So initially, you'll need:


  • Headlights
  • Hood
  • Bumper
  • Fender
  • Possibly rad support



Then making it all line up and fit together on the body is going to be biggest challenge. Or, you use stock parts and weld, cut and mold like crazy!

It looks great and as we all can tell it will be really hard to put it all together so clean like this one !!!

I'm 99% sure that you don't need Fl2 hood !

Wow! Looks great. Rear reminds me of a MK IV Supra.
