =)
Yay for Faye!
One of my obsessions with my stock 2020 WRX base model is to make it LOOK like the top trim level. I love the way the top trims look but really don't like the extra electronics and price tag that comes with them. I hate keyless systems and power seats that break down.
Hi Faye can you please put out a longer video on the taillight conversion you did, I have the stuff to convert mine to led but I've been afraid to take the lens apart, I saw the short you put out but wanted to see a more detailed explanation PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
That looks amazing
Thank you!!!😃
The back end looks great 😉. On the car Faye 😁
It’s the small details that make the build. Subtle and sometimes one cannot even tell exactly what you say “ daaaamn nice looking car”. I agree it’s best not to know the time/effort equation before diving in. Nice job.
Love the A70's. Imagine working your way upto the dream....... Turbo A or JZA70. I'd pick the JZA70
Love putting the series 2 stuff on S1 cars, I did the same.... but on a z20 soarer (Look them up, see how much they share from an a70 from body to wiring, mega cool)
i love your videos!!!! 😊
This is therapy I swear..non car people will never understand.
Like I said a few videos ago, I tried to open up my taillights and they were way too brittle. I love my 83 280zx taillights. Perfectly 80s.
Happy Valentine's day to my fav mechanic this posted five days before feb 14 ❤ u .
Great Job!!! 👍🏽👍🏽😉
Hi fay . Ray from wv. I like you a lot thank you for your vidios I have been watching for at least a year
Thanks for watching! :))
Thank you for your videos my God daughter watch one of you videos and has been the shop helping me with the rebuild on my 2002 ram that she don't know yet but will be hers after we finish.
Going back, would you do it again or weld it flat and paint it matching?
Well done👏👏👏👏👏
I have a 88 model with the original molding trims but 89+ tail lights..seems like a lot of careful work to get that center garnish trim to match, I’ll just leave mine alone even though it’s ugly lol
