Nsx

Yo! always me, messing up stuff and starting again

in these two days, i started the front part of this car about 14 times,
and still cant guess the right shape, the problem is, im not doing this stock,
so there are no blueprints to use really, however, im really undecided,
the NSX is the same model, a few companies make a mod to get
the new headlights style (those not openalbe), in a old nsx, also,
there are various bodykits (wider), on top of that, there are different types
of quarter panel.

Now im about to start for the 15th time, but im still confused! so i was
wondering if some of u buds can give me a hand:

the red NSX with black rims as a gentle quarter panel

the red nsx with golden rims has old bumper&lgihts style (front with thin
direction lights cut in), a hard quarter panel, and a rear quarter panel
with the widening very high, almost at the top of the rear end

the white nsx has almost the same quarter panel of the red one, just
diff bumper, and new lights, the rear quarter panel has the widening thing
a lot lower than the red one

Now (i know its long to read, forgive me), i dont know which one to do!
all of these three look awesome to me, from the red&black rims i'd only
take the quarter panel, i really dunno which of the other two to pick,
old style headlights\bumper? or new? white bodykit, or red?

this is a super beauty car to me, and how hard it is is actually beyond me

thank you if you got read my poem, if i decide by today, tommorow will
post progress and so on ^^)

cheers

UNFINISHED but PRO ... hope U gonna FINISH "HER" someday

pozdro & good luck M8 ... & WAITING 4 FIRST PROGRESS PREVS

19th try.

still sucks, it has a few bumps, mainly because i toyed with vertexes
in the poor hope of getting the shapes right.

But to my disdain, the shapes are wrong, and i have to start from scratch,
again

nope, also because it would be very hard to get it in the exact
perspective without the rest of the car, and i can see its wrong anyways.
this is really hard to guess >.<)
