Completed: Revell Mini Cooper S



This Mini Cooper S conversion that was suppose to be finished last year.....
Details are not too good, as I was rushing to finish.

Progress thread: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=360388

Main color is Tamiya's TS-54 Light Metallic Blue. Wheels are Fujimi's Watanabe RS-8 painted grey, and ride height is lowered to the minimun. Spoiler and other Mini Cooper S parts are scratch built, with the exception of the exhaust tips which are from the parts bin. White stripe on bonnet cut from automotive vinyl. Interior is OOB.




Next up, Fujimi's Mini Cooper S LHD.

Thanks for looking.

Fine results!
I see you left the side skirts alone.
My conversion stalled on the hood scoop, and before I got back to it, Fujimi released what I really wanted. A glass roof 'S' Works... Now I just have to find one (lol).

Nice work-very aggressive! Since you have a Fujimi version you might think about taking the extra set of headlamps and installing them, that's the biggest disappointment on the Revell kit.

I have the new Fujimi (Italian Job/Stella Bridger) John Cooper Works Mini Cooper S painted in the same basic color scheme.
