What a difference you made from the paint did by the ebay guy. Laurent, you are the King, I think you should send the pics to the Ebay guy to show him how you did with his ex-toy......:silly2:

Nice colour matching, Are you going to do anything to the grill? Because IMO it lets the model down.

Your work looks good, however, Fujimi really botched this car really badly. The roof line, shape of the front end and center grill surrounds are all wrong. Thank goodness Scale Kraft offers a corrected version of the old M3.;)

I am happy that I don't have dial-up, I wouldn't want to miss these great cars of you. Another superb job, allthough I like the BMW with the lights more, only because it has working lights in it.. Sets it apart from most other models.. But keep them all coming.

Only 1 question, could be pics a bit smaller so sidescrolling isn't neccesary to view the whole model..?

Now you can count yourself as a scale auto restorer as well as a scale auto builder :) Awesome work!
