Junction Produce Toyota Crown V8 Any Body That Has Built It Please Come In

Hey guys, I recently recieved my Aoshima Junction Produce Toyota Crown V8 and when I opened the box, I found a chrome sticker and a piece of sand paper ...and well, I cant really read Japanese, so uh... what are these for?

Any Help would be great, im guessing its for putting mirror faces on the side mirrors, but thats just my guess, hopefully someone else has built this can help me out!

The chrome sticker can be used for mirrors (rear-view) and also for the various body trimming on the VIP cars that are chrome. It's okay stuff. Though I think it's a bit too thick and doesn't conform very well to sharp corners/curves. BMF is superior.

As for the sandpaper, it's just regular ol 400 grit paper for sanding off mold lines and prep before putting on primer.

If you need a Toyota V8, then try Tamiya's Lexus LS400 or Toyota Celsior. They have the 4.0 V8's in the kit.
