Hmmm what would I need? How hard are dimma panels to come by?

Dimmadesign.com think it's about 2.5k a kit though
think they was a guy in essex on facebook trying to sell a replica kit for £220. Obviously front would be the same then fun starts at the back Astor 6 Fast road/track project

Just a random idea I had when driving! Also trying to work out the rear. That would me a majorly custom job.

It would be made even harder by having rear doors as the arch extension usually starts just after the drivers door.
Guess it would look pretty cool if done properly, although I think a dimma sedan would be much more win

Could widen the doors but not sure if that would look silly or not. Oz do you still have dum dums sedan?

As said, I can imagine a dimma estate being a bit odd looking due to the rear doors, but a dimma sedan would be epic win in my books!

With a dimma estate it would be figuring out where to start pulling it out from and keeping shape and lines right.

Would look long, especially if you made it a single rear window. Would look very too hearsey.

I found some of the sedan on google too
Looks ok there bar the exhausts And i actually think this looks really good! But then i guess this happened?

there must be a way of making an estate wide body. the only way i can think is to go the pellow route and just stick huge wheel arch extensions on it.
have found this as inspiration though but i really dont like the wheel arch covering the rear door. Quote:(15:06:27) Toms306: Wd40d it and had a good tug, came straight off
In white the sedan is pure porn....

That sedan looks to be the only non hatchback dimma about. Though im not keen on the exhaust its the only time i think ill ever say M3 mirrors look good on a car.
Just wonder what drove the owner to paint it yellow and add that roof spoiler :\ That is an impreza spoiler right? quite tempted by one for my sedan now Maybe turning an estate into a 3 door, using the sides and rear windows of a 3 door car and blanking the estate rear windows to make a dimma like van might work? Can definitely see it may end up looking like a hearse if there was one large window
