I can't wait to see this painted. With or without wing, it'll still look good.

I have chopped the original wing to the flat wing.

Will go with Silver trim to make it vip look if I decide to paint it in black/dark blue color.

Stay tuned!

Do you think I should make the edge of the muffler thicker?

I would pull it in a little unless you want it to look real hardcore VIP, then you oughta make it longer! And stick up. Otherwise... looks fine to me.

Who makes this kit? You're making me want to "un-M" the kit to make my grandpa's 540.
Anyways, the car looks great. I really like the square tip; just use some thinner styrene or sand it down a little. Keep it up!

Thanks for all the input. The muffler is made out from styrene and will be sanded to smooth and sharper.
