    Custom Body Kit/Shaved Antenna *Pics*

    I shaved the antenna and finished the back bumper. I'm finally happy with the back bumper. That was alot of sanding.
    Gotta get working on the side and the front bumper pretty soon. Only got 1 month to finish the body kit install and get it ready for paint.

    I'm probably gonna go with SS hood after I am done with the body kit. What other hood might look good with the predator body kit?

                Looks good man. I probably missed them at some point in the past, but what're the details with the body kit? Is it fully custom, or are you adapting it from another car's kit?

                Either way, awesome work!

                  Its hard to see in those pics but when you get the kit, Its like in 12 different pieces. if you look closely, you could see the seams. I didnt want whole bunch of seams between the body and body kit so, I just molded it on there with 3M Automix. I molded the kit on to the bumper and I plan on molding the side body kit onto the fenders and doors.

                  Edit:
                  heres a better pic of what the bumper is supposed to look like.

                  See all the seams? Mine doesnt have them cuz I molded it on there. I like my car smooth and shaved like I like my women smooth and shaved. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

                    I just took the antenna out and welded a plate where the hole was and smoothed it out with bondo. Its not still perfect yet. I think it warped the metal when the plate got welded on there :(
                    Makes it 10x harder to make it perfect.

                        no wht I mean is what are you using for an antenna for your radio. where did you move it to or did you just get rid of it all together.

                          Ive heard that people put XM sat. antenna's in the spoiler. just open it up and stick a wire antenna in there. wont be the best quality, but it'd still be a usable radio. just an idea
