Re: Just picked couple new kits...

If the Koenig benz is anything like the "super inch up 300CE" that I just bought to pirate the brembos and wheels from, then it is going to be pretty basic...The wheels have polycaps but mount on fullwidth brass axle rods, the hood is separate but there is no engine bay , not to mention the chrome grille is moulded into the black bonnet so needs some major BMF'ing or something. The interior is pretty average on detail. Wheels and main body shell are nice though!
The benz I got has full wrap windows so I'm going to spray the interior one color, tint the hell out of the windows, and carve up the chassis to get some aoshima 19" VIP rims way up into the wheelarches. Which by the way if its anything like the 300, will need doing because there is very little room under the wheelarches in mine.
Also the add on bodykit parts in the coupe I got fit over the stock body, and really need the body relieved underneath, yours may be the same.

It may of course be a much nicer kit, but I'd be guessing its of similar heritage to the kit I got..
