Progress: AMT Bomex Supra

This isn't going to happen fast, because school starts in 2 weeks

While AMT hit some details on this kit pretty nicely, the front bumper doesn't live up to the real deal Bomex.

This is my first time doing major body mods, so feel free to criticize along the way...



So far I glued on styrene sheets to make the basic bone structure. The bottom lip still has to be trimmed and shaped better. Top is almost done.

Re: Progress: AMT Bomex Supra

Looks cool so far. Are you making the movie car, or just that bodykit? Please, no rice sir. Keep up the awsome progress.

Re: Progress: AMT Bomex Supra

lol! Don't worry, I'm just making the body kit. The paint is going to be black and it's going to have a huge single turbo I'm thinking of going wingless too

Re: Progress: AMT Bomex Supra

Wingless is a good idea since the wing that come with the kit is terrible.
