Post Tamiya Porsche GT2 progress thread

Started on the Tamiya GT2 club sport kit. Going to try to make it the street version.

Since I have already posted the thread on filling in the racing interior floor and maiing floor mats, I am going to continue.

First the wheels, while an excellent rendition of the BBS LMs they needed a lot of work, dark wash, gold centers, center knock offs and red annodized clips in the centers....here they are:







Here is the racing hraness, holes enlarged, ribbon seat belt harness, photoetch buckles, carbon fiber backing, manufacturers markings and most importantly seat railing, with rail clips and photoetch tie down hardware.









So what do we think so far?

Its little fine details like this which make a model great, wheels look good esp with the red anodised clips. Seat looks great as it is.

Im sure that this will turn out great!!!

The car pictured is a 964... the car being modelled is a 993 (ie the enxt generation). I think Fujimi do a couple of 964 models which would be a better bet for replicating the car pictured.

The 993 looks good though, next on my list when I get my 996 GT3 finished...
