even though it's really fine grit, it still can give a toothing to the surface for the paint to adhere

Thanks for the comments guys!

Update: Got a Skyline GT-R R32 body on Saturday. Plan is to clean it up and install the "Top Secret" rear diffuser.

wow.........the paint on the 512 and Mosler looks so good. Just like candy The skyline is looking AMAZING!!! Love the lip, and the GT-R wheels (I think...) set it off really well. You need to mass produce your work

Thanks WC, and you're correct, those are the stock GT-R rims on the R32. I would really love to mass produce my work, but those molding materials are expensive.


Update: R32 finished!





Owner's 1:1

Lmao, yea I just got back from the track and saw his R32. He don't bring it out a lot, its garage keep for the whole time, never meet rain/snow. He also have a blue GT-R R33 LM edition that is a work in process. He's thinking of trading his R32 and R33 for a white GT-R R34 V Spec.

I'm looking forward to work on more customer projects in the future.

Thanks man, its direct fit to the R32 body with no modification. the The diffuser is glued to the back of the rear bumper, the exhaust tip is screwed to the bottom of the spoiler.

Lmao, I have no idea. But 2 GT-R plus a 3 series as a DD, had a Supra and AE86. All I know is that I'm very jealous, lol. His R33 is still in the process of building, so no pics of it. But I have seen of a pic of it from his phone...its sexy. I was actually talking to him about a doing a R33 mini-z body lol.

Thanks buddy, convert the Evo 8 to 9 isn't too hard, they both looks very similar, the only difference they have are the bumpers.

Update: Got a cop car. Windows have been melted from heat, so I will try to make some new windows for it.

Did the previous owner explain how the windows melted? I'm certainly curious to know how that happened..

The owner goes to my local track, he bought that cop car in BNIB condition off another guy that goes to the same track few weeks ago. The same week he bought the body, he left it in his car, and his car got so hot, the heat inside his car melted the windows on the body.

Update: Final update on the R32. Added front lip to match his 1:1

Mini-Z...





Owner's 1:1...
