Looks like someone molded in the spoiler? Hope there is no damage under there. No rust through on the rear valance I guess...just surface rust?

Also, show us some pictures of your car when you get a chance.

lucyblu,

Talked to you last week. Glad you found this site and that tailpanel. Was that a craigslist find? Like I mentioned, there are a lot of great people here that are very knowledgable on these cars.

For what it's worth, I just shipped a Supra from NH to CA for $997. Shipping seems to be pretty reasonable these days.

How do you do a national craiglist search? I've tried but it only picks up local areas.
