Re: WIP- Dale Earnhardt Jr '05 Chevy

did a bit on the rims today.

Im using wheels and tires from the older revell kits as they are much better looking and fit better!

im just waiting on the new style "goodyear" decals from JWBTM to come in the mail, they should be here in a few days and then i can finish detailing the tires!

Re: WIP- Dale Earnhardt Jr '05 Chevy

ny2000 google a place called modern motorsports.

James, are you going to add tire markings? like RR RF and so on? If so, what do you use?
