In an older post I said that I wanted some time to merge an Evo to a Civic and I had a great opportunity.I was asked to do the above and with all the expenses paid!!!What can you tell...What was the wild part???I had 4 days...So this project will be propably a very difficult one.
Both kits were bought yesterday and now most bits are painted and I'm doing the last finishing touches to the body work...
Tommorow the body will be painted and the chassis will be complete...
Enough for the words here are the pics...

The Evo vent in the bonnet was a living hell to come out right but it's so smooth now that If the kit wasn't OOP I'd make some resin copies for other projects...And the wing looks awesome and fits great....
I know it's the regular JDM style but wait for the finished result...It won't be a riced car just a black thunder...
More pics soon...I'm out to start painting cause only 2 days left!!!

I know :icon16:, I've drawn lines on the hood to have a symetric & right position of the air intake.
Cool project dude. :bigthumb:

Sorry if this a repeated question around here, but I couldn't find it in the FAQ section..So, how do you make those resin copies you talk about?

LoL
I had no idea that it was already one although I was talking about making resin copies to use for my projects not selling...Thanks a lot for the info though!!!!:smile:
About the resin copies there are different methods of creating molds ragarding the part you wan't to copy....I think Chris(flyonthewall) can say much more about that than I can!!!!
Now on the Civic I'll post more progress later today...Not any other kind of body mods except some cutting on the front bumper...Since it's not for me I can't choose what mods I should do...However I think that with a widebody it might become a bit over the edge...
Thanks for your replys!!!!!!!
