RX2.8 (RX2 Sheet Metal Front Clip WANTED)



Greetings,
We are working on a modern tribute to the RX2. Originally we were going to base the project on a RX3, but the available resources aesthetically lend themselves to the RX2 vs the RX3. The Suspension is based on a RX8. I completely removed the inner and outer body panels of the RX8. The RX8 has retained the floor and firewall, the floor has been narrowed in order to mate to the donor body. The rendering above shows a Civic roof and doors with RX3 features, but since then we elected to celebrate the RX2 instead. I am very surprised how well a Harbor Freight spot weld cutter works.










After seeing what Rocket Bunny did with the RX3 Boss FD and seeing THEBUZ RX2 from Australia, I feel we chose our donor body wisely.






Ultimitly I am in the market for these sheet metal parts.
