mookie Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I have seen many custom cars, and one that really caught my eye is a Lexus GS430 from Swift Car Club. I finished this Charger a while back for my sister, but it has just been collecting dust on my shelf so I decided to make it look like Lexus below. I also changed the suspension and modified the engine bay, and cut the roof (obviously). Plans at the moment include custom center enclosure front tilting hood and side tilting trunk, maybe even suicide rear doors, but the back doors is just and idea at he moment. I am also planning to do a custom paint job like the one in the video, maybe (crossing my fingers). I know some of you will not like it, but I have made race cars, lowriders, stock cars, even a donk, and now it is time to try something else. I tried to embed the video, but it wanst working so click the link below This is the car in the video.
David@MinidreamsInc. Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Ya that Swift car club is known for wild automotive art work ! Thats going to be a cool custom when your finished !
mookie Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 Sprayed a little flat black, and got the stace l wanted. Opened up the bottom grille a little, in my opinion it looks a little better.
TexasFinest Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Looks good so far. Hope it turns out the way you want. Looking forward to the suicide doors...
mookie Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 I tried doing the suicide doors, but the posts kept on breaking on me. I decided to skip doing the doors on this one maybe on the next one, they were just frustrating me because they kept snapping.
mookie Posted July 31, 2011 Author Posted July 31, 2011 Finally decided on color scheme. Black and yellow. Yellow on the top and black on the bottom. Top has been sprayed, now time to wait and mask it off to spray the black.
mookie Posted July 31, 2011 Author Posted July 31, 2011 Quick update, black has been sprayed. i know the front fender has a smudge on it, I will try and fix it tommorow. I need to do something to those rims, im thinking yellow lip and a black and chrome spokes. Any ideas for the rims will be appreciated. Thanks
streetracer Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 looking nice, and i like the rims the way they are.
mookie Posted August 3, 2011 Author Posted August 3, 2011 Almost done. Interior updates, custom center console extending all the way to the back, and a big TV in the dash.
mookie Posted August 3, 2011 Author Posted August 3, 2011 90% done. I need to add some decals, interior is almost done, so is the exterior. I don't know why the pitures are smaller.
1320wayne Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 I think you went the right way with the rims to compliment the color scheme. Looks good so far.
