1/22 widebody & other updates
Monday, January 22, 2007 7:45 AM
Well b/c of the current cold streak thats flying through buffalo i havent been able to get a whole lot done on the exterior of the car but to0k advantage of it by getting about 75% done on the passenger side of the car,been working on my do0r panels and headlight and trunk,here are some pics.....
Pics of the widebody w/ the fiberglass panels now on the do0r,obviously not done yet i need to go in and straighten these out and get ride of all the waves still


I've also been working on my own rear window louvers,i still have to go in and fine sand these and setail the sh!t outta them but when there done they mold right in to the widebody to help toward that smo0th sleek lo0k im goin for


Ho0d sco0p ready for wetsanding....

Do0r panels....Made some gauge holder on the do0r,these panles will house my infinity kappa 6.5's,also glassed the brackets in for the monitors,the black sharpie design are a template im thinkin bout doing just to add some shape to the panel,they will be made from mdf than i will make a raised edge out of fiberglass and the panels will be apoxied in place when the panels done.....just an idea i dunno if im gunna do it yet,,,,

And the headlights.....got some 3in white halo projectors,still not done,i need to sand the inner parts of the headlight where the projectors rings are so the lights will sit flush and not stick out so far in the pick,but i think it came out pretty go0d for a first try,when done these will be painted to match and when i have a final product to show off i will be taking orders if any1 wants sum made for a fire or cav


Well thats it for now hopefully it wont be another 4months till you see an update from me again unfortunately school,work and now weather have gotten the best of me,I recently got an 03 cav w/ a 2.2 ecotec so the engine n tranny swap will be happening asap along with air ride,rims and cyberdyne gauge updates,ill try to stay on top of my updates as they come so stay tuned

Mannn, PROPS on the work, but that part on the door looks like a crabs claw, or some kind of fork.. I just dont like the design right there..

A lot of work ahead of you. I respect what you're doing.

That is a TON of work. Jeez, props on that.

I can't knock the doors because I bet it's look sick if you had a two-tone color scheme and that part was a different color from the rest of the door.

Anyway, it looks good.

Everything that was primered was sanded off,just primered to show waves,dips etc in the area

As far as every1s comments,thanks. I was lo0king at the pics n i was like "crab claw? wow how could i not see that" when i drew it out on paper it lo0ked alot better,hopefully the idea i have will fix this problem,below is a pic of what im planning to do,i have yet to do the panels on the drivers side,so i will do that side first,if it turns out go0d i will hack up the passenger side and do it as well(which most likely will happen) luckily fiberglass and filler arent to hard to but threw w/ and sawsall
My solution....

This is just a rough idea of what it will lo0k like,but alotta better than what i have now.....
And no i have dont have stock in bondo.....just fiberglass
Thanks again guys i appreciate your honesty on the "crabfire" lol
