Project: Nismo Style 350z
Hi, This is my 1st die cast project I’ve done in awhile. I plan to just keep it plain and simple. It sucks when you don’t have the right materials for a project. [Materials im waiting for, Stryene, Tamiya putty, styrene glue.]

Base: Miasto 1:18 scale

I sanded the area with some 400grit sandpaper,and applyed the bondo
Im using bondo for the base, kinda like a skeleton for now. I should have my materials in, in a few days.

Heres some progress, Just started the basic shape of the Nismo skirt.
Ill update frequently, so stay tuned

Surry for the crappy pictures, I should be getting my new camera sometime this month

got some plans for the Engine. It came with a peice of plastic with the VQ molded. I plan to scratch build the engine...

I cant wait to see more of this Josh. This is definately going to be an excellent project considering your previous skills. Soon I will get a 350Z and make a Veilside VerIII bodykit for it.

Good luck! Keep us updated!

Like I noted before Mike building a Veilside kit is a waste of time since Jada builds the car already with that exact kit. It's just a quick repaint away from a masterpiece.

Looks good. I think there should be a FMIC in it.
