RestoModGuy Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Quick build in between the big detail builds. 2015 Mustang GT. I did some mods, hand grafted and molded a unique rear spoiler, hood scoop and removed the front stock grills and replaced with PE mesh. Did the same with the two hood "vents", opened and used mesh. Mirrors are from a 2012 Mustang parts kits I have. Aluminum tubing exhaust tips too.Wheels are Aoshima I accented with some Magnisium buffing paint. I don't like the kit "painted" taillights, so I BMF over them and used a red Sharpie, I think it looks far more realistic. If you note, the biggest thing I did was fabricated a set of actual realistic headlights! Those that might know, this snaptite kit comes with silver painted plastic as headlights. Paint is Duplicolor Stellar Blue with lots of polished and buffed Duplicolor clear coats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misha Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Amazing job Jim turning a basic snap kit into a gem! Your headlights are bang on, would you describe how you achieved the look. The other changes in the grill, hood, spoiler all contribute to an overall look that raises the bar for this kit. Congrats!Cheers Misha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
