The WIP: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul....php?t=1143927

Overall a very nice kit to build, The doors did not fit at all, I would reccomend to just glue them shut. A couple small dents(sink holes) needed to be filled in and smoothed out.
The mirrors also did not fit well with the way revell wanted to mount them, so i cut their tabs off drilled some holes inserted a pin e voila!

The Kit wheels where rubbish as usual!



Thank god for Plamoz!

Awesome, and the Plamoz wheels look so much better. Where were the sinkholes?

Fromt and rear fenders plus some low spots on the doors

Beautiful result, great choice of color scheme.

BVC500: I have detected these two sinks on the body. There are also some more minor sinks in other places.

Thanks guys, that helps save some time identifying them!

I just got mine the other day. I'm planning on doing a similar color scheme, except I'm using BMW's Blue Water for the exterior, a favorite color of mine which is usually featured on their hybrid sedan and SUV models.

The paints work really well. Though if you can get your hands on zero paints i don't see a reason to switch.
