stitchdup Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 I started on this last night. So far its a nice kit and I like how the suspension gets glued from the inside but I guess you can do that with a curbside. I'm using a set of aoshima wheels in the 19" flavour, and have done them inr clear red over the chrome. The suspension will be low and stanced so before doing anything else I filed down the inside of the arches to get a little more space for the tyres to sit right in the arch and possibly the arch on the rim. I did the interior in red and have done the dash with satin upper and matt black lower with just the larger knobs in silver. The paint is simoniz matt black with tamiya clear pearl though I think it may have turned out better over gloss.
stitchdup Posted August 10, 2019 Author Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) Got the stance where I want it. I went for a more aircooled style with more camber at the rear and pretty upright at the front. Since its a curbside I cut out the topr of the arches as they'll never be seen once the bumpers and side skirts are fitted Edited August 10, 2019 by stitchdup
stitchdup Posted August 10, 2019 Author Posted August 10, 2019 almost finished only to find the power back bumper doesn't fit. if the centre is lined up the sides stick out. I've ended up with glue spots over the bumper area. up until now everything was fitting nice except one rear light the glass knocked out after the body was on. I like the kit but am annoyed at these 2 parts. the body fit is too tight to remove it without doing damage
