What colour, and wheels???

Hey, Heres a pic of my real car, I want my model to look the same! What Tamiya colour is this, and can you get these wheels???

Hey machine hunter, I know what you mean by not sure, but you got to be more specific. You sound dumb. ;) j/k

I think he meant he is not sure if it is silver leaf or gloss alluminum.

Spoonmandos painted in silver leaf and it looked practically exactly like that.

IMO silver leaf is a hard color to work with. I tried it when I was a noob and the orange peel looked so heavy I thought I did something really wrong. :lol2:

I don't think anybody makes those wheels but you could try Hoppin Hydros Bellagios.

i have simular wheels that that

Bah Humbug, thanks for the info. But about the paint, I have NFI what you are talking about!! LOL Im new to this (first model) so you think you can explain what leafgloss and spoonmandos is??

Thanks!!

Machine Hunter, show me your wheels!

TS-30 Silver Leaf, and some high gloss clearcoat on top of that.


I have a similar, although thinner, wheel that came with my Aoshima Falcon Toyota Aristo.

If you found a set, you could strip them of the chrome, and repaint them in the same TS-30 Silver.


Good luck!

Sindicate, your the man!! Those rims are really popular in oz. But how would I strip the chrome?

Thanks again my friend!!

Spoonmandos is from the forum and painted his supra in silver leaf and it looked awesome.

Sorry, I should have elaborated.

To strip them just soak them in bleach

Cool, Thanks B16!! Bah, now I know why I was confused, thanks, Ill do a search.

Thanks alot guys!

or csc always does the truck for striping ;)

When I look at peeps Supra kits, the tailights and headlights just look wrong, why is that?

If your Supra is in original colour you can go to some spare part shop or a car painter and ask for a fixing paint.
