Hmmmmmm, I hope mine gets further!
The windscreen is still safe, and I have trimmed the two side windows off it! That was very easy, the joining line proving to be very thin.

This is the effect I want to achieve on the exhausts. I prefer my silencers though, better shine!

I got mine out the other day to see if the chassis from the plastic model would fit in the die-cast body. I was dissapointed. It would take a lot of work, and really doesn't look that promising anyway.

Now working on the interior.

The red leather was achieved through a 50/50 mix of Tamiya Gloss red X7 and flat red, XF7, put through my airbrush. The carpeted area is flat red. The contrast looks great and worked well.
The interior is quite simple to paint, only the complex door panel proving hard to mask. I will have to use my liquid masking compound for that.

The front suspension bugged me, it was too high, so I dismantled it and filed a few areas down, opened a few holes, and now I am happy with it's stance.
The Honda Silverstone Metallic paint can only be described as spangly!!!

Looks good! I masked the door panels okay with tape. Brown masking, IIRC...

Dont you dare forget to paint the "ENGINE START" button red!

Also, I was dreaming of making floormats for this car out of styrene sheet. I was going to try to simulate the little "S2000" logos stitched in. Look for F20C's pics of his car for reference. :flash:

It doesn't show, so here it is!

Nice car! I see yours has the orange front lights, were as here in the UK they are clear.

Mine is coming along very nicely, though having to redo the carpet and side panels is a pain.
The masking fluid liked the Tamiya paint too much, and wouldn't let go, so I have had to strip it and redo them, but that shouldn't hold me up as I have to wait for the laquer to cure now before polishing.
The rear lights were completed today, and look great!

Pics as soon as it is done!

They load on AF okay after they've been loaded at 9000rpm.20m.com. But, thanks for changing them to links, F20C!

And thanks for posting them in the first place. :flash:

Cause I recently moved to my new place. So I am waiting for high speed internet connection to be install. Right now I am stuck with the ultra slow dial up.
