Hi,
Finally I got to post my dreaded Modena...
The kit started as a ferrari 360 Modena which I built couple of years ago. I sprayed it with a limited edition Tamiya Pearl Yellow. When I moved to US, I brought it with me. I wasn't satisfied with it so I dipped it in brake fluid and primered it and sprayed it with TS 7 Racing White.Guess what, the paint showed wrinkles, so I dipped it again in brake fluid. Along the way the door pillar broke, I fixed it and primered it again, and it broke again!!
After fixing it I finally made the front bumper lip along with side skirt lip just like the Hamann Modena, and sprayed it Telefonica Blue.
So here she is, its not completely done yet. The rear window is messed up so I have to find replacement. I still also have to give wash to the wheels.

Thanks, the rear glass is not glued yet, I used a brown PVC that looks like tinted.

Looks great for all it has been through. The dark blue paint is gorgeous on it.
