Re: Large Car Limo
 

is that kw 8 bag suspension I see? cool lookin stuff!

on the upside of this, it only needs to be about 143hp to be true 1/14 scale! lol

Re: Large Car Limo
 

got my fenders in today from Stylin n profilin and they look great. now i just need to mount them up and come up with an idea for the head lights. i'm wanting to do a KW with a custom hood. i may put the head lights in the bumper? not sure yet :confused:

for the paint job, its going to be all black with green real fire down the hood :D
i'll have to find a painter for that....
