ok, so maybe ive done other projects, but these are the only ones i have pictures of.. i started out by trying to add some vinyl to my GF's door inserts. that failed miserably ( too many compound curves for a beginner), so i decided to Fiberglass them smooth .. personally i dont like it this way cause its uncomfortable, but she likes it, and its her car, thats what matters right ;)

here are some pics of that.. (p.s.) this was my first project, and could have had some things done differently i know..
Note: the panels used to be ALL tan, so i bascially made the entire interior black and red for her... seats and carpet is next..

the sides and rear were wingswest, so i didnt bother posting too many photos on that, the major work was creating the front lip, it was taken from an integra type R , 5-6 incles were taken out of the middle front and about 5 inches on each side were added to the sides so it would reach to the wheel well...

i think it flows nicely with the car, and moulded really nice...

Comments and suggestions for next time more than welcome (positive or negative)

Next: Custom trunk enclosure :D i really wanna try this out.. i have ideas in my head, just gotta put them to paper, then to practical

the sides were just extended with more FG so they would reach teh wheel well, they were coming up short.

the wheels are not stock, just some 15's shes running for now... she plans on getting 17";s in the spring
