progress-civic coupe

This kit is a civic coupe from revell. there is alot done to this one so far. fully shaved, over the front tires i had to cut open holes to allow the 20's to come through it(yes 20's on a civic, all the way around!!!) then i molded "turtle shells" so to speak over the holes to close them up. scatchbuilt aluminum roll cage, shaved dash, 3L V6 from a NSX. Heres pics.........

Re: progress-civic coupe

at first i was a little iffy about the big red decal across the side with the blue, but thought it looked alright. but the flames tottally ruin this model.......it makes so not clean looking. from early progress and all the shaving thought your were going for a simple and clean look.

but i give you props for all the body mods, they look fabulous!
