Sledsel Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Looks really good in those colors. Below the score line on the lower fender should be argent. That actually should be part of the valance. Just an FYI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubbs Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Yesterday I discovered that a local hobby shop carries Model Car World paint. Not just a few but, they have the rights for the paint. I mentioned the color I needed and he looked it up in the MCW book. It's not a special order color but not on the shelf either. I asked how long to get it in? Since it's not a SO a couple minutes! And then he went in the back, mixed the color and came back with this... Just like the old days at the body supply. James, i know i will forget to ask on thursday, what hobby shop sells that paint?

RDean58 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Great looking kit, but you are not quite done with the BMF. Along the top of the fins at the rear where the color separation is are some chrome trim. They can be seen in the picture below. The kit actually does have some very slight indications of this chrome molding on the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
