JGTC GT300 fd3s

OK guys- here goes...
Early work inside the car-







here are my wheel options;


the top one is a mazdaspeed ms01 mag from Fujini's RX-7 R-Spec, the bottom left is Tamiya's OZ wheel from the Lancer rally , and the bottom right is Aoshima's 19" Nismo from the R-34 GTR Nismo Skyline. I'm leaning toward the Nismo, I like the offset the best- what do you think?

Just beginning cutting the fenders-


and again, with the diffuser-

(it's just sitting on the wheels- no suspension yet )
I'd welcome any advice, especially from you guys whe work with putty a lot-
Thanks for looking , and being patient. More to come soon!

My opinion will be enkei 18" rather than 19". If want to build to look spec, 18" is the real spec, 19" is too big and there won't be gap for the wheel to turn. Moreover, the tyre are racing tyre. Size is fat rather than the road tyre are narrow.
1 question. Do you got any real pict on the rollcage? Could you please share some with us. Actually, I got plan to do 1 for myself too, but since you had started and I'm still search high and low for the interior pictures of this Aspara FD3S...so all I can do is watch your progress.

My rollcage started before I found these- it's not accurate!





back to the aluminum rod...better now than after I mount the body on the chassis right?

Fixing the cage- and starting the fender flares tonight. Pics this weekend- stay tuned

Hi guys- I need some help with the decals on this car- I have a set from Fujimi's Greddy 9- they help a lot, but I need more. Especially the white ADVAN and YOKOHAMA on the rear, and the various ones all over the fenders and such. If you have any spares or suggestions where to turn, please let me know. Thanks
