Reworked front to accomodate Nismo Skline bonnet from SAS, lowered as much as possible without cutting the wheel wells rear spoiler from spares box. Painted with silver basecoat followed by cirise(spelling?) pink nail polish.Possibly looking to add some graphics if I can find some I like.Rims are Fujimi EU Vurses

The only fit problems I had was with the final assembly of the floor pan, ended up cutting off the rear lacation tab an supergluing that end first, then when set glued and clamped the front, dont know if its the kit or something I did:sunglasse

I cheated, I didnt install the kit suspension parts I just drilled through the side of the floorpan at the max height I could get away with.:naughty:
Pic of engine, no extra details just painted it and added an intercooler

I think you've started something. The Eclipse may be the next cool car to build, thanks you. That color and wheel combo go hand and hand.
