Custom=Dubs???

yeah, i was wondering how long it took you to put all that together on the front bumper..also, was it difficult to make everything even out ?
thanks

The front bumper took me a while, mainly because I wasn't able to work on it on a regular basis. Depending on what kind of mods to the front bumper you'd like, your building time will vary. Keep these things in mind. Use plastic styrene sheets to build a exo-skeleton or basic shape of the bumper. Then use epoxy putty, and mold it into the shape you want. However don't expect everything to be perfect at once.

I don't fully understand what you mean by everything evened out, could you get into more detail?

like, is it hard to shape it..what tools did you use?

[Tsuchiya Keichi]

Shaping it was quite easy, however figuring out how to is what's hard. You have to use your imagination to figure out what and how you are gonna do things.
If you are interested in making a bumper similar to mine, I could walk you through the process step by step.
Or, you could pick a different kit of your own, and I'd gladly give you advice on how to do it.
The tools needed for the bumper were: Sand paper, x-acto knife, scissors, styrene sheets, and epoxy putty.

where did you get the epoxy putty?

[Tsuchiya Keichi]

At my local hobby shop. Tamiya brand epoxy putty, it's usually found near the tamiya wax's and so on.

Where did you find those wheels? They look exactly like Konig Verdicts without the center caps.

Looks GREAT !

Steetracer would you mind starting a new thread? I know he said he wanted to see your pics, but you could start a new thread and post the link here.

Skyline rims! What happened to the steering wheel? My cars may not have brakes but at least they can steer. Just...sometimes the wheels steer independently.

Its the new telepathic system so if you think right, it turns right, if you think left it turns left. I wonder what happens if you think up?

Oh noes! One has to wonder why the steering wheel is sitting next to the seat though. Put some glue on that puppy.

About the decals. Where did they come from? Got a source for the rest of us?

I think he wanted to replicated a race steering wheel.
