Progress...Phantom TommyKaira FX-GTPorsche Carrera 11-01-2004, 03:46 PM Here is an ongoing project that I have. Started it about a year ago. Got around to some progress this year, finally! It's based on a WRC Corolla. Phantom... Because there's no such thing, it formed in my imagination. >euro Corolla - tuned by TommyKaira< :p The body kit is a custom, using Tamiya putty and cards. The interior is from a broken kit, I forgot which one. With a little putty and cutting it fits perfectly well. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v458/Porsche_Carrera/front.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v458/Porsche_Carrera/rear.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v458/Porsche_Carrera/int2.jpg Thanks for looking. Comments, suggestions and criticisms are welcome! Bas Carwash 11-01-2004, 03:59 PM It looks great. It's so clean! How on earth did you get it so tight? You've been sanding the hole year to make it look so nice didn't ya? :D Porsche Carrera 11-01-2004, 04:27 PM It looks great. It's so clean! How on earth did you get it so tight? You've been sanding the hole year to make it look so nice didn't ya? :D Thanks! Hehehe! Basically yeah... but I have to still prepare it for painting and fill some imperfections on the body. ol' dude 11-01-2004, 04:28 PM Looks to be a great project!! Keep us posted on the progress!!! mike united 11-01-2004, 04:33 PM looks so clean & smooth, love how you've done the rear lights. Mike :) Dr.AK 11-01-2004, 04:56 PM That looks like it's one hell of a Corolla! Love the smoothnes of the bodykit. blackf40 11-01-2004, 05:01 PM Your front valance is sweet, man--nice work. You've also got my favorite color combo in the interior--looks pretty clean from here. What exterior color and wheels are going on? Porsche Carrera 11-01-2004, 05:13 PM Thank you for the compliments! :biggrin: Your front valance is sweet, man--nice work. You've also got my favorite color combo in the interior--looks pretty clean from here. What exterior color and wheels are going on? As for the body color I'm leaning towards midnight blue from Tamiya. And for the wheels... hmmm... I think I might go for some 19"s. Not too sure which ones yet. :p Lex Tikiman 11-01-2004, 05:39 PM Really nice build there. I would however caution you on using such a dark colour after doing all that work. If i were you i would use a lighter colour so that all of you hard work will be more visible. I tried midnight blue on something myself once and it kind of hides alot of detail i think. Just my opinion though so do as you please, and keep up the good work. That bodykit looks perfect from the pics. ImolaEK 11-01-2004, 06:44 PM Man that looks nice! Can you show us more please! Im loving how the headrest in the backseats in leaned back. Porsche Carrera 11-01-2004, 06:55 PM Thanks again for the kind words and the suggestions.
