You're going to have one of the sickest cars on this board once it's done!

Appreciate on the comments guys!

Here's another shot of the rear there's still a lot of work to do and some adjustments to be made but this is a somewhat layed frame of how the rear will be made up before it is filled with plastic then glassed.

im taking a trip over tommorow so ill snag some more pix and give you a better idea of how it will all look .

thanks guys , The shop from my experience so far and what I've seen come from them they do phenomenal work.


Btw I need some opinions on the rear from everyone. As its laid out now the flare holds it's width all the way down to the end of the bumper. I'm going tomorrow to check it out like I said but I was thinking of having it taper into the body towards the bottom of the bumper more like the oem bumpers do this way it shows more tire in the rear. However the body guy did say that if it taper's in he fears the rear will look less wider then the front and it wont look as good. As it is laid out now what do you guys think?

Might help you to decide. Just a quick photoshop of taper.



I say taper it nice and smooth to show off those enormous tyres. Covering them like the kit above just gives it a fat arse...

Definitely taper it, or else it's going to look bloated and boxy. Plus, IMO, it should match the quarter panel in front of the rear wheel.
