What do you guys think about the fenders on this concept car from Audi, its the one from the movie I Robot. What do you think of the closed wheel wells. Do you think its possible to make these on my celica? Any ideas, suggestions,

i think it looks kickass on the audi but it probably wouldnt look as good on the celica. plus you couldnt really cover the wheel wells in front since it extends out when u turn. another thing is that wheel cover goes all the way to the ground, it wouldnt handle ANY type of incline. isn't that audi supposed to have ball type wheels? cuz i think it goes sideways too. plus it spins in place.

Im not talking about making the car. Just some simple body modifications. Like the fenders in the back. I wish i could draw well. If anyone can draw can u maybe make up a sketch or something. Im gonna try to draw a sketch. I wanna do soemthing with the rear wheel well.

wow thats one hot body kit on the tt. But I think it wouldnt be as nice as u might think, and would be a lot of work. and i mean a lot. also i think it would only realy be worth doing if your doing a lot of show stuff, otherwise maybe get screwed up or not look right.

Its not a TT its a audi concept car.

it does have ball wheels, they spin any direction (this is posible to do if you have megnetic strips in the wheel and a positive and negative stip on each side of the wheel well, where on pushed the strip away, and the other pulls it (makes it spin, and posible to reach very high speeds, turns would be tricky but do-able) (similar to a monorail system)

that car looks so hot, I though about covering the wheels on mine too after i saw that movie, then just using really nice tires on stock rims (cant see em anywa)

It is posible to cover the frunt wheels but it just has to bulge out enough so that at max turn it does not rub, , but you will have one heck of a time changing a flat. and will have to make the back the same or it will look really off.

Edit: thanks for the pic, its my new background.

Yea i thought about the wheels even before the movie came out. But i would need to make the covers clip on or something, but i have nbo clue how to do it yet. Im going to make a model of it first and see how it looks.

they can make the front wheels turn less and have 4 wheel steering... kinda like those 94 preludes and new chevy trucks..

therefore they can cover up the front wheels with less of a bulge.

I see that its a concept now, but they took the same liness from the tt, or used that as a base.
