Wow well my front fenders are about a year old already and I have atleast 12 or 15,000 miles on them. just two days ago when I was showing a friend my car. I was sitting on the front left fender. im around 180lb

 

i know i had said i was going to make the deck spoiler a separate part but decided to later make a mold of trunk

 

here are some pics from today

 

well i have to knew ideas for the rear.
the first one i think makes the car look a little DUB and im not going for that look



the previous bumper i thought looked rice and im trying to go for a more stock looking car is this still rice?

 

Props for creativity and balls. That said the whole thing is a little over the top, which some might say is rice, but I like the new rear better.

 

First off PROPS!!!I would say if you want a "stock rice" look then you shouldn't have touched the body. \ really hope you haven't destroyed your car, but in the immortal words of Sheryl Crow." If it makes you happy it can't be that bad." Keep up the work and post more please:D

 

thanks! im still mixing ideas for the rear hahaha yeah i think the stock body is mostly trash. no stock bumpers, front fenders and headlights are copped up, and gas filler door is trash and bondo on doors and rear quarter.
by the way im not sure if you guys were able to notice but

can anyone guess what car my projector headlights are off of???

 

I think the rear no longer matches the front of the car....there is simply too large of a visual transition when viewing the car from the side profile. I think part of the reason is because the front of the car looks so long and the rear looks so short...maybe the spoiler should extend back rather than extending upwards off the trunk? This would give the illusion of a longer rear end.

Also, the recessed lines in the doors should be filled...they look out of place now that the front and rear fenders are so built up.

 

i can always make a spoiler that extends out rather than up i've seen it on some stock cars i can't remember but i was going to add a fender flare on each tire. so does it look with the rear fender?

 

here is the build on my retro projector lights
here the back of my assembly stock


i have to cut much of the inside out including the head light, the side marker, and the back of the light assembly


the challenger light get the same treatment



after everything is cut i then attach both housings together by melting the edges of the plastic.



I then fiberglass the last hole shut.



Removing the side marker exposes the projector but my fender covers it



The finished product

 

I saw this new Accord yesterday in the parking lot at Kragen while recycling my used motor oil... It's bad... Also, I believe that was styrofoam, not molding foam.

 

Some angles look good but this pic just kills it for me.


Having said that...any updates???

 

well im not gonna lie i agree the front looks really long but this is still my work car. i just want to finish it already. i have my impala im putting money into also. i'll start the new rear bumper tomorrow, i will update tomorrow night.

the new plan

 

ok so i f&@#ed up on the rear bumper. i have to redo it. i will do so by buying an aftermarket and building it on the side. the bright side is i can now make it smaller and flow with the body as best i can. if anyone has a stock rear bumper to sell you know where to find me

not sure if you can see it in the picture but the left and right side are not symmetrical.

 

i rapped the foam in fiberglass yesterday and painted it. im going to leave the rear bumper alone until i get the new one in.

 

Given your GT-Rish body lines, I think it will look a lot better once you sand it and paint it black. Currently it looks like it's still being built which .. makes sense :)

 

God! it's like... terrible!

 

Trust me it's been a lot worse but I agree.

 

Amazing what you can do with superglue and foam

 

Ok so I've searched and searched then searched again if price is not an issue
