VW Golf MK3 gti CLEANED

Finally it's finished.

Had some problems with the tail and frontlights.

After I painted the body in colour, the mouldings of the licenseplateholder was vissible again...

For people who have comments about the panellines... :P I really don't like when they were painted in black or something so I let this just in bodycolour

































It was not my best model, but I had a great time building it and it looks good with my other models

Kris.

I had the same problem with one of my models with the putty showing through, tamiya primer doesn't cut it. You got to use a primer that is a filler, grey duplicolor (primer/sealer) works good for me. Then you could spray what primer you prefer over it. Overall a nice build.

Looks pretty good! Though personally I don't get the point of shaving the license plate frame, just to stick a plate on the bumper where it sticks out more. Other than that It looks really really good! Nice work!

Re: VW Golf MK3 gti CLEANED

Hello there I like it to, energons right the plate should go but your build don't need it. On your next project cut into the bumpers or front&tail clip and make a built in License plate hole. make it sit off to the side you know at an angel. Still drop the plate your car will look ok with out it. Oh ya Energon love that S2000 I'm working on one for my self.

Re: VW Golf MK3 gti CLEANED

your use of the ADVAN wheels would looks grate I make some from resin,not many use those wheels. I have so many I wanted to sale thim but some friends said "NO" cope rights you don't want to go there. the reason I have so many is when I got the HKS drift car I liked the wheel so I bought a resin starter kit just so I could make me some cool wheels that I see aren't on the market for sale so I said to my self after making so many be the first to sale them. "NOT" so I sale thim at thrif shows in no named bags some like thim some don't not a lot of Drift fans out hear.

We fellow dubbers put it on the inside of the window so it won't get stolen.
