u gotta give tutorial on the wing n cage

a short how to would also be cool

the role cage is made out of pieces of a rollcage off of a nascar model. the spoiler is made out of a sheet of lexan cut into the right pieces.

i got to go now more on the cage and spoiler tommorow ;)

anyway my wonderful mother :p :rolleyes: is a computer programmer and is busy getting it to work

Let me guess, your new computer has Windows XP on it.

if it is... it shouldn't be a problem... since my XP recognized my USB memory card drive..

I had the same problem and had to download a new driver from Microsoft; problem solved!:)

yeah i do have windows XP. it turns out my usb port isnt responding so i'm gonna get a new one asap.

the pictures are working now :D

great craftsmanship...apart from it looks really rice....
why is the spoiler clear???...:confused:

DMAN... that is cool!!!

Kinda reminds me of mine...


A racecar with a stcok seat? that (I.M.O) needs to be changed, pronto...

the spoiler is clear because i havent painted it yet :rolleyes: the roll cage hasnt been painted either

the seat is off my tamiya RX-7 i have some other racing seats that came with the Greddy RX-7 and i think i'll use those ;)

BTW integra818 do you have any pics of your or a link that'll send me there. thanks

i was gonna say that but... i couldnt put the words together... oh ya there isnt words for it pff nvm

wow lights with color... what a craxy idea :jump: maybe i'll try that


j/k

but seriously i see what you guys are saying, i'll paint them ;)

Nice integra. What kind of paint did you use for the orange and whats it called?

my suggestions for the engine, would be to make the Strut bar (yellow bits) orange, like the Valve cover.. and try to keep to the Orange "scheme"

thizishkenny, its tamiya orange spray not bright orange, just orange.

Integra14, yeah that sound good with the strut bar.


now what color should the spoiler be? silver, semi gloss black or flat black with clearcoat? and what color should the spoiler mounts be?

Put a carbon fiber decal on the spoiler, if you don't have a decal, I'll trade my decal for something. You have anything?

i've got carbon fiber decal but i want it to resemble an aluminum GT style spoiler, not nessessary (spelling?) aluminum in color if you know what i mean ;)
