Hi all,
Finaly got the first kit made and bonded it all on today. It still needs blending in but Im pretty pleased with the way it went on.
Unfortunatley my wheels wont be here until late next week, but hopefuly it will be sprayed up by then.
Anyway, here you go.

I can see the potential already
Like you said rob, some will like it and some will hate. You have done quite a few things to that car that other people havent done - its good to be different
Love the front bumper

I like it.. I think ?! Not to sure about the 'step' from the rear side panel where it joins next to the rear light cluster though.. Look forward to seeing it all sprayed up with larger wheels on the car, I'm sure it will look totally different then !

Thanks for the comments everyone, I know it looks a bit like a shopping trolley at the moment with the wheels being so far in!
I can promise you, the day I get it sprayed, I will post all the pics up, next weekend hopefuly.
The wing is my own design too, although I have a slightly different one to go on next week, that one will be available.
Cheers, Rob.

it looks a bit like the old rattlesnake kit for the mk4 escort, i'm just wondering will people be able to fit it rob, some people have a lot of problems fitting basic things on here, putting the arches, wings on will be a bit much for most people, i hope you sell some as it looks like you've put some hours into it.

Yes, I know what you mean, have seen the rattlesnake kit.
This will definatley need fitting by a body shop, it all fits well, but needs bonding well and blending in, so its quite a big job. Not particulay difficult though, if you know what your doing.
Ive been taking lots of pics as Ive gone along for the fitting instructions.

looking good m8, though i reckon you need to look at the rear arch again and perhaps mimick the shape of the front one. Have you seen the blitz r34? that has similar arches (ie theyre bubble but cut off square after the wheel like your fronts do, perhaps that could help 
)
Definately different though

who is going to spray it Rob? and if you are getting the whole car re-sprayed do you know roughly how much it would be to re-spray a DBM wagon?

Si, I know what your saying, but Im quite pleased with the rear arches, and its too late to start redesigning them now anyway, Im sure it will all look right when its painted.

Im using a local bodtshop, getting everything but the roof done for about £800, but Im doing nearly all the prep work.
Cheers, Rob.

I like it mate. You are doing something that no-one has done and thats brave and it works. As you say i think it will look the dogs when you have some meaty boots on it and it's fully sprayed up showing all the lines
Well done mate a good job

I hope you can get a closer colour match than i could rob but it gives you an idea. Im looking forward to the real finished article. What wheels have you gone for or is it going to be a surprise?
