Arrow 1993 honda civic coupe TURBO {street racer}

************ COMPLETED ***************


hello everyone, I built a revell honda civic kit a while back and i was dissappointed that the kit didnt offer a factory stock look . The sideskirts were molded on and the bodykit bumpers are no where close to stock looking . So i build the kit right out the box . Only thing I added to the kit was some stickers I was experimenting with . I have some things instored for this kit as you will all see . I started tearing it down earlier this week ...
here are the shots of how it sat when i finished the car a long time ago...... use these to compare the difference at the end....







------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I started sanding down the sideskirts .... i cut the sideskirts off to the door line, then sanded the rest, still needs work . For stock sideskirts im using the revell acura rsx sideskirts , they are short by a lil bit but nothing evergreen cant fix . The rear bumper is salvagable, I just sanded down the bodykit groove it had , trimmed the bottom of the bumper a bit , and gave it the "rear cut bumper" look..... this will be great for when i add suspension goodies (asr plate , lower control arms , lower tie bar etc.)



no front bumper.... im going turbo on this car and a huge front mount will look alot better than a front bumper....

took engine out .....
