[TanKaBoY]

I don't know if you guys have seen this one version of the Apexi D1 FD, but it has a 2-tone colour (red and white) and also silver wheels, and I was wondering how do u make that?

sorry but i cant really explain it too well. I hope u understand what im talking about.

Actually, I don't have a clue what you're talking about, it doesn't make any sense to me.

Does the body have a two-tone color?
How about a photo of what you're asking us about?

Are you asking how to mask the body?

[TanKaBoY]

and im asking how do make the two-tone colour

I think its the 2004 version of the APexi D1 RX-7

ehhh...unlikely but you never know.

The white you paint, the other colors are decals. The rims are chromed. You make it as you would any model.

I don't see why they wouldn't. They already done that with the Apex RX7. If you got the latest release of it (Sept) you go the 2004 D1 decals. The initial release (Apr) only had 2003's. If each year the car's overall design is the same, printing off a new set of decals, maybe some new instructions on painting the body if the car's color scheme changed and reboxing the kit wouldn't cost them much. It'd get another 2000yen out of those who want each version of the car.

these arent the latest decals are they?

so how many Apexi D1 RX-7's are there? now?
my guess is that they wont make another Apexi D1 RX-7, for the simple fact that, i doubt anyone would buy the latest one for the decals.
For example on HLJ the latest D1 RX-7(apexi) is still in stock.. and its already been a month since its release, and for cars like that it would be on Low stock or Backordered by now.

Are you talking about the new colour scheme? With the red that blends into white at the back? And has silver wheels, instead of gold with silver lips?
If you gimme like 2 seconds ill get a scan of what i think your talking about.

EDIT:: Is this what your talking about? I circled the bit at the back.
