AE86 Levin coupe

That's right, I'm back (again!) and this time I bring with me an AE86 COUPE! no, not Initial D, sorry

I've shaved off the side moldings and did the initial sanding on the body.
The first pic shows a test fit of the side skirts (from another Levin kit), front lip and rear spoiler.

And this is how it looks with the wheels.


Gonna paint her Tamiya bright red. What do you guys think?

I think it's excellent so far!! I have the same kit but don't know how I wanna build it. Coupes are cool.

Can't go wrong with a Hachi. It looks like it'll be pretty nice.

Re: AE86 Levin coupe

Looks like its going to be really good.
How makes this kit? I have those same rims with my Fujimi, so I'm guessing Fujimi?

What's BG?
no, not doing 2 tone, I don't like 2 tone, it's over used and lame.

The side skirts, front lip and rear spoiler is on! But they still need some putty work. I also made the rear mud guards bigger, cause it looks fake.
