Fanof69 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Hello All. This is the Revell Streetburner kit. I took a few liberties that might go against the true T/A package. First being that I painted the hood body color instead of black and only painted the hood scoop black. Secondly I used the pedestal wing style rear spoiler instead of the flush mounted one( I liked the way it look a little more) that all the pics on google show for the T/A,. From what I can tell the wing pedestal spoiler was used on the R/T, yet they give you both in the kit that is labeled as a T/A and only comes with T/A decals. Maybe one of the Mopar guys on here can straighten that out for me. Oh and if that is the incorrect spoiler for the T/A then I doubled down on the wrongness and put the T/A decal on it Thirdly and maybe the biggest liberty I took was to strip all the chrome parts and paint them black. I also did this with the wheels but that made it look like it had steel wheels with all the hub caps missing, so I repainted them aluminum. Oh one more thing. I used the black BMF around the front and rear windows and had nothing but problems with it. I had not used the black BMF before so I'm not sure if that is typical or If I got a bad sheet. Anyway enough rambling. On to the pics. Thanks for looking!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Rollins Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I really like the look!! The aluminum on those wheels really pop!! One tip: Drip some thinned down black into the holes on the wheels and they will really look good!! Great work!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xingu Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Nice. I like the blacked out treatment. Interested to hear if others have had trouble with the black BMF. I have a few models I would like to use it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Very nice Challenger. I just don't care for the wheels painted. Black foil is really a pain. It is thick and if burnished much will wear the black off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I kinda like it! A bit of a different look, but without looking too radical or far-out in any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
