heres something new i've started. these are pics of the hood. the reason i showed this early progress was to show the people who don't believe that this is real hand made work and for those who never seen it before. by the next time i show this i'll have the hood done and the rear started. well heres the link. http://hometown.aol.com/aznstrtlegend/xmodhood.html

got kinda bored today so i decided to do some side work to my rsx. got some custom rims i made to fit on it. don't really matter if others done it before me. didn't actually need new rims but i need new tires. the tires that came with it would always come off. so i decided to get i from my revell integra. personally i think its a lot better and more realistic. the tires hasn't come off yet. the down side is that i only have one set of 4 tires. and the other thing i did was the springs. if you look closely theres a silver spring inside the blue ones. no clue if it gives it any increase in performance. i hope to clean it up this week and get it ready to be painted. i'll still be working on the front/rear bumper and hood. other than that i think its gonna be finished in a couple more months. might do some side work to it so that it'll have better performance. http://hometown.aol.com/aznstrtlegend/customrims.html

yes i got the rims from a revell integra. the only difference was that i painted it black. its actually pretty easy to make it fit and spin like the regular ones. all i used for this was a round file,
x-acto knife and a dart. i just forced the dart into the back of the rim and made a small hole. take he x-acto knife and scrape the inside so that the hole would be bigger. use the round file and file the hole bigger. make sure to keep testing it to see if it fits on perfectly.just has to be tight enough so it won't seem loose. hmmm.... and your problem with it spinning with the car....you might have overtighten the nut when you put the wheel back on. not sure if that actually help you out but you could just instant message me on my aim if you want me to help you out better. my sn is aznstrtlegend

I see you didn't use the hood you sculpted. Why not?
