I'll be following this build up. I need to get an idea of how hard it will be to make myself a body kit from my stocks and half of a different cars bumper... keep up the good work

Currently: Alpine 9813, Alpine MRD-M1005 and Alpine 12" Type X. Future Plans: Alpine MRV-F545, Focal for the front and Alpine Rs in the rear

Well that will depend on your experience with FG and ability to plan the project from beginning to end. If you are fairly to moderately experienced and are pretty good with planning, then you should not have many problems, but if you are new to FG or not very skilled at planning, I would not reccommend this project until you are familiar with how FG will cure in your area/environment. (ie shrinkage, distortion, etc)

If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to ask.

Well, the last few weeks I have been really busy, but I have squeezed in some time to work on the car. Not much to update as far as pictures go, but I have added several more layers to the fenders, and along the underside of the driver side sideskirt. I will be starting the passenger side sideskirt soon (probably this week).

The whole rust problem has kind of held me up the past few weeks as well. I need to start looking around to see who can weld in some new metal for me.
At some point I will be getting expanding foam and start to build the rear. I did a quick pic of what I kind of want the rear to look like. Comments appreciated.
