i was also thinking of doing it purple.

thanks lads!
erm man hours, i would not even attempt to guess
it's been going for about 2 years i think, so yea you can imagine.
i just kept changing my mind on the ideas and designs.

i've got the rest of the night off! so i can get down to working on it some more....

i dont think it should have decals, im looking for a smooth clean wide cool look.

so maybe all kandy red.
or stick the flip paint i have blue to green to pruple.

updates for you later!

I think a nice, clean kandy red would be perfect for this project. Anything fancy will take away from the body work.

Nice Job! Looks like a pain in the butt to sand and get the bondo right. Cars are hard as it is, rc cars must be insane.

oh god!
all my posts seem to just get worse each time
but don't worry it's all for a good purpose!
anyway
got a little update:
i ripped one of the arches off, and started from scratch.
now, it's perfectly in place, but needs to be fibreglassed as theres a big gap in it now :shock:
also, ive been to the university open day....was definately what i was hoping for, and this xmod, is going to play a huge part in me getting in through my portfolio work.
anyway, here it is at the moment.

im definately having the skyline rear bumber aswell, the civic ones are just not quite special enough.








since these pics, i have shaved the arches more to make it round, and i'm about to start on the fibreglassing and filling of them.
