It fits with quite some work involved. Not just sanding, but adjusting the body kit to fit.

unsure yet on reproduction costs, i know my kit is costing me 1500.00 canadian, but that includes having to fit the neon kit to a daewoo, when mine is complete i will post pics and ask him how much to reproduce the kits

see my new topic post for information on the geforcecustoms kit, i found a supplier of it cheap in canada

well everyone, good news I went today aqnd got a picture of it,

but bad news aswell, Keeping costs down and making the bumper even stronger hes decided rather then making a full mold to actually make a partial mold of my stock bumper and add it to the top of this one allowing it to bolt into stock holes etc and be strong, only disadvantage is that i wont be able to reproduce it, therefor being one of a kind, sorry everyone got your hopes up a bit, decent news in the other topic about geforcekits cheap if your interested in them,

O and one last thing, ive decided to sell my r34 rear for the 2nd gen neon, im going custom one of a kid rear using an oldmobile alero front bumper, ( the bottom portion) adding it to the mold of my rear and voila

thatll be a bit longer tho,. heres a pic of the front in progress

so far the mold of my stock bumper(blue) has been fiberglassed to the old kit, after cutting a bit here and there, and is ready to start filling in the wholes and sanding before primer paint etc,

( give me a day or so the cellphone hasnt quite sent it to the email so ill have it posted ASAP)[/img]

Hi, my name's JonnyReb from Ghetto Customs.
I am the one building the kit.

Ready for a little putty, final sanding and paint.

WooHoo - I just happen to have an EVO3 front from a Neon sitting here.
Can be fit to a Lanos - no problem.

If there is enough interest - when Dave gets his kit on, maybe I could borrow his stock bumpers to make molds to create custom fronts for the Woos of the world.

I could tell ya but then id have to kill ya LOL, jk, ill let him explain it, but bascally he made a mold of the upper part of my stock bumper, to line up in the original holes etc, then fiberglassed it to the adapted portion of the R34 kit, in this case the width of the neon and Woo happen to be almost perfect so he didnt have to trim down the middle of the 0bumper at all , then he attached the mold of the top portion of mine to the bottom of the R34 kit fiberglass, resin etc, then attached it etc etc,

am i close john? lol i think im close
