Potpourri of Pics

Since I've been sick for the past few days I decided to take a few pictures of cars I'm touching up. The first two are of my three cars with Ro_ja GT-S rims, a 911 Carrera 4S, a LanEvo8, and a Lexus SC430:




Here's a shot of the new grill i put in the Evo:

The 911 got a spoiler donated from a 1:24 Import Racer Veilside 350Z. I trimmed it to size but found that no matter where I put it on the hatch the hatch wouldn't open so I took some time and worked in a little hinge which allows the engine to be opened while the spoiler just tilts up a little.

Finally some pictures of my three cars with Oasis B1 rims on them:

And the GS and EXT up close:


Alot of this was a good exercise with my camera, it's very hard to get correct exposures of black and chrome on the same car, esecially with mildly diffused incandescents. Enjoy!

are the wheels on the evo standard, if not where are they from?

The Evo is killer!!

Enzo, the rims are Ro_ja GT-S (that's the first thing he stated)

And did they come in black or did you paint them?

Beautiful. The color combo with the Porsche is awesome. Silver on black is sexy.

I'd like to but I don't have any matching paint. If I did i'd probably repaint the whole car.

Thanks for the comments!

y dont u take all of your silvers and paint it on a scrap piece of metal or plastic and c if any of them are as close as the silver paint on the porsche

Hey Gafoto, how do you remove/replace AutoArt and Kyosho rims? Do you know?

[Gafoto]

I just removed the whole assembly and replaced it. Normally that would work but for the GS here I had to install a small plastic plate right underneath the engine so I could then screw the eyebolts in, which now hold the wheels.

So the idea is the same as in my tutorial, I just had to put in a plastic plate because the eyebolts didn't have anything to attach to.
