Looks great but how about some carbon decal on the hood to finish it off?...
Im going to have to get this kit just so i can build something straight from the box for a change.

Yeah! After I saw that car, I was sold on getting this kit. I love C-West body kits. I may get some carbon fiber in the future when i get tired of how this model looks :)

What's it say on the intercooler? Blitz?

Yup, it says Blitz...I actually drew it on with a marker. I think I wrote it too big. I may paint over it and redo that part if I feel like it...
Thanks a lot for the compliments!!!

What did you think of the kit? Easy to do, any problems?
Very, very nice job!

The kit is pretty easy. The hard part is cutting out the hole for the headlights. This is the first time I've cut and puttied the body of a model before. I coulda done better, but it was my first time, so I guess it's ok...
And I'd suggest cutting the sides of the car and mold in the side skirts...as you can tell, I didn't do that.

One question about the kit: does it have instructions in English?

P.S. Alex: I finally gave up on engine detail ;)

The instructions are in Japanese. But you don't need english instructions. Just go off the pictures...

No Aoshima models for me then, because in some cases you need english instructions. There's usually some advice or options that you can't understand from pictures only. Too bad..

I knew you'd find something else to complain about :D j/k
You really don't need anything but pictures.

Usually, yes. But I was browsing at http://www.1999.co.jp and saw some things in Aoshima kit instructions that I didn't have a clue what they meant, coz there was only text. Probably nothing too important though, I guess.
