I fiddled with front end. Found engine bay was not sitting on pins so I enlarged holes and it sits "better". Now the hood doesn't close and front fascia wont sit all the way against fenders.. Plastic wins; I'm tired of taking this thing apart. I think they all look like they sit up in the front due to front wheel opening higher than rear one. I've seen two others posted and they both look that way; and one even has the hood issue. It ain't Tamiya fit and finish. On to the pictures. Sorry about the hood support, I lost the rod that came with car.

I usually don't comment on a model until it's finished. Not sure about this one. Is it?

Its as finished as I am going to make it. When the frustration with front end wears off, I may try some radical surgery to see if I can get nose to fit. So, C & C welcomed

I like it. The solid color on the rear valance is a nice touch. I wonder if there's a way to make hippari/stance/stretched style tires from stockers. Maybe with a little heat. Not really my thing so I'll leave it to anyone else who wants to try :D

Good work though.
