TeamHT Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 if youre dead set on rice, just buy the kit. if you want to glass and something to experiment on go to craigslist, find body parts or interior panels and play around with those. first project i ever did was some old door panels for $10 on CL and then the first time i ever painted was on some old body panels. perfect for experimenting and getting into the hobby. attempting to glass a body kit form scratch is just....a horrible idea.

saltyshoelaces Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Posted October 17, 2010 yeah i looked for a kit to try that with but they dont make any for that car, or at least any that i could find. Quote [/img]
TeamHT Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 and for a good reason....lol. but Razzi makes a body kit. when a person comes to me dead set on rice, and they need help finding kits, i always use andysautosport.com. they have two razzi kits listed.

RMac18 Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 I checked AAS as well and noticed the 2 Razzi kits right away. If your set on making something, do like TeamHT suggested and pick up some spare parts(craigslist,junkyard, ect.) and start from those, that way if you screw up or something you'll have your stock ones still.

cmamtower Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 why body kit, it wont do anything at all for the car. make yourself some door panels or spend that money fixing dents/painting/straightening up interior. body kits are a waste of money imo Quote apparently you dont get the fact that the subaru was wrapped around a pole. and by the status of your comment, im guessing your mouth is too.
