ok, not being satisfied with the results of the front bumper shortening in comparison to the rear, i had to fix the front even more

it's so close it's almost euro

the bad...

the better...

the best!!...

and as they say for models.. a body shot


i also took an extra nylon shifter base piece to make an extension for the shifter unit to shorten the throws... but it hits the console... aRG! i also found out how to start it, it's like a carb'd vehicle almost

half throttle as ya crank and it fires right away. no throttle and it chokes out.... real sucky. i'm gonna be taking the car home this week and working on getting it more road ready and legal so i can soon tear my 4kq apart and still have a fun ride
