Hello, 
I am Eric van Hamme, I have a business in Belgium that does all kinds of special bodywork construction. 
I have already designed and built many special cars of my own, but now the challenge was to build a kind of Supercar so I was looking for a car with a mid engine. 
The perfect car was a Toyota MR2 SW 20 I found for €1000. 
The MR2 is a very fun car to drive and has a very good mechanical setup.
So I designed a full body that fits over the standard MR2 which was my original intention. 
Many details have been changed on the body such as the frunk lid and engine hood which are one whole piece and there is a part in the trunk lid that can be opened separately to make it easier to access the engine.
I also replaced the side windows with air intakes that extend above the engine section which provides extra cooling but also a completely different look, I also replaced the standard rear lights with round Hella lights as these are easy to put together yourself and are also an E feature for European roads. 
The side lines of the body are higher than original so that the side windows appear lower and the roof also appears lower, the doors are about 6 cm higher than original and in the sides behind the doors I have provided an air inlet larger than the original which will be further finished in later stages and will also run further inwards.
The frunk hood has also been adjusted, it has an air intake that is connected to the front radiator, which will also be further adjusted.
The car does have  KW suspension coil overs but this is not lower than the original as I made the bodywork optically lower because the car has better clearance at the original height. 
The car is also equipped with an engine change, the 2GR 3.5 V6 which is controlled by an ECU master and there is also a 7" digital screen from ECU master ADU in the dashboard
I once made chairs myself for another project so I have the mould so I used them for this mr2 project and they are painted in the body colour with an Alcantara finish. 
The brake callipers are from Brembo which I bought second hand and had overhauled, the brake discs are 320mm but also two-piece. 
The body is therefore built to be mounted multiple times on the MR2 chassis and can be purchased (my website link button is below)
I only install the kit myself because it is quite complicated to assemble and I want to avoid problems for customers. 
The rims are custom built and also two-piece 8.5x20 -15 at the front and 11X20 -15 at the back with TYRES: REAR 305/25/20 and FRONT 235/30/20 
I put the front lights together myself which are from Hella with high and low beam and the mirrors are from an Audi TT which I have adjusted the mount to the custom doors.
