It's Altezza like cover, but the kit body doesn't have the bezel and bulb details, so that will be a problem when the cover is left unpainted.
I have to think for a while, to make it look right.

I'm also a Brochure collector, maybe we could start a thread to do some swaps, it is related to modeling as we use them for referance.

Do you have a Paypal account?

Here's an interesting reference for the Evo VIII modelers.
It's Motor Fan Special issue No. 318 Lancer Evolution VIII no Subete (All about Evolution VIII)
50 pages full color + excerpt of brochure (26 pages)
ISBN 4-87904-620-5
400 yen + tax



Each of this "All about..." series focuses on one vehicle, and it contains the driving impression, development story, buyers guide, history, motor sports, and excerpt from the dealer brochure.

It shows the preliminary design sketches like this, as well as technical drawings and photos.


Actual functionality is shown in detail, and photos cover almost every part of the interior.


Thie magazine reads in Japanese way (from right to left), but the brochure pages are included at the end, and it reads from left to right.)


Best Car and Car Top has a similar special issue on one vehicle.
Try some Japanese book store, and they should be able to special order it for you.

Hiro

My dad used to Work for Honda and I would ALWAYS get them.

Then afetr he left, I stopped.

I have searched EVERYWHERE and never found them.

I am more interested in brochures though.

I think a brochure forum would rock! Me and Hiroboy can be the moderators Jay, are you listening.

BTW if anyone has a skyline GTR brochure, PM me please!

Hiro-if your willing to let any of your brochures go, PM me.

Unfortunately, no. (But I'm making the 4G63 though.)
In the pictures I posted, is the hood separate? No. So, you can almost always assume that those kits are curbside, and have no engine details.

There are a few exceptions that you have to cut the hood, and you can't judge by just looking at the body, such as Aoshima's R32 skyline, and other L28 and VG30 powered car kits.

Also, Fujimi's 240Z and KPGC110 Skyline GT-R has engine details, and you have to cut the hood.
