A friend of mine attempted to put this kit together, and nearly ruined it by spraying with cheap household spraypaint.........

.......but I managed to salvage it with the help of some 200 grit sandpaper.... And I decided to add some of my own customization...

Notice the wide mouth front end? Thanks to an xacto blade and a front lip donated from a Revell Integra..

And see through engine bay cover located just behind the seats....

MORE TO COME......

make a wide body on it like it is now I think it look like crap (I dont like honda beat)

I like honda beat's and most of the other jap mini cars like the Suzuki Cappuccino and Toyota Sera. I like what u have done to it so far and i hope u do something to the rear and sides too.
Freebie kits are a great way to get into customizing, then your not worried about wasting the money if u screw up!

how did you do the turbo? explain please.

I lost the headlight lenses and mt freind wanted me to do something a lil more radical to it after seeing my CRX so I decided to ax the front bumber and replace it with the revell ITR front bumper.....

I also decided to add the side moldings that came with the kit while I was at it to better match the front....

More to come.......
