dinochips Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 Will upload a couple photos of the making of little custom item I made So lokking at the front of many civic I grow to really like the look of front bumper canards. after doing research found the prices for a little bit of shaped carbon fiber are ridiculous. Sooo I decided to make my own started off by making some cardboard ones to get the profile of the front bumper once I had a near enough shape I was looking for a photographed it and traced theprofile in CAD and managed to smooth the edges off. This then allowed me to laser cut the profiles I would use as a stencil.I then ordered a sheet of 2mm Carbon fiber already cast which I can then used to cut up. Once cut up into the correct profile I bought some tasty little 90 degree brackets from B&Q which will allow me to fit the to the front of the car after I epoxey'd them on will upload the final photos in a sec my internet is rubbish tonight 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So after along time with my team dynamics I decided it was time to move forward and get a completely new unique look to the car. So after much saving and an deciding I choose A baad neew set of Rota's After deciding to get 16's i also need new tyres so hooed myself up with Maxxi's MAZ1's So new rims and new tyre's to be honest im just going to cut to the chase and give you guys my new look I decided to go back to my MB6 kits as vti's didn't suit my car as im sure most of you would agree. I also had a problem rolling my rear arches which now needs the attension of some body filler and a respray which did annouy loads but i will get it fixed. Carbon fiber carnards all fitted aswell the car now looks like this hope you guys approve I will have to get some good phot's for you this weekend as I should have the last mod arrive fo the front end but hope you guys like the car I no I do and its only going to keep getting better 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
