Looking For Castors/Part Builders
Im looking for some parts like a Spoon spoiler and Spoon front lip to fit a 1:24 Hasegawa Honda Civic eg6.
I cant find them to buy and Ive found out people make their own, Im just staring out so I dont know how to make them. Can someone that is able to create a Spoon spoiler or Spoon Front lip or both please help me and I will buy them from you. Please Last edited by drunken monkey; 09-06-2010 at 12:43 PM.

Re: Looking For Castors/Part Builders
For as much work as it is to cut off the spoiler molded into the body on the kit, and replace it with one that someone else made, you'd be better of making your own. It's really not very difficult, and if you've seen people make their own, you've got a good idea how. Try it, it's just plastic.

Re: Looking For Castors/Part Builders
if you dont have enough experience why dont you build just OOB civic to learn painting and building techniques? you can create hyper tuned car but if it wont have beautiful finish all work is down. you will be happy even with OOB trust me

If you're serious about building a spoon civic keep a look out on ebay. Fujimi made one a few years back but they're long out of production, you might get lucky and find one.

Re: Looking For Castors/Part Builders
I would try to do it yourself. But if you have no experience or very little in modeling i suggest building a few kits first before you tackle a serious one that involves scratch building. 2 part epoxy putty like milliput or tamiya are the best way to go as you can mold them and shape them. They also give you a long time where you can handle them before they cure unlike regular putties.
This is the only wing i know of, but its for a revell civic. Different year. http://www.freewebs.com/tunedbytwent...scatalogue.htm |
