Ferrari 240sx Conversion C-pillar Question?

[f1nch]

Anybody know how they did the rear quarter glass/C-pillar on this ferrari kit..

im not too fond of the kit but if you could make the rear quarter glass/ c-pillar similar to an S15, the S15 front end would look bad ass on a s13 fastback

[ZX88]

probably just vinyl

[Suk02Si]

Paint

[layedoutat0psi]

looks like vimyl or painted. you can see that the window looks liek its still there. its deff a diff car tho.

[rainier]

looks like paint or a thick overlay.

[heyitzalan]

that is ugly

[f1nch]

hmm.. paint or vinyl looks about right. Thats cheezey though.

It would be cool to maybe fab up some sheet metal and a custom glass/molding to make a similar window/pillar for an S15 conversion..

get to it guys.

LOLLLLLL

[frosty_the_iceman]

OT, but that's a horrible waste of Agle Minervas.

My money's on vinyl, look how thin it is. Search google for the fiberglass Fairlady Z style quarter window cover for comparison.

This is wrong for so many infinite reasons

it's like devolving back into APC 1992 days

[opponheimer]

That is so gay so so gay. Except for the wheels..

[vietdetta]

I've seen covers made for the quarter windows for fastbacks on ebay awhile back... I have pictures.... let me find it real quick.

You're SO rite!!

Its not paint, paint doesn't really like to adhere to glass, so its probably vinyl.

trying to mimic the rear window line of an s15, using this method, would look terrible. Respect the lines of the s13, or keep saving for an s15.

very true....but it was just an idea

yea i found em on ebay.. pretty cool cuz theyre different but theyre a little rice tastic too.

That z pillar kit doesnt look half that bad when painted. I would like to see what it looks like further away.

[projekt_s13]

Search for z pillars on ebay. The one on that car looks like vinyl, but some company makes fiber glass ones. They look ok on some cars.

EDIT found some pix of them

Those look EXACTLY like mustang C-Pillars... like 96-00 or whatever.

they're too long to actually be mustang pillars, but yeah, i see it. the bullitt pillars are cooler though (much like every change on the bullitt)


and the car in the first post looks like a rotting bag of dicks

[vietdetta]

^ damn got the pics faster than I did. lol

[WagDatto]

Those wheels are fucking ill... Other than that, I've never been a fan of the big, split front bumpers and crazy-stupid low body kits. But they got the wheels spot on.

[ripnbst]

S15 front end looks badass on hatchback S13's without all this excess rice, come on people.

[jspec240]

I auctually like the damn thing!!! I just think the front looks like shit.. great job on the rear. fucken turn signals look like it got in a wreck and got pushed up lol

rant

90% of the s15 conversions i see are shitty, ill fitting (not the good kind of "ill") cheap knockoff "conversion kits" that have terrible fitment, and are usually really ugly.

now if you spent the 3-5k on a good conversion (new headlights from clearcorners that actually WORK, good quality aero, metal fenders, and a quality hood...) it'll look great. but.. hardly anyone has the $$ to do this, so most look like crap.

end rant.

but back to the topic at hand. We're discussing the rear windows.
