Step by step pics are included in the link at the top of this post....these guys are serious wizards when it comes to body work, foam and filler.

They should have left it as an extremely good looking NSX, as opposed to a car that screams "look at me, I'm a knock-off".

The front bumper of the original red car looks good. Is it aftermarket?

Painful, just painful. Enzo AND Dino are both rollin' over. If you are gonna build a poser might as well start with something cheap as a base, why ruin a NSX? You can get serious HP out of the NSX engine BUT it will never, I repeat NEVER sound like a Ferrari. Hard to fake something the average 8 year old car enthusiast can shut his eyes and tell is a fake.

Well said. Positive rep for you. I, too, find it absolutely rediculous.
