Cool Mold question ?

When they place side skirts on your car or fenders like the 15th anny ones....do they mold them to the car with other bits of fiber glass.

Show some pics if you guys have any...please.

It's basically up to you.. crashunit has his molded.. but it all depends on who molds them for you... his is actually mint and hasn't cracked... I've had it done on my previous integra.. and it cracked.. maybe coz i'm in NY and he's in LA.... You don't have to mold it..

Actually here is a link to a site of how my car looks now, all my previous pics of the car when it was dark blue were on the forum gallery (Jason?)... So you'll have to wait on those....

And here is a link to some pics and a write up on my car before:

As far as molding goes, its a long a painful process which you need a lot of patience with, the best tools and materials you can get, and it doesn’t hurt to have one of the best body shops around to help you with it either , its really expensive to do correctly, unless you have hook ups or sponsorships, but if you want to know specific things, you can PM me, There is just too much to say.

Hey Crash! I just realised that the 2 pics I posted at the top of this thread are your car. I recognise the garage. O and by the way I love the lights on the bumber...nice effect man.

You wouldant happen to have a nother copie of that pic of your car in front of the garage would you....(A BIGER ONE) perhaps. I'd like to put it on my wall paper.

I've decide not to mold mine fully like yours is now. But what I will do when I get the kit is mold the front fender to the GTC bumber just so that it looks like it was made that way and not stuck on.

Thanks for all the pics of you fine..(DAM FINE) kick *** machine.

Regards
ICE
