Hello every one i just found this site about a week ago and lurked a few days more but now i think i will introduce myself.
the names michael i have been building models on and off for 20 years now and i'm 26 now. but for the past 5 i have been doing import cars. i don't do to much custom stuff but i do some. i like building tamiya, fujimi, aoshima kits and trying my best to do custom work to them. but i don't think i will ever be able to do what you guys do with your cars and thats fine for me:)
I see a few others from the "MCL" over here like david now theres a guy that does some real tight stuff. any ways here are a few pictures of my honda accord vtec i built and added some things to like new racing style front seats, a back bench seat and rear deck with three sub woofers, new exhaust tip, and a set of hoppin hydros 20's and i tinted the windows with auto window tint. i won second place with this car and let me tell you i was shocked :eek: that i won any thing. just wish i could be better at this them i am but hey i still love building any ways.http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/513168hondaaccord1.jpg http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/346507hondaaccord2.jpg http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/838891award.jpg
