Thanks! I certainly looked to your build for inspiration. I had to have one as well. If you are able to use them,I would be glad to send you a section of the decal sheet. Just PM me your address.

Is this it? They have sizes down to a 1/16th. https://www.cableorganizer.com/metal-braided-sleeving/

I completed most of the chassis. The real car is in pretty good shape with only a bit of road dust so that's what I replicated. I used the dirt from the Rustall set. I still need to scratch build the exhaust,fuel system,and rear shocks but I am waiting on an order of styrene to arrive. Traction bars are from the Baldwin Motion Camaro kit.

Got some interior work completed.The seats have black/white houndstooth so I would need some decals to replicate this. I didn't want to pay the $17 for a sheet from Scale Motorsports so I decided to try making my own. As luck would have it ,I had a pack of decal paper from a decade ago. Thankfully it still worked! My computer skills are less than stellar so the best I could manage was to shrink and repeat an image I found online. It looks to be a bit large in scale but i liked it. I sprayed the base white and taped it off for the decal inserts. I sprayed the whole affair with matte clear at the end. I also removed the factory console and filled it in with epoxy. The flocking covered everything up nicely.

I almost always use auto touch up paint by Duplicolor. I get better results with those vs hobby enamels.

Great idea. I need one to keep my kids from "playing" with my cars when I am not around.

Centerline Convo pro wheels?
KENNEDYJR replied to KENNEDYJR's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
THANKS!!!! Those look much better. -
Does anyone else make a similar product? I have a set of the Comp resins but the width/backspacing is not right for the project. I will cut them up and modify if need be though. Just wondering if there was a better option out there. I want to build a model of my current project car.
