alright, well i was makin out a list of stuff that i had to do for the project car that i am going to get in the near future (still looking for the perfect one)
with my project, i found one hatch, with a rotting/rusting back hatch, and i also wanted to shed a few LB's since i was goign to make it a track car, so i was thinkin, what if i took out the side quarter glass that has the 240sx scripted, and replaced it with sheetmetal, well i did a photochop, and it sorta has a look of a FC RX7 or and old 80-90s camaro, and then the thought crossed my mind, while looking at teh photochop, what if i took the back glass hatch off and fab'd a metal setup that replaces it that gives it a MR2-ish look to it, and to me it really doenst matter, becuase there is going to be a fuel cell and battery in the trunk area, so that stuff will be out of the view of the public, i also plan to replace the door glass with shatterproof lexan to shed a few LBs
right now its just an idea, and sorry for the bad quality of the chop, becuase i was forced to use MS paint since i could find photoshop on my buddies computer

well if u wanna shed some real lb's, then replace all the glass w/ lexan...and on the hatch, remove all mecanical parts and weld it shut...remove all window apparati, and have non functional windows...remove the headlight assemblies inside the covers, and weld the covers down......remove everything non functional and weld it shut :-p
Rockenreno wrote:killer blind spots... it looked ok on the coupe, but i didnt like it on the hatch at all. Doesn't really fit. Plus, big blind spots, as i said...
thats what I thought, the car already has bad blind spots, and you want to add more, just black it out with limo tint if you want to make it black
