i was wondering wut would be the best method of fabricating a widebody kit for a 2004 civic LX coupe...i want to make it look somewhere along the lines of this but without an overexpense...like using a full carbon fiber body which is like $300k...a friend of mine had told me to find a slightly older 2003 or previous year which has been crashed and take the fenders off of that and cut/mold/weld them onto my current civic for a wide body...






something that looks like these cars...if i can than i wanna make my civic pretty much a circuit racing car with a K20A2 swap turbo etc...

wow, that's really wide. I don't know how good that would look on our cars. But that's JMO

yea i thought it would be of some challenge to come up with a widebody that wide...when i first saw a GT car i fell in love with it...i've made a few pencil drawings while in class but bringing it to life would be extremely hard...but it looks awesome in the drawings
lol

I doubt there would be a best method.. the only way I see that you could do it is what you just said.. cut, mold, weld. It won't be cheap though.. and you really have to know what you are doing and have the time to do it. I would imagine you would also have to have other custom things like longer axels for example.. Let's see the drawings..

Kinda like this?? This is the COBB Tuning WRX. Ive met this guy, he has the wheelbase widened about 6 inches & it just looks awesome. Of course this is a full blown road course/autoX car, & completely owned everything on the track when I saw it.


Actually, from looking at it, maybee he just has some insanely deep dish rims, like some Kodiaks or something.

Hey when yu figure out how yo do it start selling kits and make a group buy....lol

Making a wide body will be possibly, but damn there will be alot of work to do, Mold and cuting, and after that you need wider rims so it will look good, the best method is just taking it to a a good reputation body shop and let them handle this, but if you know what ur doing, then go for it, I thought about this at one time but decide not to cause it will be expensive,

i have possible connections with a good welding shop...so in about 2-3 years ill have it done...lol...once i do get it done ill copyright the body and sell it

possibly mod this kit?? i'm not really a fan of the front bumper but the rest of the kit is nice!

that is one nice kit, and yea not digging that front

There is a widebody qurter pannel skin out for our cars but its not that wide though. I'll be installing mine next winter (no more time before this show/track season)

im more of looking into fabricating side fenders which go along with the hood of the car...like in the pics in my first post

not just a side fender wheel well job but more like a full body like this
