martinfan5 Posted November 5, 2012 Author Posted November 5, 2012 Thanks, where did you find that ar?
Scuderia Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 At a local hobby shop near me, where i got my pre-wired distributor. They had a lot of the tamiya jar paints and things like that and other supplies for scale projects. If you have a local-type shop near you they may carry it or similar.

Skydime Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Got a little bit more down, taillights, marker lights installed, did a wash on the grill, not happy with it I just used a bottle of Testors flat black on mine. There was a little on what was supposed to stay chromed. I just took my fingernail and went across it. The excess rubbed right off.

Dont worry Tim, you are not the only one that makes mistakes, I have made a few that has cost me extra money, one of them is having to replace a body, its a body for a GTR R35, to get the replacement body, $25, thats $12 less then the cost of the kit , so we have all been there
LAone Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Man this looks great. Shame I didn't see this earlier, I have extra sets of those Wats and would have been more than happy to have sent you a set. Hope to see this done soon.
