1:18 RSX Type-S, custom

Well this is not my usuall medium but I told my roomate I could make his RSX look ALOT better than it did out of the box.I painted the headlight housings black & I layed Carbon fiber on the hood and wing. Painted the wheel centers gunmetal and painted the interior black to get rid of those ugly white seats! and of course I lowered even more than it was out of the box, hope you like. I lost track of everything else I did to it since I worked on it off and on over a period of 9 months (I just worked slowly was all).

Re: 1:18 RSX Type-S, custom

you should custom paint it and make suicide doors there more challenging than lambo doors

Re: 1:18 RSX Type-S, custom

i dont think he should custom paint it. the black and white "ricer look" (if you will) makes it look good.

the lambo doors he was refering to was in his sig, its a plastic model. and suicide doors are also quite easy

...he did customize it... stock this muscle machine has a white hood, chrome rims, and white seats with red inserts... the things that he did are modest, but tastefully done and improve the looks of the diecast so much...
