Thanks Kaze ;)
Well, got some putty around the diffuser. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1849.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1848.jpg And here's what the muffler looks like with the diffuser. Much nicer ;) http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1850.jpg I noticed that I painted the headlights wrong, so I decided to repaint them. (Before) http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1858.jpg (After) http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1862.jpg And then I thought, this looks like crap. So I got rid of all the paint. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1863.jpg Rechromed. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1864.jpg |
Btw, it's going to be white.
Coming along nicely, and I want to see the finished product... pretty bad. |
Well, no real work, but I got some stuff.
One thing was some styrene that's spaced to .30 instead of .40. Makes the intercooler more to scale. But I still need to make the intercooler :'( http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1865.jpg And, as suggested, some mesh. Actually one of those noodle scooping things from SF, but whatever. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1866.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1867.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1872.jpg |
That mesh looks good. Also that mesh you are using is really similar to the grease splatter guard mesh. lol
Very little differences in the spacing on them. |
Started on the intercooler.
http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1880.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1877.jpg |
The intercooler is fini.
http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1884.jpg Compared to the old intercooler. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1886.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1888.jpg Slight mock up. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1889.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1890.jpg And after some cutting... http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1892.jpg Added more detail to the front. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1894.jpg And repainted the headlamps. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1891.jpg |
The new intercooler looks a LOT better than the old one, keep it up!
Looking forward to see the next update. :) |
Everything is looking nice man, Diggin the intercooler too. That thing probably weighs a ton... I am hoping to see it finished!!! SOON!!!
|
looking good man, loving the progress from the start and how did you get the HKS on to the intercooler because that is sick. :)
thanks michael |
Its, um, pencil. I was bored and wanted to see what it would look like.
|
After a bit of cutting, I got the intercooler forwards a bit more (just messing with you XMD ;) )
http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1907.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1906.jpg Had to bend the intercooler a bit. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1919.jpg Unfortunately, in the process, some of the front bumped cracked off. No worries, nothing a little super glue and putty can't fix ;) http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1905.jpg Added more putty to the front left of the bumper. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1912.jpg Happy(er) car :D http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1913.jpg A bit of the hood's putty cracked off. So I got that sorta fixed. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1917.jpg And added more detail to the intercooler (weld lines) http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1909.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1911.jpg |
BREAKING NEWS! Taiwanesekid05 is AMAZING at bodywork.
|
The headlamps are now painted.
http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1921.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1922.jpg And I had to cut a bit of the intercooler in order to make way for the front clip (which I also had to cut). http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1923.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1924.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1925.jpg Basically where its going to sit. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1926.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1927.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1928.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1930.jpg |
Didn't do much over the last few weeks, just added some panel lines for the doors.
I'm going to prime it soon since it just looks like a mosaic of random colors and I'm having a hard time figuring out where all the problems are X( http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/IMG_1997.jpg |
Primered it. This is what it should look like later on since the paint will be white.
http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2204.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2205.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2207.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2208.jpg |
Wow, this thing is so beast, watching it from the beggining to waht it is now is awesome. Is it going to be a shelf queen, I swear I will have to shoot your if it is XP lol

I've been busy with school (and Minecraft) so I haven't been working on this too much. Just a little work on the hood.
http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_3967.jpg |
Mostly just been working on the hood.
http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02015.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02016.jpg I bought some CF decal for the hood. I'm not good at placing it on, so I had to do it in parts. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02017.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02018.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02020.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02019.jpg Compared to the BK's CF hood. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02021.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02022.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02023.jpg http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02025.jpg I also replaced and fixed the front bumper. Again. http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/DSC02026.jpg |
