Here are some pics of my first custom Body job.

This started as a stock blue ZipZap Civic.

I know it looks like crap but I learned alot from this car like when painting spry is the way to go as it goes on much smoother.

The original windows were tinted a bit so I opted not to mask them and just paint over them as I dont really like tinted windows.

This PIMP want you to see whos kickin YO ASS!! LOL

Thanks for the support guys. I amnot good with the electrical mods (mosfets,duel cells,ext.) so I am gona work on tons of body work and see what I can come up with.


One thing, I can't beleive that some company has not come out with prefab body kits for the diff micro car companies(bit,zz).

Well I will keep working away and maybe soon I can have something good enough to enter in the contests that are always running.
