Hey. A good friend gave me this kit as a going-away gift before I moved to Florida. I used Testors one-coat lacquer Inca Gold, Testors gloss clear, Tamiya sprays for the interior, window trim, and wheels (Aoshima Racing Harts), Scale Auto Style p/e brake discs, decals from LauBak, Hoppin' Hydros subwoofers, Bare Metal Foil (headlight & taillight backing), and parts box steering wheel. Thanks for looking. More pictures on my website. :rolleyes:

I opened this thread up just to see what the heck a Hippo Sleek Subaru was...very nice build. Can't say there would be one on my bench anytime soon but yours is outstanding! Love the color on it too.

I'll second all of that! I'm not a tuner builder either, but the color really fits that car very well. Nice build!!

Well, I have a Subie wagon on my bench .. actually, this one being converted to an American version that my wife had.

This is a really good looking build. Antonio. All that black trim scares me and yours looks very clean, so I know it can be done. :)
