Yea, I now that camera sucks. The sound system was custom made by me

I notice that the wheels seem pretty far apart. Did you think about chopping the axle a bit to fit the wheels into the wells a bit better?

Things like these are made by being creative, body kits and stuff like that are made simply by putting putty on the bumpers and shaping it into whatever shape you want. You can also use styrene plastic they are thin sheets of plastic, this is the material you use to make an intercooler. As for engine detailing just think of a real engine and all the details.

I have heard of people using bondo but I'm a bit wary of that. It probably wouldn't be very easy to work with but it sounds possible.
