Toyota Celica GT-4, old project, new idea.

[Jonno]

G'day,

Currently I have this:



and I want to transform it into something that looks like this:


(full car here)

Now, what I am looking for is more pictures of the Veilside body kit and any tips on making body kits.

I doubt I will use a carbon fibre hood, the rear spoiler on that car or the mags.

Any comments appreciated

Good luck... you gonna need it. Veilside body kit is not a easy thing to scratchbuild.

Thanks for the responses and the link guys!

Ok, yesturday night and this morning I started wetsanding the body to get the paint off.

After looking at the pictures for a bit longer I figured that it would be a bit easier if I treat every section of the body kit as a different project. Only working on one section of each panel at a time.

And as for the rear bar, would it be the best way to go by cutting out an oval shape piece of styrene plastic as the flat surface stick that to the stock bumper, and then use putty to fill in the gaps, then use straight pieces of styrene to make the straight pieces on the rear bumper?

Cheers.
