ever tried resin casting. you could make another dash and try to convert that one. then if you screw it up, no worries.

Never tried resin casting model car parts before, I'm actually not even sure how to do it!

Hello, I worked on my car today for about an hour getting rid of the 1/4 moldings on it!! I also got rid of the water squirters. One piece of advice for anyone who plans to do the same, make sure you make the door panel lines deeper before you start chopping and sanding, the panel line on the 1/4 molding is more shallow than the rest of the door, so do them ahead of time so you don't have to create your own lines!!





Well, that's all for now!!

I realize that I never did put up a pic of the car's actual ride height, well here's one,


Th car was dropped around 1/4" on all four corners, if anyone needs help on dropping their AE86, just ask

*edit* notice I got little brake adapters behind the front brakes, I'm going to mount some disk brakes there when it's painted. By the way the mount was made out of scratch plastic!

I'm settled with the BRIDE seats! Still debating on weather to have the roll-cage or not.............. The dash will remain RHD, sadly. The light detail for this car sucks a$$(typical FUJIMI!!!!!!) Darn today I realized that I sanded too much from the sides, I'm missing parts of the side flare Added putty to fix the problem, and the corner of the spoiler cracked!!! I'll try to fix the car up by Sunday for some MaD mAn primering!!!!!

Well that's about it!

Actually it's like 50 TIMES!!!!! Well, we'll see, I called them Bride seats cause I got the decal for um! They look exactly like the RECARO seats that come with the Fujimi ITR.

As for the rims, like I said before, they were molded that way, but going to be painted white so don't worry!

Turbos, do you have the 17" or 18" version????

Well as for updates, I got some Primer on the car, the spoiler needs some work, and I painted the interior flat black, I hope to throw some Gray paint on it, for a 2-tone interior.

I have the 17" and might be getting a set of 18" down the road. From the pics, the 18" look a lot bigger.

Looking foward to more pics!

Hello all!

Here's some pics for all of you who come to see this thread everyday to look for updates on my project!!

As you can see, I made modifications to the front lights for a more realistic look, I'm making bulbs at the moment.

As you can see, the rims are also primered!
