Nice Wheels...

Ira Posted September 11, 2012 Author Posted September 11, 2012 EXHAUST PIPES!!! THe Exhaust Pipes are made from Plastic and Aluminum Tubing, cut with a Razer Saw in a Miter Box. The extra tubing inside will make a good gluing surface for the Pipes... Here are the other 2 pieces. I painted them Flat Black. I glued them together to make it easier the attach the Pipes to the body. Here are the finished Pipes in place!
