JPH87 NOV 11, 04:43 PM The hips added to the wide body looks rrreeaallly good. Very nice, might have to rob the RX8 mirror mod looks great on the pics I have seen would you be terribly offended if it they were on one more car. I was in Orlando last month damn you guys have good weather 85 and sunny for 7 days I was there woke to 25 today madcurl NOV 11, 06:42 PM quote Originally posted by exoticse: Thanks. Dean is doing an amazing job. Dude, we need more pics. This pic is older than the previous ones for the nose arrow isn't glassed in. Take some side, rear, and close pics of the area. JimmyS NOV 11, 08:52 PM Curly, I do believe that the nose in that pic is our fiberglass nose. The other pic I believe is just a stock bumper and they decided to buy a fiberglass one instead so they can mod it easier. whodeanie NOV 12, 08:05 AM at this time we are working the hips and the doors. it takes time to get things right. I will be posting up more pics very soon. from the back the car looks fantastic. low, wide and nasty .

You know I like viewing the details and in the other pic it appears that it was your nose that was glassed in near the arrow point, but I could be wrong. madcurl NOV 12, 01:39 PM quote Originally posted by whodeanie: at this time we are working the hips and the doors. it takes time to get things right.

There's no need to view a wide rear with baby wheels on the back, right? This thread is like viewing Leroy's #013 w/o wheels. Even Leroy couldn't stand looking at his chopper with baby wheels. This thread is somewhat different than what I normally do things. I get the wheels first and then work my way back. IMHO wheels are the main objective when setting the "tone" for building a car, followed by the engine, and then body kit. Forgive me for being blunt, but we're just adding the MadArch kit here, certainly nothing ground breaking in that process. I'm digging the hip movement and all-and that's really cool and would love to see close-ups and angles of the modifications, but other than-that lets see some mirror action. I understand the need to keep what's "secret" under wraps-and that's cool. exoticse NOV 15, 11:33 AM In this case it was more of an opportunity than normal planning. The car was already there for the engine swap, and no other mods were planned at the moment, but the opening arose to add the body kit immediately so the opportunity was seized. Waiting around for wheels WAS NOT an option, especially the wheels that i want. Sure i could get a run of the mill set of wheels that everybody gets (about $3 to 4 hundred each) and call it a day, but we both know that is not the goal. Getting wheels first is defiantly the right way to go, but it is not always an available option, and in this case not gonna happen.

Dean puts out some nice cars. Looking at the RX8 mirrors and wondering are they extra wide or just a good fit for the chop? FieroNate NOV 15, 11:09 PM I'm looking at one of Archie's wide body kits and was wondering what type of wheels people are using? What width and tire diameter?
