Hi everybody!!

I forgot to snap some picture at the begining of this project.. sorry but I will explain what I do to get the result.

So I start with the S2000 tamiya kit.

kit# 24211

OR kit# 24245

I add the 4 transkit I produce:

body kit

and finally the complete engine bay with shown in this picture the MUGEN hard top

Also use for this project...

Our carbone fiber decals.

Now what I've done.

I remove the front, rear bumper and the left, right skirt from the kit and finaly remove the hood. I instal the scale auto style body kit, the hood latch and prime.

I put the carbon fiber decals on my hard top, paint my body with a cameleon scheme from ruby red TO coper gold. Instal the hard top on it and clear

I know my carbon fiber is not perfect. it's the first time I try to cover an area like this one. PERSONNALY it look OK. in real it look like a manufacturer default.

AND THIS IS THE RESULT.

after that I attack the interior.

I paint the interior tub black. after use some waterbase white glue and flock everything with SAS charcoal grey flocking velour. paint black the dash and seats. do a silver drybrush on the dash and put the decals

Next thing to do is

- instal the flocking in the hard top.

- instal the windshield

- do the joint between the firewall and the windshield

- etc....

but this is an other story

Looking good. It's going to be an interesting build of an interesting car with the modifications you're planning to put on. Can't wait to see the motor in the car.
