All the putty work is done now, Just made the front bumper fit nicely
The front grill go broken out whilst sanding so I have created a R33 Style replacement.

The Wheels shown arethe New Pegasus Range, Phat Daddies 23" Chrome, Pegasus T's 23" Chrome and Pegasus Vantage 23" Chrome.
I was just messing about, none of these will stay, all these wheels came from Tower Hobbies (Link)

Thanks

Re: 345 Tuning R32 Skyline Widebody

Not really my kind of taste, but looking good so far. I like the vantage wheels for that car. Your going to have to make a FAT lip for the rear though.

Re: 345 Tuning R32 Skyline Widebody








The body has now been primed with Halfords White is now ready for a colour coat.
I want the colour to show the lines of the body kit, so My first Idea of Black or Dark Gunmetal is out.

Any Ideas ?

Thanks

Looking good!

I have some suggestions for your paintjob:

-all white with maybe a CF hood.
-bright orange
-bright green
-mica blue
or a shiny silver with some flatblack accents here and there.

Re: 345 Tuning R32 Skyline Widebody

Re: 345 Tuning R32 Skyline Widebody

mica blue is my favorite. quick question about the model itself. is there a piece for the trunk (like a whale tale to bridge the gap between the fender flare wing thingy) or are those fenders suppose to stick up in the air like that?

Looking good Steve! You make a ill-fitting kit look like it went together like a snaptogether! That really shows your talent.

Re: 345 Tuning R32 Skyline Widebody

Yup, if you want to bring out the body lines silver is a very good choice and black would give it a nice contrast.

Cant wait to see how this turns out!
