This kit was built for a review in Scale Auto Magazine a few Month's back. Color is Tamiya Pearl White. Rims were painted Gloss Black. Pretty much out of box build. The only thing I forgot to add to the model after photographing it was the Nissan emblem in the back:banghead: Spent a very long time straighting the body back into form because it was not properly protected in shipment when it was sent to me. I think it's one of the most annoying things a modeler can go through but here it is....

Very clean my friend, love the panel line work, not too much or too little. How did you like the kit?

Nice build, but your trunk isn't closing. And in my opinion the exhaust is a bit too shiny. Put a little Tamiya smoke in it and it doesn't look that chrome

Nice clean build. A suggestion on the photo maybe you would want to give it more lighting, that way more details of your model can be seen.

It's an easy fix if you had to address it.
