I tried something crazy and unique.
i bought a model car.
and i took the grill that came wit it.
and i cut out all of my windows on my skyline.
and i replaced them wit the grill.and now it looks MEAN!
i also cut out all the front grill openings too.
the model car that the grill can wit was so small on the scale that the grill looks right on the bc.
i also stole the decals off the model.
imma try to cut off the front &rear bumpers to replace them wit the body kit that comes wit the model.
SORRY NO PICS>!

Do you have access to a scanner?
You can just lay the car upside down and take pics that way (at least that's how I've been doing it so far.
I'd like to see your window and grill mods.
Here's a pic I did on my scanner.

I'm really impressed by the grill and the colour of your turn signals. Did you paint inside to get that colour or is there some other trick you've used?

Zagatto is talking about your car, BaY oN AiM:p
Oh thx tinyrc.
I have read BaY oN AiM's making, I think it is too complicat for me..
hehehe.....I am lazy..
I just added autobody filler to have my sculpting.. I think sculpting is easier for me..but I also use plastic sheet to make the new rear wing(????how you call it???I don't know..)
similar to putty. And all lines and sections were rebuilt by sculpting knife.:)
however I need to redo many times because of my poor skills......
:mad:

wait, if you dont have a digital camera then cant you just take a pic of your bit, scan it and post it up? that is if you want it to be a pic where it looks like it was on the groundd oor something.
