Completed D1 GP HKS Hiper Silvia

One of my favorite D1 cars - just straight out of the box with the addition of the racing harnesses. In common with all the D1 series it's just got the standard interior (which I was too lazy to try & correct but you can't see that much when it's all together). On the plus side I think they've captured the bodykit well & even has the eyebrows moulded into the front lenses. All-in-all I'd say one of the better D1 releases so far in the series.






PS/ I can feel a street version coming on
Thanks for looking
Andy

I sprayed them silver and then transparent red - if anything I probably put on one coat too many as they're a little bit dark.
Cheers

The rims & the sponsor decals seem to vary from time to time -

I guess either red or yellow for the rear rims would be correct

Yup. I like the all red ones better. The other ones looked too Ronald McDonald for me Excellent build I wish they would sell these wheels in a smaller size Their just too cool to miss out on due to how big they are

Whamy!
