Just finished this one. Im really happy with the way it came out; this was some of the most work I've put into a build. I lowered it and used modified rims from a Shelby GT500. They were dechromed and the outer part of the rim was painted silver. The spokes are actually unpainted, but since they were the color I wanted and still had the chrome base on I left them. I think the stance and wheel/tire package came out great. Nothing is plumbed and there are no wires, but I did manage some engine detailing. The way the front bumper and hood come together came out wrong, and the whole front grill doesnt seem to fit the front at all. Good from far, far from good. Comments and criticisms welcome, hope you enjoy!

Finally get some pics up!

Piecing it together before paint would have fixed a lot of my issues, rather than dealing with the parts while painted. Everything else was good, though I have learned some things for the next build. The edges of the decals are peeling, and my painting technique needs attention. This one got three different shades of blue before I found a paint I could work with. The rear three-quarter shots are my favorite, I can't get enough of the stance!
