I just saw it in walmart and even thought i havent done a model in quite a bit but I couldnt resist when I saw it...
I am not building it like the movie one so does anyone have color suggestions?

heresa colour suggestion- metallic purple background with a red stripe, and two white-fading-into-yellow stripes curving up onto the roof? sounds complicated, but ive done it on my RC eclipse and it looks pretty sweet. Id love to see a 1/24th version but the thin black outlines might be a bit fiddly to mask off.

Indeed it does look good in red :iceslolan , The MI on the hood would be nice if it was black though, it would show up on the color much better, my color suggestion would have been a metallic blue, testors makes a color called Met Saphire Blue, its a veeerrry nice color :naughty: , although most ppl dont like testors color..

Hey Zwaag. What do your decals look like? Can you take a pic of them? If you have them all and are interested maybe we can work out a trade?

yea, plus then yours wont look like mine. Any way just to let you know, ITR and revell civic rims slip right on with no mods, just so you have more choices
