Re: Civic HB, T-top, widebody

thats looking bad ass, funny too, cuz im working on my ITR with lambo doorS*, and its wide body also, i think it will be a lot cooler to leave it fixed IMO, because if its done right, itll look so cool, you wont want to close it anyways

Re: Civic HB, T-top, widebody

im using testors contour putty and i dont think its the best type of putty for this stuff but its alright. i just put the putty over the styrene then sanded it with a low grit paper and worked my way up. i think i gotta put more putty though, to smooth it out.

haha rx-7 king i saw your thread and decided to post mine up. thanks for the cpmliments yO!

Re: Civic HB, T-top, widebody

t.vo408, I've got a question.
It looks like you did something to the hood. Did you do it your self and how did you do it?

Re: Re: Civic HB, T-top, widebody

nice. not too sure about the t-tops, that's more of a muscle car thing. I say the hood is very cool, and most of all, fix your lambo doors shut.
