Well here they are.
I took them at work as i dont have a dig-camera anymore and the work one is not a very good one.
The pics dont really do the model justice.
He's about the best 3 out of about 20 taken

Read the comments i made about the kit back in the thread.








P.S. ..Dont look at my mess of a work desk in the background
I'll get on top of all my jobs one day !!!

You can see by the last pic what i meant about the back wheel not being in the wheel arch correctly.
My first go has not worked at getting it right....plan B is next


Dan....i went to the model shop on the way to work and they have run out of Wax but should have more in by Friday.

Do you still want some ??

Usual story!
Yeah, I need some!

As for the Merc, I see it needed some work!
You'll just have to reduce the offset of the wheel to bring it in more I guess!
Those tires are awful, the profile is enormous!
I'll get those tires of to you this afternoon, the lower profile will look better immediately! I just hope they aren't too wide!
Shoud look nice amongst the collection though!

The other stupid thing they have done in the kit is give you the factory rims in the kit which are a lot smaller...but no tyres. ...the rims fall straight though the tyres ....lol


NO MORE FUJIMI KITS WILL ENTER THIS HOUSE AGAIN

Not bad, not bad at all. Even if that rear wheel is misalligned, it's still looks hot!

What's next?

Did you use the Subaru WRC wheels I sent you Warren? I saw some pics of the Mines WRX and they used those wheels! It looked so HOT!
I'll see if I can dig the picture up!

Rear! A bit of carbon fibre! The exhaust that comes with the WRX isn't bad at all! Though if you are going to do a HLJ order, it would be a crime not to order a biggie!
