Hi guys!

nice work:D what brushes did you use for the emblems "size wise"

Nicely Done:licker:

I love the rims, once again you have impressed me on another fine finished product!

Nice Detail under the hood.
I have a Question for you. What color did you paint the body and which did you use for the soft top. I'm planning on painting my 350Z a deep black like your vette. X1 Gloss Black for the body and XF1 Flat Black for the soft top ?

Those are my obvious choices but in my tests they dont look deep enough to mimic their 1:1 counterparts.

Thanks, and again awesome model

Stunning! The newer Vette's, like the NSX, designed to have have a smaller diameter wheel on the front. This makes it hard to fit aftermarket rims to them and make them look right. I found that by putting a smaller diameter tire on the front at least gets it closer to what it's suppose to look like.:)
