wide bodykit, as it says wide bodykit Options

[deathdoakill]

Well either you love the idea or hate it but as always my buddy bet me i couldnt do it so here i am fabricating again. Ive never been one for widebodykits but ehhh its something to do lol and as always ttheres money involved lol.

Keep in mind these are just test fitment are not intended as finished product and need alot of work an when done will look completely different when finished


Stage1
The test fit
Weellll idk if im going through with this next design I want opinions dont say dont do it lol need feed back





Ill post nor pics as I progress guys let me know wut u think



Stage2
Wode body fabrication

[deathdoakill]

Personaly i think it looks to bubly from the front so i will be fixing this soon. So it doesnt look so off i like the side viuw so far but neeeeddss wrk ^_^

[Johnnyny]

a lil too wide imo or maybe ur wheel/tires make it look dat way

[SoundSlut_dotcom]

[deathdoakill]

Same old, geten the celi ready for the summer.. how's everything?

[jordisonjr]

I think it looks pretty good right now.
Would look super sick with a flush fitment

[deathdoakill]

Eehh good enough working working an more working its finally looking up me my new partner are gonna be opening up a full fleged shop with an paint and body section as well an we finally decided to do the 2jzgte engine swap so after were all ready to go an im done painting the 3 cars ive got waiting im gonna start rolling forward with it lol my buddy wants to thrgh a 502 chevy engine it. But idk about that one lol

[deathdoakill]

Jord an yeah i love the look from the side but gotta do some more work to bring things up to my standards so everything looks smooth an like its supposed to be there

[CelicaHD2]

Something for a bit of inspiration...photo-chopped but looking sweet:

[mgnt232]

cant wait to see ur finished project After im done with all the 3s stuff on my new one, im going crazy on my orange celi's exterior! hopefully it comes out great, and ill steal some of ur ideas
but its lookin good man

[SupraKid]

This isnt really a wide body, it just has over sized horrible looking fender flares. A wide body is actually using metal and widening the lines of the car, not just sticking fiberglass on and filling in the gap with foam and bondo.

[deathdoakill]

Lol kool yeah how ur idea with the foam go did the info help at all. Lol thanks hd 2 good stuff good stuff

[deathdoakill]

Well thats where your wrong im definetly not filling gaps with foam an bondo thats not how i do things the fenders and rear quarter panels are coming out about 2 more inches than the original body and the fenders are being completely fabricated out of fiber glass and seporated from the original i dont know where u got ur info from but you couldnt be more wrong on that the wide body portion of this has not quite started yet read the post before making statements like that one an another thing the part about using metal for that purpose that is one way i guess but not the only

[deathdoakill]

And as i said this only test fitting so far not what the finished product will look like

[NYp8tBaller07]

Can't wait to see what you do with this, full kits aren't my thing but I like wide bodys, keep at it =)

[mak5603]

Way too wide for me, and not a fan of the over exaggerated fender flares.

I'd be down for like 25mm wide body in the front and 35mm in the back...nothing more though. Gotta be able to fit wheels otherwise it looks ridiculous.

Looking good though, you are very good at customization. I would love to see a clean wide body kit available for people looking for a more aggressive Celica.

edit: I like the blue car above, something like that would be sweet.

If your pulling the METAL on the fenders out 2" then why do you have the god awful flares on there? My "info" comes from the pictures you posted of a stock body celica with fender flares taped on... Or are these flares just a mold for fiberglass?Again in which case its not a real "widebody.

THIS is how a real widebody is built:

Notice the lack of masking tape and fiberglass.

[deathdoakill]

Yeah im using the oe ones to make a mold for the wider fenders with flares but flares still need to be reworked and cut im not happy with the look but a work in pregress is a work in progress
