As to the uneven tail should I putty it or prime it then sand and prime again till the highs and lows are gone?
excellent choice

I have the same kit. I have some custom decals of blue flames that I'm going to use on it. I'm going to paint it white. I'll probably go with white, light gunmetal, or anodized blue rims. Black and Blue interior of course. Can't wait.

Idea sounds great, only I would go for bigger rims instead of 10 inch ones.

19 inch still waitining for them to arrive so I might have to put the normal ones first. A little scare to lower the car because I have never done it before. So we will see.

Progress Pic did not want to start another thread, Under belly of the car, The car is almost done just have to glue the parts together and wait for the inteior to dry, all parts were primed and airbrushed. Going to clear coat the car plus the under belly of it as well just to protect it. Did a few color mod then what tamiya suggested of the under car because I felt that the under belly of the car is a piece of art work and should have some parts painted to show it. Hope it looks alright to you guys. Working on a second r32 but with physical mods this one will be bone stock.

Will have more pics when everything is done.

no not yet, waiting for it to dry, just airbrushed it today, so have to glue them together, working on the engine block and front suspension as we speak. body is painted just have to do the decals and buff it to a mirror shine then clear coat it.

Should have a set of good pictures withing the week.

One thing about the 4wd system is that it is a piece of art work. Sorry about my crappy camera.

Looks good so far, nice drivetrain.
I would go for the original rims, only in a different color (but don't ask which color then...)
And what's wrong with your camera..? I can almost read the instructionsmanual's text, so that can't be wrong and your model is in it too, so it doesn't leave important things of. At least you can take non-blurry pics that's something I still have to learn to get. More than 75% are blurry when I take pics.

Some pics with the new rims, waiting for the paint to cure for a few days before applying the clear coat. Working on the custom radiator right now. hopefully things will be completed by the end of this week.

Hope you like it, Did not know how to lower this car and afraid to do it so maybe next time.
