Just out of curiosity, where are you getting that the repop bodies are not holding up? The bluegroove for example are made of the same lexan that a few other major manufacturers use, and its plenty thick....so I'm a bit confused. The coyote repops he did for me are way better than the stock and have the same detail, however i cannot comment on any shrinkage

The zxs shell does look very good and will be better suited for your car. I use that shell on my zxs and zxr
Thanks for that info. Is the ZX-S undertray unique or the same as a ZX-R undertray?
I'm trying to have a different body on each of my builds if possible but it depends how many I build.
Anyhow I'm still waiting for fibrelyte to make my custom pieces, and some of the pieces I need to get anodised have been sent to them to get copied.

My first build will be the Turbo Optima Mid Special replica which I plan to start in a few weeks if the planets align
