Making custom body/lip kit?

Does anyone know any websites that include information on making your own kits? I plan on either making one myself or modifying one that I buy and want to know the molding process. I can't seem to find any information on the web.

this is not an easy task. I just did it and it was very very hard. I still have noe decided if it was all worth it.

I don't have final pics yet.
Front bumper fite the factory 2k2-2k3 grill and side markers. It also covers the entire sace in front of the radiador support.(sorry so large)



And the back bumper can use dual exhaust or single and it fits behind the grills in the back. Also fits the factory side markers.



Hood scoop was welded in and is NOT fiberglass, but all metal.




I will have pics of the car complete in a couple weeks.
