If he flattened the arches it wouldnt look right you cant really flatten round arches, if he'd gone for nova / lancia style arches then he could have done but i dont think those arches would suit a 4g

Anyway when are going to get this painted shane ?

Looks like you've done a pretty good job on the bodywork.


Personaly its not something I'd do, but that doesn't mean I don't think its cool to see others do. Your car should be what you want it to be, so I say don't worry about what others think.



Keep posting updates on here so that the people who can appreciate that everybody has different tastes can see what you get up to. Personally I am interested to see how this turns out.

I am being won over by this "hideous" yet beautifully savage max poxer/red line/fast car vehicle.


I do genuinely get very excited about the updates to this thread.


Its ugly but also amazingly savage.

I like!

Even I will have to admit that I think I can see where your going with now....and it's looking promising......don't think your bonnet will ever convince me... but fair play to you....make it what you want it to be....some real effort has gone into this build.
