Arrow Custom Rsx Body
Hey guys I just started working on a semi-wide rsx last week.. I already have an rsx but I bought a body from my source cc and started on it right away. So far Ive almost completed the front bumper and side moldings ect. But I'm still working on the rear.. I dont have any pics right now but I'll post some up later on tonight... Let me know what colours you think would be nice.. Anyways, thats it for now, I'll post pics as soon as I can...
See ya later,

[IMG][/IMG]

Heres the front bumper that I've been working on,..I think its pretty good so far

[IMG][/IMG]

I've started on a hood scoop and I have to fix a bit because the car got a chunk taken out of the side But I started on the rear fender flares too.
Thats it for now,.. I'll update in a day or two because I have to work tomorrow so I probably wont have time to work on it too much..anyways..

Let me know what you think-

Small update: So far I've basically completed the front bumper and hood scoop, just a few touch ups on the front bumper and it will be ready to paint, hood scoop it almost done now just need to wet sand it now.. I started on the front fenders and I'm in the process of shaping them.. Thats it, oh and heres a pic of the hood scoop covered in putty, believe me it looks a lot better nowAnd for the front bumper I dont have any pics of it yet but I will post some up after.

Anyways thats it for now, I'll try to update soon..

LIke shine it up or something? Oh and Im like 95 % done the hood and front bumper (sanding and stuff)... Anyways, I'll update tonight or tomorrow for sure
