Talking Re: revell 1993 honda civic , the dericed version** going H2B TURBO

- did some minor bodywork today......

*here is a pic of the rad support which i did a little more structure to it, and light sanding


* here is what i had sanding up to today, i grinded down most of the "bodykit" sideskirt, and trimmed it all up to the door line....


*closer angle shot


*rear bumper which i cut an opening in the center, local street dragster in new jersey do this...it gives more of an eyeful of the rear suspension setup...also suppose to eliminate wind drag at top speed...... sanded down the "sidevent" bumper had flat.....


* i then took a sharp pointed file, and scribed the rear bumper for more detail as you can hopefully see in the pic...


* when i sanded the lower body panel where the "bodykit" sideskirt was i needed to reinforce it with a scrap piece of 0.30 styrene in back of it. As i was sanding it ,the plastic got real thin, but problem solved.........


*otherside...


*I used the revell acura rsx sideskirts for this model . They were a lil short but ill fix that with some styrene ... I tapped everything together , and plastic welded the sideskirts on. they fit on very great, minus the shortness.


* here is a good shot of the rear bumper after some scribing and light sanding.....


*otherside...
