Thanks Kaze ;)



Well, got some putty around the diffuser.

And here's what the muffler looks like with the diffuser. Much nicer ;)

I noticed that I painted the headlights wrong, so I decided to repaint them.

(After)

And then I thought, this looks like crap. So I got rid of all the paint.

Rechromed.

Btw, it's going to be white.

Coming along nicely, and I want to see the finished product... pretty bad.

taiwanesekid05 07-04-2010 01:39 AM

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 :'(

And, as suggested, some mesh. Actually one of those noodle scooping things from SF, but whatever.

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.

taiwanesekid05 07-05-2010 12:56 AM

Started on the intercooler.

taiwanesekid05 07-06-2010 01:05 AM

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.

The new intercooler looks a LOT better than the old one, keep it up!

Looking forward to see the next update. :)

dreamingISdrifting 07-06-2010 04:41 PM

Everything is looking nice man, Diggin the intercooler too. That thing probably weighs a ton... I am hoping to see it finished!!! SOON!!!

xmodsNSX94 07-06-2010 05:33 PM

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

taiwanesekid05 07-06-2010 05:42 PM

Its, um, pencil. I was bored and wanted to see what it would look like.

taiwanesekid05 07-07-2010 01:00 AM

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)

BREAKING NEWS! Taiwanesekid05 is AMAZING at bodywork.

taiwanesekid05 07-13-2010 12:41 AM

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_1924.jpg

taiwanesekid05 08-13-2010 01:15 AM

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

taiwanesekid05 09-28-2010 01:53 AM

Primered it. This is what it should look like later on since the paint will be white.

taiwanesekid05 01-01-2011 01:07 AM

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

taiwanesekid05 08-04-2011 01:35 AM

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.

I also replaced and fixed the front bumper. Again.
