Default I wont ever finish anything at this rate

heres what i've been workin on lately.
had a spare guard laying around, figured i'd have a stab at modifying some metal :P
before anyone says anyhting, its nothing like the VZ/VE ones (i checked)

Here it is on the car making sure it'll actually look 1/2 decent.

then i removed the filler as i changed my mind on it and where it is at today.

i think it will look ok because your car is a darkish green, and it wont stand out like dogs balls. on a lighter coloured car it wouldnt look right

looking a bit rough now, but will probably look good when done, how many people are going to copy this design from your car? like with the BA kit
