A good modeler?

I have a diecast '94 Honda Accord (4-door) that I would like a good modeler to paint, trim, alter to look EXACTLY like my buddies (real) car. I have diecast, and photos of his real Accord. Does anyone know a mdel maker who can tackle such a project? I live in the greater-Memphis (TN) area, and there's no one here. Any ideas, any leads, please email me. I'd like to have this done by his birthday (June 22nd). Thanks. [email protected]

Re: A good modeler?

lookup all the hobby shops in your area
shops that actually sell model kits
usually they will do it for a small fee
if you buy paint, glue, or the kit from them
good luck!

Re: A good modeler?

no way.. 24's only belong on cars where they actually fit LMAO.. or older cars... IE 76 caprice, 85 monte carlo SS, 96 impala SS.. Accord's belong on nothing bigger than 19's 20's at the MOST.. but that is pushing it..

Re: A good modeler?

I really can't see an Accord on 24s. It will look funny as hell but I can't see it. I can't see 20s on it either...

I just noticed someting.. "this is coming from the guy who likes donks, a RIMS that are too big" whats "a rims"

And donk doesnt classify rims that are too big.. donk is a body style. Donk is a 71-76 caprice or impala.
Not that it matters to bias people.
