I should have my car in the shop next week! That means I'll look HOT for a day or so, then the kit will come off and I get all my ugly stuff back 02.gif But for you guys, that'll mean WB fenders (to match a WB front) new WB sideskirts and rear fender flares. I'm working on getting the back done, but that has to happen on the RD1 first. So the rear for this kit will come after the front, sides, and front and rear fender flares. I'll finish up by making a rear for the RD Widebody, and then a front for the RD1 Widebody.
The reason I'm starting with the kit from the second chop, is I have a bumper to make that exact front end, and I have sideskirts to make the WB style. The only thing I dont have, is super readily available fender flares, but I still haven't picked the exact ones I want. I have some pics of a set that'd look killer on the Tiburon because of the way they'll sit against the fenders.

Vehicle: 2000 Tiburon
The shop I got my work done at said they would do the flares and wide body my car for 400 extra a wheel. I didn't think the wide body on the Tib though differnt would look right with fender lines. That Celica kit can look nice but I've seen more ugly ones than good ones due to lack of tire choice, spacing problems etc. Yes my man here has the celica and has lost the front bumper on a manhole cover, train tracks and recently after the third replacement split the splitter dam whatever on the front in half but hey at least the bumper didn't go this time. He refuses to paint the kit anymore, he just primers the front black with each new bumper he buys.

I think the first one is a bit nicer than the second, just because there is such a wide opening in the front and alot of our cars aren't turbo'd. Also those slits in it kinda make it look more like a blitz kit.
