S15 Silvia Progress x2

Silvia frenzy !
This one's based on the Kei Office kit but using the SAS GP Sports front bumper - wheels are Fujimi 18" NT03's with SAS Advan tyres - I'm thinking perhaps pearl white with a CF hood - wheels may stay white or perhaps gunmetal. May use a rear wing but undecided at the moment.

This one uses the Aero version but with SAS side skirts.

After I took the first pic I removed the centre bar and license plate holder and added a lip to bring the front level with the side skirts. Paint will be 2 tone following the swage line with bottom half Honda Imola Orange & top half Tamiya Light Gunmetal. The Racing Harts will also be Light Gunmetal.

A bit of progress on the Imola Orange one -I sprayed the Tamiya Light Gunmetal on the top half but wasn't keen on the colour combination
(a darker Gunmetal or black may have looked better). I'd also not been entirely happy with the way the Orange didn't contine into the front bumper (the angle of the body line dictated that it stopped at the rear of the front wheel arch if that makes sense) so decided to go with 100% Imola Orange. Here's where I am currently - paint has been polished out and window trim sprayed up.

Done a little bit more on this one - decided to use Kranze LXZ rims with SAS Advan tyres. The lip on the front bumper has been CF'd and I've started to build an intercooler. I've left the headlights chrome as I'm using the chrome rear lights from the Kei Office version - interior will be either black or grey with orange inserts.
