Ok guys! Well I'm starting another project. I got this kit for my birthday, which was the 14th. Well I was going to wait till the new year to start this, but I had soooo many ideas following through my head that I couldn't wait!! So First off I desided on making it a two door, shave the handles and paint it pearl white. Well I'm still going that way but I ran into a BIG problem. The kit was warped REALLY BADLY!!! Well I soaked it in warm water, nothing changed so I took the heat gun to it and straightened it back up. So I made new door lines and started the new center console, I'm going for a more stock lookin exterior and a wildly custom interior. Well thanks for lookin guys and here are the pics. ;)

The kit:

I never new someone made the two door in resin. Do you have a link to it or a picture? But I might stay with this body because I'm going for a more stock lookin exterior.
