I know I shouldn't be starting anything else at the moment but this arrived on Monday and after staring at it for awhile I began wondering what would happen if one was imported into Japan and got the VIP treatment.
I'd got an Aoshima DAD Aristo kit lying around so I stole the bodykit parts and with a bit of kitbashing here's the result. I need to extend the side skirt slightly at the front and also deepen the sideskirt to match the depth of the front & rear bumpers. There's some filling & tidying up required but I'll post more progress as I make it. Undecided on wheels at the moment.

PS/ Sorry for the pic quality

Nice Start!!

Baller...

Nice start, i'll be following this one

looks great so far. the VIP look in't so far fetched, becouse the 300C IS available in Japan. so i'm sure there are some 300C's that have a VIP look already. I have a feeling that where going to see the 300C in an Aoshima box soon.

I kinda like it, it has Magnum wheels. which give it a more aggressive look.

Nice! this should be very clean when its done.

Nice. Will be another stunner from you.

It even looks like the VIP-parts are made for it!
Keep it commin'

No building options in the kit I'm afraid

Ha, sounds like me. I just can't help myself when I buy a new kit, I just have to start messing with it. That's why I had to stop buying so many, I now have like 20 models that I tinkered with but never finished:grinno: damn my lack of self control, lol. I know this will look good no matter which way you go with it. I will stay posted.

Wasn't very keen on the sideskirts from the Aristo kit so decided made some simple ones up from plastic sheet. Still undecided on the rims but here's another option.

sid ekit look good from piont here in the US Andy and i like these wheels over the frist set ! Man i got to get me 1 of these and put my Minidreams Paint work on it LOL! Looking good keep use up dated Later David@Minidreams Inc.

Nice side-skirts you made, though I like the first set of wheels more. They have more depth, and depth is a good thing...

Nice work!

Ya, those are very nice looking side skirts. I also like the first set of rims better. Go with the first pair.... Goodluck Dude, and keep us updated.

Managed to get a coat of primer on it between the snow showers here !. Still some filling to be done especially on the rear bumper where I need to make the top edge of the bodykit match the stock line above the license plate but at least it gives some idea how the bodykit will look.

Coming along well!:)

I LOVE those A8 looking wheels!!! Suit the 300 very well. Body kit is looking spiffy too. Are you going to give it a ghetto fabulous looking grille too? Err...you are in UK aren't you...."Rapper style"....Here is a pic incase none of those ring a bell.
This isn't that bad though..

the first set look better

the first set look better

I am diggin the second set. The first have a wierd twist. I don't know, I just like the second set. They do look like the A8 Rims....They look good..:grinyes:

Hey Andy, looking good. Just picked this kit up myself. Would have liked to see the SRT-8 parts in the box but...... Anyway, what wheels are the second set. I really like those, maybe for mine I'll do the same.

Thanks Andy, ordered up a set from modelexpress. Hope you dont mind me stealing your idea, just love the way they look.

cant wait to see how this one turns out.

A gunplatform for gangsters to stand on :), those wheels fit it nicely!

I personally like the first set of wheels better, but the 2nd set doesn't look bad though. Kit looks great and can't wait to see this finished!

Curious, how is the fitment and look if everything was kept stock? A friend of mine's uncle has one and thought I might make one for him as an excuse to build a kit.

Managed to spray this one today in Honda Nighthawk Black Pearlescent - still needs clearcoating.
