BMW 316i compact progress

Hi this is my second BMW ever built. It is the hatchback version of the E36 3-series. I think the original front bumper looks too thin and doesn't match the rest of the body so I started modifying it first thing.
The bumper design comes from the style in the PS2 game Tokyo Extreme Racer 0.


Im also planning to put a GT wing on it. Otherwise the rest of the body would be kept stock unless I find some better looking parts.

The shape is made with styrene boards and soon many areas will be filled with epoxy putty.

It is the dragon kit, but some parts seem to come from Revell since their sprues have the Revell logo molded on.
This is the only one I could get my hands onto. They seem non-existence around where I live.

Milliput was put on shortly after the boards are glued on. I think I will paint the body a somewhat deep metallic green. I've mixed the paint already and are in a bottle ready to use. It will be close to the color of my civic sedan as they are leftovers from the project.
