i know how

i know an way to make stuff lighter for body kits. it came up on accident. i was trying to take the paint of a clone body. i used nail polish remover. it lift stains though and i wanted to do interior paints. so i soaked it in the nail polish remover, but i forgot about it and when i remember it after 30 mins or so it was super messed. i thought about posing it but it came out weird. anyways it was super soft and moldable. any ways all i did was cut the part of a car that seemed straight and fit the body semi good. then i molded it to the car and make it look ok. then i harden it with a hair drier. it was still messed up because the plastic had melted some. anyway when it harded so it was like normal, i used a really fine sandpaper and i smoothed it out. then filled in the gaps with multiply light layers of superglue. so the pieces were really light because it was made of a stock plastic. anyways i fixed it up so it was smooth and fit the car then i uses supergule to stick it onto the body then painted it so it was nice.
