Exclamation Help with my ITR .. please (Pman?, Jay?, Laurent?...someone

Hey all, I am making good progress on my revell ITR and I need help with a few things. First off, I am wanting to make my own side skirts and mod the rear bumper and i bought some Tamiya Epoxy putty... how do i use this stuff, it says nead the two pieces together and stuff?! just want some tips... Next i want to lower the car, A LOT! hehehe... what is a fairly simple way of doin this????

All help would be much apprechiated. The car is being painted Tamiya Titanium Gold, with a blue and white interior. I am also making a custom sub enclosure for my 2 10s.

No digi cam so pics will be here when im done and i develop the film

I lowered my ITR by Cutting the mounting posts on the body.

Hope this helps a bit.

I think it is much easier to cut he post, since the wheels r almost touching the wheel well and if you cut the springs you will have 2 cut the wheel well in order for the wheel 2 fit.

For the ITR, I guess just cut the coils, if you want it real slammed you could cut the inner fender, one bad thing about it, it effects the look of your engine bay.
