hummer h2 suv to sut

i just picked up a 1:18 scale Maisto HUMMER H2 SUV PLAYERZ. The quality isnt to great in the interior and the speaker box in the trunk is unrealistic.

so of course, when i got home from the store where i bought it, i took it apart and started on modding it. While i was checking it out, i got a really cool idea! Why not make it an SUT instead of an SUV??
i've already made lambo doors for it and i'm going to do the following::
-Replace Rims with these::

-Paint different color(any suggestions??)
-Repaint interior to match exterior
-Lambo Doors(almost done)
-SUV to SUT(IN PROGRESS)
-Tonneau cover where the speaker box used to be
Progress so far::

1. they didn't have any
2. i didn't think i wanted one until i saw that i could do it
myself
3. i like doing the work, it's good expierence and fun

Thats pretty cool. How are u going to cover thr trunk? The rims that come with the car are to big for my taste =/ wire rims arent exactly my thing either, but i think it'll look ok. =)

not sure yet as far as the cover goes, i may make it out of metal and paint it the same color as the truck or a leather cover would look cool too

just an idea: but i think you should consider doing the back of the hummer like this http://www.hrvatski-vojnik.hr/hrvatski-vojnik/0252005/bpictures/CROWS_US%20Humvee%20and%20burning%20oil%20pipeline .jpg except have a window back there instead of that door thing

Lookin' cool! I will be looking forward to this build.

i probably would've done that if i hadn't already cut the roof and molded it
thanx though

UPDATE
well bondo-ing the two pieces together was a byotch let me tell you. Since i've never really worked with plastic too mush it was a learning expierence for me. As far as the roof goes, i'm going to smooth it all out but keep the sunroof. i may add the roof racks back in later, but i'm not all that familiar with plastic so it may take a few tries.
