Maybe a bit of light dremel work or filing around those red tabs take a bit off to see if you can get them fitting a little better....

Looks good though overall

maybe a razor knife and trim the red pieces at the T til things fit a lil better???...you always find them good deals...u n i would kill at a flea market ; )

Wow, from the pics, I thought it was aluminum! I guess the paint made it look that good! The car should be in good hands with Zippo!

as far as i know, with the cayenne i have all bodies, maybe not all colors, bust a lot of different colors. but i want to work on all colors as well eventually

finally got my mint g35, and i took advantage of the sale, and got a new gtr and another vette, (not pictured, its the wife's and she's working on putting it together.)
and i found these 1/32 tamiya toys at the hs. they're 4wd and pretty cool. i'm thinking i can rob the wheels off of it for a truck, and mount the body on a custom chassis. its an isuzu thats waiting for a paint job.

edit, o yeah an a sneak preview of something i have up my sleeve.

lol is that a challenger???

Kaze · #**170** 06-24-2009, 04:58 AM

I have two of those sitting here my room too Zippo, the SRT I'm going to build regularly, then I have a R/T kit that I might make an Xmod. Let me know how the fitting goes, its a long body no doubt, its a huge car.

Also, judging from the pics yours is an SRT as well. What color you thinking of?

zippo855 · #**171** 07-15-2009, 11:16 PM

sorry guys didnt see the comments before, yep challenger, and its getting built for the patriotic comp. as for the paint, you will have to follow the thread, no spoilers

and i got a new ab that showed today that is going to help with the fine details that i have planned for the challenger

I'm liking the blue 350z,they are still available in Germany and I keep thinking about getting one,I've already got 2 orange ones so am having trouble justifying getting one.
I like the evo gpm too,I love anodised alloy parts and I love evo's too,great combination.
