To be very honest, the paper towel carpet is not working for me. Otherwise, everything is great so far and i love the idea of porsche seats in a BMW.

thanx for the comments guys!

is it that bad? (the toilet paper)
what else can I use for this?

Find you some old velvet hanging around or just put in some flocking. Here is my M3.

[KP60]

is this a plastic kit ???

(if so, which one is it??)

[KP60]

here is some progress

weathering and custom exhaust



another photo



I decided to go with only a few decals, and clear lights





so,



just a bit more weathering..



disk brakes fitted in wheels





and here is how I'm going to glue the wheels on the body (because they couldn fit correctly)

If I were you I'd use flocking for the interior. The toilet paper looks better than I thought it would though. You did a good job of getting it to conform to the shapes of the interior.

My kit is a 1/24 scale Dragon BMW M3 race car kit I made into a street version. It is a plastic kit.

almost finished!!

only thing left, is to paint the mirrors...

but I think I like them this way (white)

what do you think ???











I will post some better pics..

please make some comments !

[KP60]

nothing??
no coment??
anyone???


well, I thing I'll put some more decals, I'll attach the wiper (I forgot it)
I'll paint the mirrors black matt, and of course it needs some "panel lines"

and then I'll take some outdoor pictures!

well...what can i say? looks nice! but please paint the grille black and the part that surrounds it silver, it will look more real...just my

[zak78]

Yes, it looks very good so far, but it doesn't look finished. Black window trim will help, as all e36 have it. You should probably paint the bumper pads black as well. Finally, you should do something about the taillights.
Try painting the bottom 2/3 red, and leaving the top 1/3 clear, like this:

Edit: I would also mask and paint the door handles black.

how didn't I see the grill???
thanks!

the window trims are allready painted black matt
(I just haven't post them yet..)

as for the bumper pads, I'll let them - I like it better this way..

and about the tail lights, I was going for something more like these:



thanks again for the comments !!!

[KP60]

here is some more progress...

Nice, looks very cool.

But I think you should do something headlights and taillights they don't like realistic.
