I have built this kit too, and then dropped it after I had just painted it! That was the worst because I did just what you are doing and made sure the body kit was smooth and fit appropriately. Mine used to be on tinyimports.com before. Looking good so far, can't wait for it to be painted!

Hi guys the car is now sorted and mostly cleaned up, took a little while but i think it was worth the effort im pretty happy with the results especialy the rear wheel arches and bumper alignment, it was a real mess. Its been raining heavily here in Sydney over the last 2 days so painting anything is definately out of the question hopefully i should have this in primer over the next few days.

Heres some pics of the car with different wheel combinations,my pick is the TE37's, most would say that the TE37's have been done to death but it just looks so good regardless of what car you put it on.













Im still undecided to what colour to do this car, havent really thought about what sort of look i want it to have,however Im considering droping a modified low slung GT wing from scale auto style,ive got an idea rolling around my head so i will post some pics if i manage to pull off the mod.

Im also in the process of test fitting the suspension components and other parts, like my previous MR2 this will require to be lowered since this car rides like a bus.Thanks again for looking, feedback is always welcome and appreciated.

Looks good. Take the original rims with a green paint job.

I like that last set of wheels, but go with what you like best! As for the rest of it, it looks magnificent. Very good work with the kit.

you have done a nice job on the fit problems. i'm liking the TE-37, might look awesome with a white on white color combo.

I don't know I think you should go with the te-37 and either do them all gold or gunmetal with a silver/chrome lip.

Re: Fujimi Veilside MR2 SW20 In Progress

Nice job on the fix snk33y...
Pity about the rain...sent some of it brisbane bound..
My opinion on would be a very light gunmetal with the original rims dished a little bit.
Later, Troy
