You totally insane my friend, when I saw that "handmade hex fittings" I just fainted. Really top works there. I just can't believe...

I'm for classic fenders buddy, anyway they cover inside detals less than a cicle fender I guess, due to the kinda shape. I'm waiting to wash and drybrush a bit all mechs last updates: I have to manage 100 time a day this poor engine, it's a miracle that the silver (luckily I used Lecher grigio alloy that's very hard to release particles, and cure in seconds) is ever there.

The whole idea is an abused trackday cab, with well weathered mechs but a "just washed&waxed and done a couple of track's turns" body shell, so just a light weathering (ever if my finger allow that, I'm ever tempted to add a layer of dirty more LOL)

Yep, Aber mesh. No bad to work with, as well I found this plates (same with different pattern used in my CS rear 3D grill) not so strong.

Almost done, just few touches left.





I'd to reshape the right front fender around the muffler:







Don't worry for those poor Advan sticker all alone: I said it would be a racer! It'll find soon good fellowship.

Dashboard (PEtched), and steering weel from JGTC NSX





Engine washed and air filter and PE radiator installed (needs a cap)





Racing shocks with oil tank:



Ok, I need really few time to do wiring on battery and ignition+coil and distributor... and to re-coat fenders after decals, not much more

Really excellent :

I loooove your p/e dash! (and everything else too )

[robrex]

Thanks a lot guys: last touches with distributor, coil, battery and... it's finished!

I learned a lot with this little badass: my first turned rims, my first decent 2k clear, some improoved sprayed carbon patterns, a lot of fun everywhere. Thanks you guys for your support.







and... tataaaaaaaaaan:





still far from pefection, panels are just backed up, so fitting isn't the better, I loved make part of the S7 GB, I liked and learned a lot from your feedback.

Finished there with a lot of piczzz:

Amazing ! It's looking really good Gio !
I love how the fender curves around the muffler. And the wheels really look spectacular. And the cam-sprockets and the P/E dashboard, and.. and..
