i think a coupe would have been the better chioce for this project.
race optik > rear wing > convertible no go

race optik > rear wing > coupe yes

but we have to wait and see what it is the finish

FWIW....
His intent is to produce a kit that can be used on either coupe of roady.

....Roady FTW

(+1 on the wing... not a fan for either car)

Hi guys/girls! Im happy you like the project! I really appreciate all your comments!...Cuz of all the nice comments I will post updating pics right now weehooo

...

Here is some progress of the back end and the Diffuser is already in progress! Ofcourse it's not going to look this "steely" thay are going to do the forms from that diffusor then it's in glassfiber, So the diffuser postiion is a lil off and so but it's just testing for now!:

Ok here we go

:

Hawkeye · 02-29-2008, 01:34 PM

Nice. I just hope the diffuser isn't so pronounced. I never did like the look fo the ones that are noticable from the side of the car.

ianbiz · 03-01-2008, 08:21 AM

I'm not a big fan of that diffuser. However, its coming along nicely.

GTAutoConcepts · 03-03-2008, 12:05 AM

so damn cool. are you planning to repaint completly?

fantasticz4 · 03-15-2008, 09:54 AM

Another weekend and some more pictures! =)

l_taylor: Thanks mate! Yes im going to repaint completly so new bodykit = new cooler paint

here we go:

Palantirion · 03-15-2008, 12:43 PM

Looking really good man! I'm also following your neighboring M5 GTR build on m5board. I'm glad you are leaving the doors stock. One problem with TCK's CF body kit is that you can install it in pieces because he widened the doors too, so every piece needs the adjacent ones. The only thing your widebody definitely needs is a proper rear diffusor cutout. Maybe you're already working on that, I forget.

Are your finished panels going to be fiberglass or CF?

sales@ESSTuning · 03-15-2008, 12:54 PM

Again great work

I love to see original concepts come together.

Can you add a link for the M5 project ??

Looking good. Is it cracking on the side?

Thanks man! Oh I didn't know he was on the M5board that's sweet, and that m5 is going to look really sweet when it's done!

Yeah the doors will be stock I think it's better that way, and so the trunk.

Yeah the diffusor is going to a cosmetic operation ;D.. and it will not go out so far as the pictures show, it's going to line up with the mufflers.

The finishing panels is going to be fiberglass, CF is way to expensive for my wallet unfort.

Thanks everybody for the feedback really appreciate it!

Well this is not 100% anywhere cuz this is not the panels that is going to be on my car, this is just the forms. So when they are ready there will be no cracking or something else then it's going to be 100% ready for paint

fantasticz4 · 03-15-2008, 01:41 PM

this is the m5 gtr we talking about:
