Best of luck on your skyline. Sounds to me like you will be doing a considerable amount of detail work. Good luck!

I dont think this should be in the motorsport section.

Such a good mod you are Phil. You get a cookie!

Oh, didnt really know which to catergorize it in, but on the subject of color, I was thinking the factory purple, or silver, unless someone can suggest a better color.

Update!: Rollcage 70% Complete!
Here's a picture.

The Rollcage and Strut Bar are all made from Solder.

Here's a shot of the hood, I was looking into other ways to mount it, but here's the side opening way.

I found a badass set of rims I had stashed in my wheel droor that look beautiful on the R33, post pics soon as my camera charges.

SupaMan89T · 09-09-2004, 01:40 AM

I WANNA SEE THEM! SHOW US!

*waits for wheel shots*

Finally my camera charged up, so here's the body sitting on the wheels at the desired ride height (maybe a bit lower in the rear).

Thanks to a WRX 1/24 for these rims.
