It's an Nissan Skyline 2000 GT/ES from Aoshima with option parts to make an oldskool japanes car :)

I made a dryfit with the spoiler and fenderflares I wanted to use.

The kit comes with stretchwall tyres and wheels. So I'm going to use them of course :)

I don't know what colour it will be. Maybe black?

Kris.

Cant wait to see it painted!!

dude, this could be a sick drift car. try painting it blue.

i love these shakotan boogie cars. this will be sick

Looks good. For the colour I'd go something similar to what is on the box art - how about the 'special' purple colour Tamiya released for the original Raybrig NSX? Can't remember the name - something "Violet"?

you need to black out the headlights, so it looks like a big grille with no headlights. that would look awesome, but thats my opinion

Have it slammed like in the pics. I think the color of the blue plastic would look cool or black. It comes with the front radiator right?

it would be cool to do a flat color paint ....black, red,blue,or green....

Sorry guys I painted it yesterday in Racing Blue :)

Now I'll let it dry a couple of days and bring on the BMF to the windowtrims. After that I'll clearcoat the body.

Today I had some time to work on the Nissan.

First I added BMF on the windowrims.
After that I clearcoated the body.

The skyline logo and turbo logo on the back will be painted chrome with a gundam marker. This will be done after I polished the body.

Kris.

Wow! That thing looks great!

Loving the color! And the wheels!

Today I worked hard on this project.

I finished the interior and chassis.

First the interior.
I kept it basic with flat black. I used some embossing powder as carpet and replaced the original seats for 1 racingseat.
