Nice looking , keep up the good work , i like the door pannel job !!

[stagen]

Thanks man. Its progressing too slow for my taste but slowly its coming together.

Filler, sanding, filler, sanding. Wish I had a corded drill here, the battery keeps dying on me. But sanding discs make this a hell of a lot easier.

nice build so far! what are these other wheels in the last two pics? you planning on putting them on the car?!

[Tom Cruise]

Yeah, are you planning on using those wheels?

Love how you're going about it all your own way. Ahh the patience you would have to have to do those door panels..let me get some of that patience! Looks really good though. Hope you keep at it. Can't wait to see the progression.

Those are for a buddy of mine. Desmond Promoda ZR-1. I thought about buying them from him when he wanted to sell but then I'd need to redrill them and get better lips made. Stock ones are super weak, about .5 inch on the 17x7.5 and maybe 1 inch on the 17x8s. So instead of buying them, he's going to pay me to polish the lips and repaint the centers.

While sittting around drinking one night we decided to to mount two barrels to a center, and thats the 12.75" wheels there lol. also mounted 2 lips to a center to make a drag front skinny/ motorcycle wheel, lol.

I know I know, this is a 'stance' forum and there hasnt been a whole lot of suspension or wheel goodness going on, but I really need to get this interior done lol.

Still working on the drivers side panel. Onto the final bondo/putty work now. Decided that this thing is getting too heavy for my liking with all of the filler on it, so once this thing is done Im going to make a mold of it and pop out a new full fiberglass panel. Who knows, maybe some poeple would like to by a copy for themselves.

This shows a section that was totally broken off when I got the car.



Still need some more filler, but its close. My younger years of making scale model cars really is helping with the small details.



Gap with the door insert.

This build is really coming into play, great work!

[U2usual]

nice build, keep up the good work.

Test fit the M3 bumper that just came in. Still have to order hardware for the lip, get the mounting down on that, then have it painted.









Horrible pictures I know. I'll get proper ones this weekend... or when its painted.

[Ew!]

cool, those wheels are sweet, lol

[Wout CSL]

Intresting build, not sure if it's gonna fit

The Motion Motorsport underpanel came in earlier this week. Got it installed this weekend. This thing is super sturdy. Best of all stability at higher speeds is improved.

Very complete and very detailed instructions.

[Chuckdee]

Lovin the progress so far.

[HEcreated487]

Great progress. Slow, but well worth it, especially the attention to the details. Impressive.

[Zic]
