Alfa Romeo 155 Jagermeister progress
Only the interior's done. I'm thinking of adding more cables, but have no reference photos. Do you all think there'll be any carbon fiber surfaces in there?
Anyway I've arrowed some items below. Can all those techies explain what those 3 items are and where cables from them would lead to?

Those are affectionatly called "black boxes" and could be anything from engine management electronic control devices to electronic sensor information storage devices. I'd suggest that most of the wires would loop towards to engine area, but send a few to the rear (towards the rear end). They should all exit the driver's compartment.

Is this a Tamiya 155 Touring car? I just got one off Kris and I wanna know if they all came with engines etc, I'm thinking of making mine a street car, do they have those fat exaust pipes that the red super touring 155 in Gran turismo 2 has? Cant wait to see this thing in Orange, i think it will look very nice!

Should I use TS-31 Bright Oranga or H59 Orange? Is there an accurate Jagermeister color?
Anyway, can't do any painting today.. it's raining here. Yes, it's the Tamiya model. No option for street parts, the whole thing is a racer from the ground up. Race interior, bodywork, etc.

Hey its raining in AUS today aswell! Good to know its a Tamiya, i'm gettin the Bosch one (as you can see in sig) But I dont like big square race cars so i'm gonna just paint it some whacky colour and not put any decals on...maybe a couple actually....just stuff like that, but did yours come with those exhaust pipes that stick up from the back bumper? theres 2 on each side.

Progress pics. No decals, just the base coat.
Note the terrible fit of the front cowl. There were no warped parts, and the fit in nicely, but the alignment is terrible!!

Tamiya kits don't have fitment problems like that; I'm pretty sure you've mucked something up along the way.
