Nissan Silvia S15 drift machine

Finished at last!
Firstly, I'd like to say that this was a practice and experience model and I only put about 70% effort into this. My aim was just to get it done...
But, I'm extremely happy the way it's turned out!! I love it!! It looks so much better in real life, the pics really don't do it justice.
There are a few things that are a problem,
-the clear is too thick
-the rear bumper don't fit on as well as it did before
-windows haven't been painted with black trim.
List of mods. :mrgreen:
COLOUR
-Zero Midnight Purple
-Zero 2K Clear
EXTERIOR
-Custom front, sides and rear.
-custom hood
-scratch built rear crash bar.
-Modified wing mirrors
-V-Mount intercooler
-Blitz wheels with blue wheel nuts
-Widened front fenders(2mm)
-widened rear arches (2mm)
INTERIOR
-Scratch built stripped rear to replicate a real stripped out S15
-scratch built rear door panels
-scratch built roll cage
-racing seat and harness
-upgraded steering wheel
-head unit ( for the hell of it)
CHASSIS
-Wheels spaced out
-adjusted camber angle
-scratch built exhaust from aluminium
Lots of piccies...

Re: Nissan Silvia S15 drift machine

Thats a great build, but i feel that the wheels are a little off. Not because of the chamber but may be because they stick out out side of the wheel well.
I do like the removeable bumper and the color. It's mysterious.
