    Couple more update pics of the widebody

    Well, I have the molds almost done. I bent up a piece of metal which is going to be a mold for the rear valance, and cut out some cardboard to get an idea of what I want my front splitter to look like. -Ben

      I think it looks tits, but you should find something to smooth out the door transition so it doesn't look like a kit "slapped on" a car.

            Foot-thick doors would be awesome... great for weight savings.

              Looks great from the front but the sides I'm not really feelin. Reminds of the slap on Honda "widebody" kits that are nothing more than add on panels for looks. You get props for taking on the project though...can't wait to see the finished product.

                  the front looks mean as shit, but the sides look very plain and blockey.

                  if u finish this out with some shine, it will be an awsome project.

                        You should incorporate rear brake cooling ducts somewhere on the front of the rear wide body panels if you plan on leaving the complete box flare look.

                          Thanks for the compliments guys. I think the front looks mean as hell. As for the side shots. It looks good now, but when its in color I think it will be much better looking. I am going to have rear brake coolers in the rear vents, along with a huge oil cooler in the passenger vent I think. And for a motor, I am looking at a built up NA S50. I dont need more than 350hp to make this a fast car.

                            That would have to be one hell of a built up NA S50 making 350hp... huge undertaking, hats off to you for this project, I look forward to seeing more completed pics.
