How are you gonna open the doors now? Or you're doing lambo doors?

Yah, i'm curious about that aswell, I personally absolutely hate lambo doors.... if you're going to keep them normal, you're definately going to have to create a crease in the door jam area so the door will open properly.

Welp, Just my .02

Btw, I love how it's coming along so far, I've always wanted to create my own body kit for my car, hopefully i will someday

i think i am in love! I was planning on doing this sometime down the road in practicly the same process. Are you going to make a mold and possibly sell this as a kit? And how are you keeping everything symetrical? That was the main problem i was thinking about when i wanted to make my own widebody.

Thank you disturbedkorn, 91STT, lancelotGT and others.

inperfectdarkness: exactly! i love the same look, hence the door extensions to make the cabin look smaller in comparison to the width of the body around it.

My92stealth, ilian: im contemplating a rear spoiler, i have couple of options in mind... i wont do a lip spoiler coz ill have an integrated brake light strip incorporated into the boot lid with a slight curvature on it. i was thinking of a huge evo style wing and not slanting in like the '99. But the more i look at it the more strongly i feel there should be NO spoiler

daddy, default: No lambo doors either... the doors will open normally, the fenders wont hinder coz they will be hollow on the inside with enough space for the door to turn in.

Hotelkilo: Yes this is being casted and made into a fiberglass kit. however im doing it only for my car at the moment. Like i said before, ive designed more than 30kits mainly jap cars... symmetry and styling comes from experience, been at it for five years now. I could mass produce it if i have a sizable order as international freight (we're not located in the us) would be insane and this one is going to be very extensive in terms of changes and number of panels.

wow didnt know that. I know they call them like Efini in Japan. Thats kind of crazy since the rx-7s and rx-8s are popular sports cars expecially since they are rotary powered.

Well that is off subject. What are some of the other cars you have done?

autopsycho · 09-26-2007, 11:11 AM

i know!! we greatly lack sports cars here (India). have done mostly jap sedans like accords, civics, suzuki swifts, toyota corollas, mitsu mirages, etc. few european imports... Merc E's, bmw 3's, skoda octavias...

Going offtopic.... Here's a pic of a couple of our widebodies... '02 Octavia and '03 Accord.
