hey everyone, I am still working on my brushing and i am really gonna spend a lot of time on this project, weeks instead of days..
ANOTHER UPDATE! Carty I redid the side vent, It's far from perfect but it's better than my last one IMO. The colours at the back of the car are way too dark i knoe but i will take care of those tings after i finish the bodywork.

haha are you serious...? besides an inch added on to the side, it looks like the original.. im not trying to be mean, but I really dont see any difference in the two pictures until I studied it.. its nice and clean work, but not very obvious

hmmmmm almost pointless?? jokes!
the front looks too wide compared to the rear! so sort out the rear arch n it should be fine!
also your little added vent at the bottom of the bumper look ok!
correct me if im wrong but are these the only 2 mods??

Yeah guys there are the only two mods, i dont think you read what i wrote there cuz i am still working on it. I was going to make the rear wheel arches larger but i got stuck on the blurry bumper, so i thought i would put it up and get some comments and some criticisms from pros like ace,carty and crazyrichard. I am still working on it next week i 'll post another update.

the front of that side vent looks horrible, make sure you work on that area, but the back side of the vent is near perfect, fits the curves of the car very well
