Back from holidays and need help

Glad too be back to the forum.

In my holidays I've the time to finish my first kit and to almost finish the second one, maybe this week it will be completed.

Since I don't have a digital camera I've to wait until I finish the Corvette to scan the pictures to show to you guys.

In meanwhile a friend gave me this kit: http://files.automotiveforums.com/up...am24096box.jpg

I don’t know what to do with it.

Any ideas?

I would say, build the thing... But that should be obvious..

Check the Progress Thread of the S13 345 Tuning, and try to do something like that, big ass spoilers, skirts, etc... and lower it...

Another thought: Lower it and give it big 19" rims, like Aoshima's VIP series of cars. For example: http://www.hlj.com/cgi-local/hljpage.cgi?AOS23204

Thumbs up Thanks guys

I’ll follow your ideas.

Since I’m a beginner the worst part should be the skirts, but i’ll give it a try.

Any advice on it ?

Orlando.

I'm a beginner also, but frmo what I have heard, you should make parts from styrene plates and then shape it with putty. Don't know if it works, cause i never done it, but others did it so it should work.

So after your ideas, I decide to ordered a set of rims for the Celsior from HLJ:

And finally, since I work in the importer of VW in Portugal I think that’s cool to make this one:

I'll appreciate any comments from you guys.

Thanks.

Nice wheels Darkzero, I think I forgot the muffler for my Prelude.

Hope to see your Supra done soon.

Orlando.
