STR8 SEXSky240PWR wrote:ok......so i came home today and was going to check my email before i go rub one out......the car that is..lol...and sure enough, he sent a few pics of the front bumper with the vents in and stuff so i flew over and took some better angle pics with my trusty iphone....lol
I love the look from the front, it was exactly how i fantasized ...i mean thought it would look like
but from the side......there was one part that needs to be fixed(can't tell from the front view so much), which he his.........he's going to take this little hump off and follow the red line down, the hump was there from the lights that were there before....but all will be fixed....he also has to pull the left lower lip out alittle more, so he'll be cutting it again for that, eventually, he has to work on the wheel well to make it more rounded, instead of staight like it is....
....ok folks it's that time of the show.....can you guess.........................yes thats write.......photoshopping time!!!..lol
ok, here's a few angle pics of the front.......now see some of you look at these two pics and say ewwwww ...looks like ****... but i look at them and see what they'll could look like when finished....
and here's how i see them....i drew on some splitters and a front and side diffuser on one of them.....i'm doing the diffusers for sure, note sure on the splitters yet...
I have one more pic from the side i'm going to put up but will take a few....be back though.........what do you guys think?
YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THIS!!!..LOLNo offense but i think you're wrong, most every super car is unproportioned, thats what makes them so sexy, the r8 is one that has a higher top but not the Mclaren...it just looks like it cause the windows are so long...........the list can go on and on...lambos, jag xj220, moslermt900s, vipers, saleen, ford gt, Bugatti Veyron, Maserati MC12, Mercedes CLK GTR, Porsche Carrera GT, ect....you get the point..lol.....i played around with some pics to help prove my point.....the mclaren when viewed from the back, really looks no different from my tops height.......Hcraig13 wrote:^ i think he was messing???? About the chopped top- i really think its a great idea but with those MASSIVE rear fenders it just looks odd to me. Also im not trying to rag on you AT ALL so please dont get offended. A lot of supercars are very well proportioned. Yes they are low and wide but the tops never really that low. For example.
It just doesn't look that proportional to me but like i said before X10000000 for doing it.
Also with the bumper cracking- I would say it may not for a while but it anything ever tapes it it will probably crack and the clear coat me start to spider crack from the stiffness in that area. You dont want it too stiff.
thats funny......i was typing all that out and photochopping before i had a chance to see your last post..lola_ahmed wrote:NOW we're talking, excellent and i like the chopped and splitter pix hehe... now we're talking
a_ahmed wrote:Ever thought aboutt maing the rear end more square? Now that I think about it, exagerating the rear wider fenders with a wide flat cut might be nice if yhou know what i mean.... Like the enzo you know how there is a cut... or the f40.... or even the mclaren see how the rear end is all square.
I once was discussing design with my dad and he made a good point (after some brief observations) most of these cars that sport circular lights are square in design (the ones that look good). Just a thought... even the new f430 it really empowers the car's looks.
Yeah...i wish my back quarter pannels didn't curve in, with they went all the way back but once again....that would be a big fab job..plus added weight...and like i said before, time is money....lol
.....thanks man, that means alot to me.......and yes a_ahmed, you can lol at the love..lolDMan II-40 wrote: I have been watching this build since the start. I don't remember what page I posted on first. I was a troll on this forum for about a year before I joined finally.
And honestly this is my favorite build, and your style is close to mine so it makes it cool. I love both of your others cars too.yeah...i'm counting on it....heart will be broken if not... ....i would love to get some overseas attention too....like the Ikeya car....everyone knows right away who built that car when they see it(well the ones who know all the companies..lol)...thanks again guys!DMan II-40 wrote:I can't wait to see this thing finished, it is lookin good. You will get a magazine cover page on this thing for sure if you contact the right people. And I will be there to buy that magazine.
what ideas are you talking about?....using sheet metal unstead of fiberglass.......it would of been easier to change some of the stuff i don't like and with fiberglass, there's alot more things you have to do, but on the plus side, fiberglass is lighter...... if i had the money, there's alot i would do different but i don't...lol...I'm not going to do anymore big changes...everything from here on out will be small ones(except the chop top)......so when you guys show me all these big changes that you think would look better.......please don't cause it kinda brings down my mentality, it reminds me that I'm in over my head(but going to finish nomatter what) and wish i had backing or rich parents..lola_ahmed wrote:
This is something I had in mind too. I know you don't have $$$ no more but.... if I had $$$ i'd consider some of those ideas lol.. then again.. sometimes better to do it right from the start all the way through if you venture into such a project but up to you haha
ok...no 24s, chrome, or diamonds.........but maybe i didn't make myself clear......i already bought the megan coilovers.....now i know, why did you spend 800 or whatever it was on coilovers and not buy better ones, it's cause when i was doing research on them, i heard mostly if not all good comments on them(except they weren't JDM) and i know, they're basically copies of a jdm one but whatever........that was all the money i had at the time......my point is do you know how hard it would be to get my hand that far back to the coilover to raise or lower the car......it would be a pain in the ***, it doesn't help that i'm a bigger guy either.....not to mention my 350z is slammed so low i can't get a jack under it....i have ramps to help....pain in the *** when i got a flat tire, not to mention getting it on a lift for oil changes or repairs, and with the 240, maybe even getting it on a trailer for shows.......so i need a air system that would help with all that and also help the performance of the cars handling.......i've already stated i don't know much about this but it looks like these two companies offer that...??a_ahmed wrote:after seeing that hell no... spend instead that money on some high end set of coilovers from koni or bilstein or something :-/ Seeing that I imagine your car with chrome, gold, and diamonds scattered all around sporting 24 inch rims.... no
