Hi

So for years I have wanted to make fender flares and a body kit for my car like the ones I saw in Ron Fournier's book decades ago.

The car I want to inflict this on is an 1989 Alfa Romeo Milano, sold in the USA from 1986 to 1989 and in rest of the world(ROW) till 1992 as the Alfa 75.

The Milano/75 is a kind of square boxy car, and the body kit I want to make will mostly be similar to the car's existing lines but punched out.

In truth, the look I'm going has already being done by the factory racecars and some of the factory homologation specials. You can buy plastic and fiberglass body kits for the car, but they are purely cosmetic. They don't provide clearance for wider tires, or a wider track, and none of them come with a hood scoop.

So I'm going to try and bang out this stuff out myself. I'll post some pictures as soon as I'm approved.

Bye

P.S. I'm located in a large swamp/marshland called Houston Texas.
