rebuilding AE86- custom bodykit & opening doors

I decided to take a break from my porsche and decided to do this. I've had this AE86 for a year or more and decided to rebuild it. Its going to have custom bodykit and opening doors. So far im thinking of lambo doors but if anyone else has other ideas please tell me.



front bumper- needs more work


interior




What you think?

Front bumper is WAAAAAAY too tall. Take it down a bit and it'll be a lot better.

Re: rebuilding AE86- custom bodykit & opening doors

I know its too tall but i can't be bothered to do that. It took me quite a long time to do it and i don't want to do it again. And i don't reeally care if this car doesn't come out perfect because its my first time doing this much custom work. But thanks for the suggestion.

You dont have to rebuild it. Take a saw, cut out a 1/8" section, and glue it back together.

I think you'll be happy you did. It'll be easy and I think you'll be more satisfied with the final product.
