Tamiya RX-7 Update. All painted. 11 New Pics...

Here is an update. Attached the exhaust. I sprayed it with 4 coats, then added another three yesterday. All i need to do is wet sand, polish, and wax. A CF wing and Hood is also going to be added.

BTW, is it normal for the paint to have "scratch swirls" from Tamiya's compound? The paint is Tamiya Spray if that helps. Thanks.

Yeah, I think it was you. You chopped that jag in the GM forum right? BTW i polished the top and hood, so ill update soon.

I thought it was black,until I saw the last picture. I like the underbody.

is it the r1?will start my r1 tomorrow...allready love that kit:D good job!

looks like a nice kit.... 1 thing.. ur rear wheels r to wide, or they stick our or somthing

it looks ok i see some orange peel tho:D

looks good, but there are orangel peel in somre areas.

looks great:D

Maybe if you guys read the first paragraph you'll understand why the orange peel is temporarily there. :rolleyes: . I sanded and polished the roof and hood today. so i'll post so me more pics soon. As for the rear wheels, yeah they are too wide, and i cannot shorten them anymore.

wat bout using the REAR tires.. STOCKIES... or cut the rims down

i donna , doesn't look that bad

Nah, that doesn't work. If anything i have to cut down the spot where the plastic round things (forgot name) go in. I cut them down a lot already, and if i go any farther the rim wont attach. So, its going to have to be that way.
