Wow, you're like an assembly line. You're knocking them off left and right. Can't wait to see this puppy finished.

[Rickard_Olsson]

I already have one update though.. I have been thinking on this one all weekend so I made this at once.. It´s the rear diffusor.. The real car had it and this one is only made as a streetversion I have to say.. it´s only the decals that makes a difference.. and the wheels ofcourse..
Enough chat.. here it comes..
BTW, I have been thinking of open one door so you can see the interior.. should I :?:

Should look good when done. Instead of chopping a door off - you could leave off a side window and cut a new shorter piece from clear sheet so it looks like it's open. You'll achieve the same result with less work. IMHO.

[nugundam93]

an opening door would be great.

[Rickard_Olsson]

Okey.. I decided to open a door on this one.. I will let the pictures to the talking









I splitted the windows



Have been working a little bit on the ?door side?..





And hopefully it will look something like this when it´s finished



That´s it for now.. We will see if I can get something painted on it by the weekend..

Looks good! Will the door be hindged, or glued open?

[godfather23]

How did you split the window? Did you just use a knife? Becuse I´m afraid - when I´m doing this that the windows will crack!

[Rickard_Olsson]

deltableh - I think I will glue the door into an opened position

godfather23 - I used a little saw.. and then I sawed on the flat side on the window.. the side you see on the picture.. I sawed in the "panel-line" on the window.. because I think that if I will do it from the thin side (upwards and down trough the window) it will crack..

Looking forward to following this one too, Rickard.

Good idea to open the door

[Mr. Me.]

That`s great. Is P/E included or you bought it separately of kit?

[Rickard_Olsson]

Mr.me - the P/E is included.. but there is no P/E parts for seatbelts though :/

[Rickard_Olsson]

SMALL update
I have been working on the two non-openable front lights today and the airvents on the rear-hatch.

Here are the pics (first time seeing this on a model I have to say :roll: )







I think they look good

The Airvents on the rear-hatch
