so i am making my own body kit

[sheepdizildawg]

some of you know, i have been talking about re painting my car, well i think i am going to be starting here pretty soon.
I can not find a body kit for my car at a decent price, so i say, make one.
I have found a lot of helpful tutorials on how to do it.
I drew out a sketch today. tell me what you think. I suck at drawing so yeah.

is it just me .. coz i can't see the sketch

[Rodd1s]

i can see it... i think you're on to something good there.

are you gonna be doing all the fibreglassing yourself? get some good practice before you start doin it for real.

[sheepdizildawg]

yeah. i am doing everything, my scanner wasn't that great, so i had to tweak some adjustments to make it visible. my bad, yeah i know some stuff about fiberglass. i was in the process of fiber-glassing my trunk, but i pulled it all out, because i just decided to buy a sub box and stuff.

the front looks weird... i thought it was the rear bumper at first

it would look better as a rear bar IMHO lol with centre exit exhausts
for the front bar try and modify the original... i think it still needs a "mouth"

[sheepdizildawg]

yeah my friends thought it was the rear too. the two circles are my fog lights. I was actually re drawing it today, the rear, and i re did it with a center exhaust, kind of like a Porche. anyone know of a good looking front bumper?? that isnt to busy to the eyes?? looking to make something simple.

lol not to rain on your parade but there is no way you can build all that in a week and it be quality, fiberglass has a cure time and you have to layer it, sanding....so much more involved....but good look.

[sheepdizildawg]

didnt mean to say build it in my car. ment my garage. the whole process will take a long while. i know. i ment getting it all on the car will take about a week
