Modded Whips Spider

In the middle of finishing up my Whips Spider with black detailing I chipped the paint on the rear bumped.

I filled in the license plate area since it was already gonna be painted. I didn't really have any paint to match so I tried my best. You might notice a slight difference in shade but its better than nothing. I'm pretty pleased with this car now. Nothing wild, just some simple cosmetic mods.





More pics on my site (link's in the sig).

Enjoy!

The little white one in your sig isnt NEAR on par with your other cars.

Nice Stallion too.

Well, when I get that $180,000 check at the end of the month i'll be upgrading. Till then I'll just have to be satisfied with the 10-inch version.

Re: Modded Whips Spider

yup, making the car sit way too high off ground. 1/24 import wheels and better rotors will do. overall, the car is clean and elegance

Re: Modded Whips Spider

The car does look high up. But a very nice car all the same.

Re: Re: Modded Whips Spider

I don't think I could've gotten anything over that ferrari logo to keep it from getting painted. Just isn't feasible to cover up something that small.
