Yes those rims are nice. Do they happen to be Fujimi Buddy Club P1's?

Nice start

As for the engine, you might want to look for the new revell Focus.. there is a 1/25 engine that might fit there.. could be interesting

Talking

does your model happen to be from tamiya? because i'm also working on one but i painted in black with white rims (original enkei WRC tarmac) from the kit... i think yours looks hot as it it but if you do up the front bumper, it'll look definately more fierce

Re: racing focus in the makes

The best, Sheeez. I got 2 diffrent ones at home, Tamiya and Squadron. But I need a better putty than them because the Tamiya one takes for ever to dry, and squadron dries fast but messes up easily. Putty runs for around 3 Dollars. BTW, what is the best putty that I could buy that dries fast and lasts long?
