Re: How do you
Artistry, Skill, Patience.
Custom would be cool, but hard. Its probably not something you want to do.
Fiberglass?

Re: How do you
Wood or metal too
If you're good, carbon fiber
And there's the high-performance cardboard body kits.
First, you have to have a creative mind to design one. Sketch it on paper or computer, whatever, but design one from scratch none the less.
Secondly, you need to know HOW you need to build it, form the shapes and work with the material you're making it out of...as well as know how to work with the tools that you'll need to work on the material.
Honestly, I can't even think of an analogy to explain what your asking for, but in the end, basically, if you don't even know the basics of how to even start and what's involved, your not even close to being able to do it.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Re: How do you
i have a "how to" for ya, its called "how to remove a GS lip, NO TOOLS REQUIRED!!"
step 1 - wake up 430AM, this is a MUST! its extremely dark out, and a dark country road is usually required.
step 2 - grab a freshly brewed Tim Hortons coffee, double double is reccomended.
step 3 - *VERY IMPORTANT* crank your stereo to MAX, you didnt think the coffee would wake you up, did ya?!
step 4 - find a nice straight, dark and desserted, but paved, backroad.
step 5 - cruise steadily at 140km/hr..pretend your late for work, thats what i did..
step 6 - drive with just your normal head lights on for a bit, now realise that you have highbeams, duh arent you awake yet?!
step 7 - change your cd,radio station, what have you...i chose to change the radio station....
step 8 - look up...geeze watch the road you idiot your supposed to be driving...
Now if this works for you, like it did me, there should be a massive racoon running into your lane.
in order to work properly, you must get the racoon with both tires...and because of their big fury coat they wont bleed on your ride.
*please note* individual results may vary.
pics coming soon...
