W.I.P Honda Civic HB Widebody SAS

[iceracer1]

He guys,

while I´m working on my BMW, I wanted to start a new project. The Revell Tuner Civic HB.





You can build this one stock or custom. I´ll make the custom one of course
Here the diffrents between the bodykitts:








I also ordered the Scale auto Style widebody for the civic.




I also bought some other wheels. XS-tuning wheels 17''. These wheels are made for this kitt and will fitt without customize.



I also searched for some detail photo's:












If anyone got some tips for me about the quality of this kitt or something else let me know.

Kris.

I'm thinking about yellow with pearl clear. Or maybe dark blue....

New update:

The widebody is added to the civic. I filled al the gaps with putty and sanded it.

I also made a start to the engine.

A new update!

I changed my idea for the valvecover. I painted it flat red and used some CF for the spark-plugcover.

I used a custom exhaust header and painted it with metallic blue and orange to create a hot curves :P

Also made a rubber on the air intake:








Now it's time to fitt the bodykitt good on the front and rearbumper.

I spent some time on the bodywork and sanded it after the putty...Than I sprayed the primer on it to look if there are places that need some putty again.

There were a couple of little places that needs to be sanded again but that's no problem!

I also decided to keep the white XS-tuning wheels for an other project (civic coupe) and I made some photo's of al the TUNERS SERIES wheels I've got.

Help me!











I really like the 3rd and the 5th wheels but the the 4th and the 8th with black spokes...... I don't know wich one I must choose

Finally I spent some time working on the Civic.

First I painted the wheels.


The original seats are to bad so I decided to search for others. I found some and they had a bit putty work.


Than I painted the XS-tuning Discbrakes


First I wanted to paint the car yellow but now I wanted him RED!!

I also painted the enginebay red:


Than it was time for the big moment. Painting the body. I used TS-49 Bright Red.
The carbonfiber decal is the stock one wich came within the kit. It was really hard to put this one nice on the hood. I had 2 of these carbon hood decals and I needed them both... I screwed up the first one and the second one was better. I had a little wrinkle on one place so I added some tuning decals on it.

I really like it now. Red body, CF hood, White wheels

Here are the pics:




















Maybe I'll ad a big white flashdecal from the Integra kit on it if it fits. Than I can clear coat the body and polish it!

Hope you like it!

Kris.
