Fun fact: when Vegeta reads the scanner in Japanese he really says over 8000
in the English dub they messed up and said 9000... now you know!

Wow, this is actually turning out much nicer than I had originally thought.

How do you plan on molding around the gas filler door?

Keep up the nice work!

Thanks
the original filler door is already out my plan is to make my own, I had already cut out the new door but if you remember it was windy last week. Well the filler door fell off my trunk and split in two so right now it's a big hole
Hahaha it was so funny! I was bored at home and I decided to type in (bad Honda body kit) and I couldn't stop laughing when I saw my car. No hard feelings but the reason I didn't put it on a forum at that time. I thought it would be hard for people to see the concept. And the car looked like sh!t!

hahaha yeah im going through with it well
yesterday was a bust!!!! the ass holes at west coast custom didn't want to even think about trying to help me out. and its wasn't because of the car either. i just walked in i had to wait for some mike to get off lunch that was nothing but they sent some random guy who the entire time was saying uuuuh yeah we can't do that uuuh i don't understand what you want. finally he said they get there exhausts from gibson. i went there and the guy there was a bigger idiot the gibson guy gave me a number to call and that was another dead end but wile i was there i was able to see will i am's custom delorean. Nice car but, will i am did the same thing im doing to my car. so thumbs up for being different.

so i made a fiberglass mold to connect a round air intake hose to a rectangle hole BUT!!! it goes right into the frame of the car....... and im starting some plans to make fold away mirrors. if i had the option i would shave my mirrors off and i love how nissan put the mirrors on the front fender like the older skylines but im not sure how it would look yet. im just trying to come up with an ideal that would look good with the mirror up and with it down
