Thanks

The body kit is made of polyester and glassfiber. I used pipes in different sizes and some wood to create the mould.

Here are some pics of them with LED lights.

Time for a small update. The bodykit and stereo was finished in late november. We scored fourth in the swedish finals.

Since then, I started on a rebuild of the bodykit. This time we bought a kit that supposed to fit on an Subaru Impreza, and adjust it to the 360. It´s a lot of work...
At this time, the rear is almost done. The taillights are Lexus-style VW Vento, and the headlight are BMW E-36.

The plan is to finish the body and repaint it before march 21:th, when the first competition takes place.

First, a pic of the car in november:

I´ll be back with an update when it´s done in about a mounth.

Yeah those headlights look surprisingly fantastic.
That car's seriously unique, and you've obviously put in some huge amount of work.

By the look of it I'd say a fair bit of work. You can see they are wider so mods are going to be needed.

This car is something

Thanks everybody

It´s a lot of work, but the Subaru kit fit better than i expected.
BMW headlights is not a bult on product. They are about five cm wider than original, so the springs to the hood is removed. I also had to wide the front four cm per side. There are also some welding and adjustment to the sides to make place fore the indicators.
Tonight I start modifiing the front

Regards

Jon
