    while I don't really like those style cars...if you are really going to turn this into one you're going to need a much larger front splitter to go with the rear spoiler to do it correctly.

      I appreciate the input.

      But this build isn't a replica of a Kaido Racer or a Bosozoku car.
      This is more of my mix of styles.

      I am a big fan of Kyusha Kai style, which is a clean and simple style where the cars have mostly stock body lines with well fitting wheels and minimal aero.
      I am also a fan of Kido Racers, but a typical Kaido car has massive Works fender flares or general crazy wide body, big front splitters and aero all round and massive wings.

      The way I'm building this car will let me change from my concept look, to a Kyusha Kai look, just by changing a few parts. So essentially it is like having 2 cars in 1.

                I'm currently trying to hunt down the fog light grill for the Crown, there were a few different grills made for them as they came out as MS123, MS125, GS120 and GS121.

                Something like this, or with single tall foglights on either side

                          i'm almost tempted to say, the world needs the 80's again

                          but when i think of the mullets, the strange clothes and stuff, i'm thinking nah

                          yes on the boxshaped cars tho

                          is it sunday yet?

                            SO it is Sunday, but no good news on the update.

                            Was meant to bring the Crown home, so I can start work on it... but there are strong cross winds today, which means no towing for me

                            The only glimpse of good news is, it has been a month since I paid for the wheels, so they can't be more than just a few weeks away...
