Interesting build, I drove one for 6yrs and have looked for a model for a long time. Where did you get yours and how is the quality? Keep up the great work and I'll be following this one.

@ Chris-Nice box. When you build it you should try to make that hood and reproduce the NOTW sticker.Always loved that solar yellow release series color. :)

Jason.... Trust me I already have plans on scratch building the bBist hood to make it look like that. I even picked up some Sacle Motor Sports Carbon fiber decals and I also picked up a different Tamiya race car kit since it had the same exact wheels as I have on my ride. I am also going to scratch build the spoiler too. I need to mess around and try to duplicate some stickers and try to print my own decals.

That is looking great! You have done a nice job so far. On a side note sorry to hear that your work is cutting your job. I have been in your shoes before and the two times I have been laid off work in the past year and half, I kept myself busy with building my models to help keep my mind off things.

Everytime I look at this thread it inspires me to get working on building a copy of my 1:1 xB
