True xmod exterior modification final pics on pg 4!!
I finally got started on my body modification which is gonna change the way xmod is right now. So far it has a rear wide bodykit on the left side. Still need to do the fenders, hood and the front and rear bumpers. Gotta do a lot more sanding to make it smooth. I'll keep you guys updated. (still don't know if I should keep the wide bodykit, let me know if you like it or not.) http://hometown.aol.com/eckoballa2k3/xmod.html

thanx
Thanks for the replies. I just added a new pic but the quality of the pic isn't that good compared to the others. It shows that it still needs more work on it.
Jon.Jon-Why would you want to make a WBK for your skyline when it has one?(well its pretty small.)

Sweetness.
Did you have to hand-sculpt it, or is there a mold you're using? It must be a pain to have to match congruent parts on each side if you're doing it manually.

Its all done by hand. It's pretty easy to make each side symmetrical.(I've been doing this for a while. On my other models.) I don't know if you guys remember me from back then. I had a post that I was going to have something very crazy comming. But it turned out to be more of a dissing post on me and my friend that the moderator closed it from having replies. Also on that tutorial suggestion......sorry I'm too lazy. I decided to make a Buddy Club 2 front and mayber the rear also.

so making the track a foot long would be better? all you'd need is some longer dogbones.

everything else is only little paintjob or a body change from like a mini z or just a aftermarket bodykit that you can just buy from radioshack. mine is one of the kind which seperates it from everyone else here.

Nice job! Turn the wheels backward and/or add some washers to the front and rear axles to widen out the wheel base.
