Veilside MR-S completed!

This is one of many Fujimi editions of the Toyota MR-S, the Veilside. I primed it with Dupont Variprime and the color is House of Kolor Razberry Pearl, cleared with Tamiya TS-13. The interior color, which is a melon like color, is a custom mix of Polly Scale acrylics, the aluminum color is Finisher's Fine Silver, the steering wheel is a Sparco type from the parts box. The seats have SMS interior pin stripe decal with sections of it removed to make a pattern. The dash, part of the door panel and rear shelf has been carbon fibered with SMS decal. I drilled the fuel door out and installed a Studio 27 fuel fitting. The wheels are Fujimi Andrew Goltdish, the etched brakes are from Studio 27's 350Z etch set trimmed to fit onto the kit brakes. I painted the exhaust tips with TS-14 Gloss Black, and before it dried I sprayed Alclad Chrome on them. I used MV lenses for the head lights/blinkers and to make the Altezza styles tail lights. A nice kit for Fujimi, not too fiddly to build but hard to polish.

Thats one nice looking MR-S, good job.

OMG that's cool, mine is in the loft now as I've given up with it, too many paint jobs, nothing looked right.

Did you have problems with the rear lights? if I remember they didn't fit well at all.

This is a BEAUTIFUL job done!!!!! I had always wanted to buy this kit... but it's too expensive !! How much did you get yours ??? I really love it !!! One of my dream kit that i wanted to build~ TWO THUMBS UP!!
Hmm... if i remember clearly, the front wheels cannot turn right ??

MMM Yummy paint job :D

Thanks all! Yes, they don't fit well, especially the right one? There really isn't a fix for it short of molding your own.

Got it from HLJ, so it was around $25-$28 delivered. The front wheels do steer.

The main thing to remember when building this kit, is to glue the hood gills in with the rear of the gill flush with the hood, and the front of the gill raised. This will save you work when you mold them in. Just look at the pic on the kit box and you'll see what I mean.:)

Awsome paint job!

Respect,

Paul.

Awesome job! More pics of the interior please, especially the pinstripe seats :)

HOLY S***, THAT IS FUCKING COOL!!!!

Don't fancy MR2's much, but you changed my mind!!! Beautiful!!!

More pics of the interior please, especially the pinstripe seats

You can duplicate this by painting your seats, apply the pinstripe decal which is clear between the stripes, let it dry, then stick tape to it in selected places and pull it off. The decal doesn't come off in one piece, therefor it tears and makes it's own pattern. The seats were a little too bright so I came up with this idea to balance it out, the pinstripes also compliment the pattern in the carbon.

That came out right! I always wanted to see one of those finished. Great Job man. The carbon detail is a winner! :smoker:

Very nice, i like the interior looks flawless

:eek: very nice. I especially like the colour of the car and the cb dash.
i got a question, what's "mv" lens?:confused:

i got a question, what's "mv" lens?

These are realistic looking light lenses from M.V. Products. They actually look more like projector beam type lights rather than traditional sealed beam type. These lenses are clear and spherical in shape, but dome like not round. The back of them are colored silver to make the proper reflection. Available in many different sizes and sold mostly in hobby stores that sell electric train sets, train builders use them for the locomotive headlights.
