Talking Completed Gold Civic Type-R

Here is my latest completion, a Fujimi CTR. I sprayed it w/ Tamiya gold and polished it out after clearing. I wasn't too sure about the color, but I said screw it, I've already put enough time into this one. Also, gold is a really tricky color to make it look right, it shows all of the paint's imperfections. The wheels are the new(er) Aoshima 19" Volk Racing sprayed the same color. Headlights were done with Alclad (a necessity with these lights). The front grills on this kit were disappointing with their molded-in parts, so I feel Fujimi could have made this kit a little better and that regard. Overall though, I'm happy with the kit. Not too bad... I still need to put decals on the rear wheels and add a license plate, but it's pretty much done.

Nice build. You've made that POS Fujimi kit look nice. Not an easy accomplishment. The paint looks super as well.

Big thumbs up.

Nice and clean build. I like the wheels and muffler. I think outside pictures will do the body color justice Hint hint...
