JamesW Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Thanks guys. It was a pretty quick build for me, about 6 weeks. I've got a sister planned for her, another stepside, but in Graphite Dust with Pegasus T's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Winter Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I'd also love to know how the lights were done aswell as where you got the Flamed grill inserts. Nick BTW it looks great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesW Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Here's a quick tutorial for the grille/headlights. I completely hollowed out the grille. Dechromed and painted. Then used a piece of sheet plastic as the backing. Drilled holes and used aluminum tube for the lights. Used some glue inside the tubes, then painted them, Blue for the headlights and amber for the marker/turn signals. If I had taken a little more time I would have used pins and painted the pin heads to represent bulbs. Then used clear sheet plastic for the lenses. Nick, the grille is from Model Car Garage. http://stores.scaledreams.com/-strse-Model-Car-Garage-cln-Grilles/Categories.bok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
