thispartisrequired Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Hi all Thought I'd post this up, as I'm pretty happy with it, starting to get to a point where I'm half satisfied with what I'm turning out. Built from the Tamiya kit, albeit with highly modified suspension, rear wheels modified with cutom barrells and then trimming to change the offset, tyres spun on the drill to get the stretchy look . Pulled the arches a bit and modded the lower part of the bumper, other than that bone stock . Cheap satin black, clearcoated same with the wheels, subtle browns, all tamiya for the interior. All comments negative or otherwise welcome. Thanks Sam
Chuck Most Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 The idea of a stanced BMW is just so sick and twisted for all the right reasons. Personally, I'd have used some lower profile rubber, but I still like it.
thispartisrequired Posted December 19, 2012 Author Posted December 19, 2012 They are pretty common over in europe, I quite often see a lowered beemer. Any idea on where to get low profile tyres? Its a bit of a dry area on the model front where I am (only one shop on the Island where I live that sells styrene, usually its always in sizes you dont want or need :/ )
Modlbldr Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 I like the looks of this and I think the changes you made are great. I only have one suggestion. Take some more photos of it with a white paper base and background. It may help show some of the details better, making it easier to see. Later-
