Looks very good. Not sure what car it is, not that "up" on my US cars. It is a US car right? You have some very nice models as well.

Very Nice!
I love the engine bay weathering/detailing!
How was fitment of the front bumper?

How did you paint the "buick" lettering onthe grille...looks great.
You even detailed the wheels!
Great ride height too.

I'll be building one of these for a friend do you have a progress thread?

thanks guys

the fitment was pretty good with a bit of sanding. It's actually not glued on it's attached by the two sides holding onto the tiny clamp...I figured I'd leave it in case something happened

the buick lettering was done with bare metal foil. I read of a method where you lay it down on the script before painting, and after painting, you polish it out. I just sanded it with 800 grit and then with 2000 grit.

I do have a progress thread, but it's not very detailed. Most of the weathering/engine/lowering was done without pics, but I can help you when you build one

Looks good! How much trouble did you have with the tailllight lenses? When I built this kit, those things gave me a ton of problems.

Re: Completed: GN (very big thread)

thanks again guys

the MKIII Supra is a Fujimi kit, also sold under Testors boxing

the tail light lenses gave some problems with fit. I had to sand them to make them fit nicely... the black part was done with the new sharpie "professional." that stuff is actually black ink unlike the regular sharpie which has that strange glean to it.
