Topic #10291 64 posts Started by khye
Whats the latest on this hood and wide body kit?
He tells me that the guys in the bodyshop are still working on it....they want to make sure they get it all properly finished.

They are slow but they want to do it right!!

I'll post up here as soon as they have it nearer completion, some photos too!! >wink.gif>
If this hood comes in, Im going to have to drop out of the group buyfor the vis hood. I like the aneyima rx7 hood look!
hello? any word on this?

Doggy, I am right behind you on making this hood. I got those vents already, its just a matter of molding them in to a plain carbon hood. I was going to add a naca duct right in the middle. I am currently orking on my custom sideskirts. If the price is good, I just might buy this hood instead.

Kyle do you have a rain gutter(add/on) for this hood?

NICE!!!!! >biggrin.gif>  >biggrin.gif>  >biggrin.gif>

Anything is possible!
First guesstimate is at around 650 dollars before shipping.

If anyones interested in setting up a group buy or something,
I'm sure that would come down by a lot.

Sorry this is taking so long guys, we had to redesign the main kit on the car.

We are trying to get the wide arch kit designed so we can make the kit as bodyshop friendly as possible.

But we have an update...the kit is being finished as we speak.

The sprayshop is waiting for the car now and should be finished shortly.

If anyone is interested in seeing the work in progress I have put up some pictures here..

What are the chances the car will start after being in the shop for 2 years? hehe

The bumper is made from scratch..the bonding is just for this 1st car...we are taking a kevlar mold of the finished kit so we can reproduce it.

Adjusting the suspension and adding wider wheels was the bit that held the project back really.
Plus other project cars, the Celica got pushed back a bit in the priority stakes!

It's coming along now though! wink.gif

Sorry for the lack of photos on this, I'm gonna upload some more in the coming days.

We are working on the paint at the moment, going for "Super Red 2" and deep dish split-rim alloys to finish the job.

Once the car is finished we will have all the molds prepared and we will make a few kits available.

The fitting should be pretty easy thats the main aim of this project to make the finished kit as easy to fit as possible.

Other than fitting spacers to the wheels the rest of the job should be straight forward.

Thanks for the support... wink.gif
