There's a bunch of HK sellers right now, and I've avoided them because of the shipping costs. But, on the other hand, their prices are super-low. Let me know how your transaction goes, please.

I'm amazed that you guys have so much trouble getting kits. I thought there would be a model shop on every corner in the USA.

When i read any model book that comes from the USA there seems to be pages and pages of shops listed in the back of these books.

Hey Warren, question for ya. Just out of curiosity, do you put a coat of clearcoat after applying the decals?

If not, something to consider.

I am putting Carbon Fibre decal on the undertray of mine!

IT'S BLEEDIN' DIFFICULT!!!

But I will get there!
I am also making a Nismo exhaust for it!

All this whilst waiting impatiently for the lacquer to harden so I can polish it!

I have never really been a big fan of clearcoats since i sprayed one of mt BTCC Volvo's and it melted all the decals. I still dont know why it done it. So i have never bothered doing it again.

Looking at the kit,its what it lacks....a nice big fat tip.

Post some pics up Dan when you have it done. I want to do mine with a single instead of the straw sized twins
