Damn, how did I miss this one.

Actually, the body proportions seem to be correct as far as length goes, at least when I look at mine compared to a side view of the actual car, but the top is definitly chopped and the hood line is lower.

I haven't made too much progress on mine lately, hence, no updated picturs in my sig. This definitly give me some motivation to pull it off the shelf and get to work again. The top shouldn't be too hard to chop, but I think I will have a lot harder time with the hood, considering the progress already done on the front.

Hey Chris, those TC II's done yet ? Convert to center locks, and I'll be in business

Ooops, I guess it was 2 years old, never came up in any of my earlier searches when I started. I got too excited about the title and never looked at the dates of the posts until the end. Oh well, motivation was needed anyhoo.

how do u use the putty and mold them into the exact shape?like the bodykits etc?

btw loving ur altezza, think someone needs to work on the HKS evo8 next

[Rtuned]

That was 2years ago built, and was my very 1st bodykit ...but the project was trash because I found that it was completely wrong. I will do it again, but not that soon. Since FOTW will be selling this as a full kit, I think I rather buy it from him. I'm really surprise to see this thread again... maybe you may want to check the rest like BugZilla version is the correct one.

As for the TRB-02, yes plan to do 1 for my own collection, but it seems like the stream Z...both were crash. Now as you can see my signature, I was building those plus lots of JGTC, VIP and MPV cars bodies + bodykit.

In a nutshell, slap it on and start shaping before it hardens too much. Then, a fair amount of sanding. I use Milliput, really like it since it sticks well and is easy to mold, but I just got some Tamiya that I want to try out.

Still working on the Vielside Evo VI, if I can quit dropping and stepping on it, I might get somewhere, but the VIII is on my list as well.

BTW rtuned, love the GT300's in your sig. I am trying to do a skin graft on the '03 Fujimi with the Tamiya kit to make the roof and trunk right,eventually turn it into the Cusco GT300.
