My Perodua Kancil : Chromaworks Sidewinder

[kennyyeoh]

Hey zth ppl

This is a project i have worked on for nearly 7 months now, this was my first car then and for 14 long years i had waited to seriously project this car to my liking. Its nothing extreme, but isnt entirely mild either. I wanted a street look, keeping it as base model as possible.

the initial ride was beat up as hell, one day i just sat down and worked on my drawing board for 2 long days to come out with the look i always longed for.

here's the picture before i started the project last year (dec 09)

yeah thats what a 14 year old look like, especially after 4 year abandoned.

so 1 day i after i plonk in the L5 engine, i had trouble with the idling... went searching for spark plaug and ended up at Monster Garage (then) ... had a long chat with Vincent, the owner.... showed him my design, and 1 month later we started the project...

This was the result after a long gruesome 6 month of hardwork ...

now officially the shop has relabelled as GT Proshop,

anyway i would take this opportunity to thank both GT Proshop for their sheer professionalism on the build-up, especially chief builder Wah and Wah Hooi Paintshop for the excellent workmanship on the final touches...

it feels good to get so many thumbs up everytime i drive this baby out..

its been a week since i collected the car, now i want to hear comments on the actual product from you guys out there...

thanks for your time

hehe yeah, its part of the original RV4 bumper, so i decided to keep it unique as the bumper is such rare item, if i customed it then it might be the only one...Thanks!

Im planning on more detailed photoshoots on later dates as i just got it back a week, theres still a lot of touches to be done...even the photos i posted was taken by my handphone hehehe... will post as soon as i get em, keep watching this space ....Thanks!

Chun!. love seeing ppl still love the older versions of current cars!

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Must really salute you for actually having wheels that FIT the widebody unlike 99.99% of Malaysian ricers my God, they must be retarded to get the body then the wheels only :stupid:

Your wheels fit so well with the arches! Im guessing spacers? They dont look that wide...

well thats where i had to work very closely with the fabricators, for more than 2 months which i nearly inspect the car everyday, explaining, and sometimes even hands on.. the arch was built around the wheel, so its as close as i can get then, but currently im running on safe height, tyres are streched out on my 16inchr with a 7j and spacer ....are you ready for this?..... 2.5in or 75mm with center cone support

here's some new pictures

another angle from the above set

while at the wash this morning. man it looks good when its clean... but bummer its raining already...

wheel fitment as for now

here you can see the spacers.. kinda ridiculous looking dont you agree?

sorry for the sloppy pics as all were taken from my trusty camera phone... no chance to DSLR yet, will update as soon as i get some...

and to all, thanks for the compliments

nice bodykit u hv^^

 

[BLANk]

was the rear tire stretched???

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

You did your car at monster garage right? I think I saw it a few months back with its fenders chopped off, ahaha. Looks so familiar...

 

[hachiroku clan]

is that what they call 'hippari' or something? i mean the stretch tires..

 

[palen_22]

if ur thinking of getting a spoiler,
alto works should be nice...
anyway, awsome job man

 

[DanzEterna]

the nicest kancil ever seen...how much u spend for the total costs?

 

[kennyyeoh]

nice bodykit u hv^^

Thank you! :)

was the rear tire stretched???

yes the tires stretched both on the front and back, and yeah they call that hippari (I just found out bout that word a minute ago...hheheh)

Yup, now theyre called GT Proshop.. had kinda a long journey there, but its all worth it...

if ur thinking of getting a spoiler,
alto works should be nice...
anyway, awsome job man

hey palen, thanks for the suggestion, i reckon the altoworks youre referring to would be the Suzuki Altoworks.. i googled it and yeah would look good on this car, but for now id stick to errr... the softie look, dun wan to get others tailgating me...hhhehe now if dont look properly will think the car is a stock kancil...anyway its in my list if i decide to go that way, thanks!

the nicest kancil ever seen...how much u spend for the total costs?

Danz... wow thats kinda flattering.. i dun dare say that its the nicest, but id say the most factory looking mod, well according to most ppl who see's the car. As per the day i revived the machine ive downed 5k on the motor and almost 10k on the exterior.. still planning on my interior built up.

anyway here's some of the early draw-up on the the sidewinder and some built up pictures then

the concept drawing for the project - pretty damn close to the finish project id say

the built at 15%

the built at 65% completion

the built at 80% completion

 

[DanzEterna]

but seriously its nice bro...honest comment...cos ive seen alot of kancil's
on the road wid L2/L2s L5/L5s bodykits......so its abit common...for yours its
something unique....

 

[BLANk]

yea...i hippari~~~~

 

[arturo]

i agree with Danz...the BK suits the car and the rims suits everything...if i never seen a kancil b4...i'd think it's a proto for a new car.

how much did u spent in total for the whole makeover?

how did u convey yr BK concept to the bodyshop?
