Fujimi Sard Altezza

[MidMazar]

Here is my newest car that i started on. Lately i have seemed to have started more and more projects with little motivation to finish them. Hopefully i will have more time and start pounding them out.
Well on to the build, its a fujimi SXE Altezza Sard (is300), It looks to be a simple build, unfortunatley i opened the box and found the resin pieces are a little too small. That will be fixed with a little putty and cutting and extending. I still have not decided on what color i should paint it. This one will be mostly out of the box with minor additions. The plan is to put some different wheels on it, lower it, and cutting out the front grills and replacing them with some mesh. Also maybe a scratch built intercooler will accompany the toyota.
Here you can see what the front bumper looks like, no detail in the grills.

Didn't like the detail so i cut the grills out.

Still needs a little more to it so i added mesh from my parts box, i think the scale looks almost perfect.

Now the wheels have me stumped, which ones?




Criticism isalways welcome, and any suggestions on what color for the altezza along with wheel choice? I was thinking silver or silverstone, with either black or gunmetal wheels.

I know what you mean about finishing projects..most of my projects are 95% there but finishing the last 5% is a killer. This should be another killer project from you.

i vote you use the 3rd set of wheels... (are they work emotions?) either way, this looks like it'll be a sweet build!

1st set of rims...but put it in gunmetal/flat black.
