R-34 reconstruction(progress)

[street_racer1]

hey i got this skyline about a week ago and ya its a diecast..........but i am putting a body kit on it so far all did was strip the paint and cut the front bumper off, my mods im doin are:
- body kit
- intercooler
- exaust
- different wing
- shaved door handles
- rims
the only reason im shavin the door handles is because when i stripped the paint i didn't know that the handle was made of plastic untill it was to late oh well i wasnt mad. here are some before pics
before


heres the front bumber im going to put on it

thats the bumber only i will be putting on not the grill or anything else. I will post pics of the body and the rims by the end of the day. Another thing is what color should i paint it besides orange and blue. PLEASE reply to this.

What scale is the skyline???

[Camber]

I suggest you change them fatso tires

I like the shaved handles (too the trunk), the car is very smoothed.

For the color I think about white and a carbon hood... it looks great.

that body kit is going to look like crap on a Skyline...well, at least i think it will. prove me wrong!

Get rid of them BoBo tires.

heres pics of the skyline with the front bumber just placed on and i think it looks pretty good. and also here are pics of the rims too
front bumber:

and the rims:

im not sure if i will keep those rims chrome but ya never know. also im thinking of painting the car like a charcol or a sort of faded black and i was wondering what tamiya color would be the best for that kind of color

:huh:

[Suislide]

well, my previous thought was confirmed. i really don't like the way that bumper looks on it. and the wheels...too bling bling for a Skyline. but hey, it's your car, do what you want and i just won't look at this thread if i think it looks bad.

[street_racer1]

nobody likes this front well is there anything i could add to this front that could make it look better if so plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz tell me cuz i am acually starting to not like it. its the only spare front i have (unless u guys think a viper front would look good) so plz plz tell me what to do.

i am also adding 2 small hood scoops and a roof scoop. Did i mention i need some help j/k but seriously

[street_racer1]

heres the some what finished front bumper im puttin on the skyline. the white pieces will be black/carbonfiber and the yellow stuff is just holding the pieces to the front. theres also two small hood scoops and a roof scoop which will be made smaller here are the pics:
