Body kit question

[geofroley]

I haven't done anything. I'm just preparing for my next project.

The only way to really get good with it is LOTS of practice. No matter how much taltent you have to start with, you always get better with every new build! If you look on my site at some of my older builds vs. my more current ones, you can really see how much improvement I have made (much more so since being on this forum) over the years. So start hacking away!!!!

I'm gonna start as soon as I can! My first custom-bodykit project will be a VeilSide style Scion xB. It's pretty simple so I think I can get it. Thanks for all the help guys!

Alright guys I need some help with putty. I know HLJ has it so I'm wondering what brands and such.

Also, how do I make the styrene all curved and such? I see lips and lower ends of bumpers that have curves and I'm wondering how i get it to do that.

Look for the Toyota bB bumper and you'll see what I mean. Also what thickness of styrene will I need?

errrr, hate to sound picky, but can't you learn to use the edit button? replying to yourself 3 times isnt that much different...

Try to get the BEST shape out of styrene that you possibly can! I'm learning the HARD way NOT to just slab putty on! If you want to see you can search for one of my GT350 Widebody threads.

Good luck

Alright then. Looks like this will require some serious T&A.
