Aoshima Stretchwalls and Overfenders

[Draggon]

Someone here was looking for these awhile back. Tokyo Hobby has listed 4 different sets of them tonite. Here's a link to them. $21 shipped to USA isnt cheap, but its about the going price for something hard to find like these.

NICE!!!

I've got a set on the way!

Are those round things clear wheels? I'm trying out some SMOOTH - ON 325 clear resin. It is not fun so far.

I see some chrome centerline type wheels on a parts tree. Is that what you are talking about?

.Anyone here duplicating those tires? I have a car that really could use a set.

[Draggon]

Someone was a year or two ago, but I cant remember whom it was. The way these things are like hen's teeth and ex$$pensive, one would think it could prove to be lucrative. The only issue I see is that the tires really have to be stretched to fit over the wheels. Flexible resin would definitely be needed.

Oh yea, and the set I got is beautiful, but the tires are slicks. Not a problem for me, but someone really wanting treaded tires would be disappointed.

Yeah, hi Draggon; I was asking about these fender - flares. Are they mostly for small diam. wheels, like 13" or 14" ? Could they be used on a Trans-Am type race car?

[Draggon]

Yes, Jeffrey, there's enough room for a 1/25 15" or perhaps 16" Trans Am tire in there. Not quite enough for the larger 1/24 tires like those used in Tamiya's GTCC cars.

I've been waiting months for these from HLJ. I did another search last week and a store here has got some, so I cancelled the order at HLJ and had these delivered thursday, they look pretty good.

Hobby Search is now showing most of the Fujimi over fender sets as being back in stock.
