wow! that's a really nice one. i really like how the light buckets turned out. suggest to use the bodypost extenders from hpi, so they don't poke out from the body that much.

Any idea how they look like and where I can get them? you can get them from winnie's or taising (think bryant has a similar product but from another brand); well basically you cut/shorten your existing bodypost, then put on these bodypost extenders over it. the tip is rounded so it looks better. maybe later i'll post a pic or 2.

jd, here are some pics of the HPI bodypost extenders : basically you put the extenders "over" the existing bodypost, and use a clip to secure it at the correct height : how it looks after you put on the bodyshell; looks much better than having the long bodypost imo

Thanks a million for Alex, Zhirong and Alistair for the help Its Alastair BTW!!! lol thanks for the credentials even tho I dunno what I did to help... ;D Whoops d**n and i checked ur namecard again before i typed... Must have been too blur early in the morning... Thanks for all the compliments guys! Sure makes my start of 2007 a good one! The light buckets were made from blue foam and sanded down and painted... Any guesses for the material used for the light holders...? I used 'po chai pill' and '5 pagoda lao sai' bottle caps hahaa... Think i suggested b4 in the 'light buckets' forum so tried it this time . I juz tried on my 10mm offset Gunmetal 37Rs and I think they make the civic look more muscular... Wadaya'll think?

EG rocks!!! Should bring lower the shell by using 0mm offset wheels with pvc tyres... this machine drifts like a dream in the low profile manner. Just my 2 cents.
