and I have an Aoshima 2012 Nissan GTR Pure Edition in my stash,so why not give it a shot?
First major conversion I did.
Started with the rear.Separated the rear diffuser from the bumper based on the new layout.

Nice work so far! I cant wait to build this New Nismo GTR, but Personally I'm gonna wait till Aoshima or Fujimi (or Tamiya...They have done a few Nismos recentlyish) release it. Good luck, will be watching this one!!
