Nice conversion so far, but I think the rims are a bit oversized - I can't even believe I say this as I love modern looking big rims-lowprofile tires combination...

Looking good. I've been thinking about modding a few of my die-cast models as of late. I'm planning to go old school though ("lead" work).

Very brave!

I just can agree with Alex and I agree with janositamas, the wheels appear too big.

Just another question: Why didn´t you choose a Coupe for the base of your work, f.e. from Schuco or Motorama (f.e. http://cgi.ebay.at/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120309808766&ssPageName=MERCOSI_VI_ROSI_PR4_PCN_BIX_Stores&refitem=290272232056&itemcount=4&refwidgetloc=closed_view_item&refwidgettype=osi_widget&_trksid=p284.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DSI%26its%3DI%26itu%3DCR%252BUCI%2 6otn%3D4%26ps%3D41 or http://cgi.ebay.at/MOTORAMA-DIE-CAST-BMW-Z4-M-COUPE-RACING-ECH-1-24_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQitemZ290272232056 )

The wheels does look a little oversized but since the real car runs 20" wheels, i guess i will stick with these wheels for now. I bought this maisto diecast a few years ago, that is before they have the coupe version.

Progress has been little slow, this is my very first attempt with two tone body color and custom decal, i will touch up the paint and the decal later on. The body and the wheels is yet to be clear coated.
