Honda S-MX Lowdown ( 9 photos) lots of upgrades!
Well the photos are kind of small but you can get the overall look with them. This is the Tamiya Honda S-MX Lowdown. This kit is a curbside with no engine, except this one does!
 I added a scrachbuilt intercooler to the front as well as redid the front clip for a more agressive look. I added side skirts to make it look lower to the ground than it is. I also added a rear clip and hade made the tail pipe from a brass tube. Wheels and rubber are from the Tamiya 350Z kit. Engine and engine bay are from a Revell ITR. Paint is light green pearl from Tamiya. Enjoy the pics and any comments are welcome!          Scott

Thanks guys-
There was a lot of work put into this van. I filled in the bumpers to make one big one and cut holes out for the mesh in front as well as the grill. The plastic used for this kit sucks-its hard to cut with a knife and is brittle at the same time. I broke off a lot of bits that had to re-glued because of this. The side skirts and lower bumpers are strip plastic. Scott
