original_amo Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) Love the wheels, look great. IMO the lines of the front bumper don't flow, just stop dead and the same as what Rob said with the skirts. But as long as you love it is the main thing! Can't really see what you mean by the bumper lines don't flow! The bumpers widend and blended in to flow, but hey each to there own, But hey thanks for the comments guys, I'm always trying new ideas and I try to be different.

original_amo Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Not sure Amo. The veilside skirts dont work imo as the vent looks lost. There not veilside skirts, they were based on the veilside skirt but the only thing I kept was the vent part, the rest was fabricated.

original_amo Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Wheels look nice, not a fan of the kit though, might have worked better in a dark colour. As a show car I'm sure it will get plenty of attention still. My intentions were aimed at building a show car, I did think of a darker colour but i guess it wouldt stand out as much as this does from the "show side of things" I thought you like wide archs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spray it green, pull the wheels out further for a better tyre to arch stance and you could be onto a winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

original_amo Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 I respect every ones opinions and take in all feed back as this is the only way you improve on our design skills, THEY ARE NOT VEILSIDE SKIRTS LOL as stated in previous post. I used the veilside vent then built the rest up. I will put pics up in a build thread once complete, and in its proper stance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay if that's your opinion thats fine, I've built the car and I know how different they are, and how much work went in to them but that's cool.

Dnk Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Who did those for you ???? Now thats pretty cool !!!! You just need a nice CNC machining center and then get on the CAD and design away Not too difficult with the right kit Oh and 4 big billets of some nice alloy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
